 After this streak of deliveries, Karyna treated herself to lunch from Starbucks, enjoying coffee and a sandwich during a brief break.

The next order is actually from Tacotarian. There are two big bags. [They are] paying $17 for six miles,' she added.

In a comment, she disclosed her usual working hours on weekends from 9 am to 5 pm, resulting in earnings ranging from $150 to $250, depending on the duration.

Summing up her day, Karyna reported a total income of $172, with a $25 expenditure on gas. Followers, intrigued by her Uber Eats experiences, commended her on the successful side hustle and sought more details about her deliveries.

One person said: You should add how much gas you lose, I remember one of my Uber drivers saying how they have to spend more than they make.

A second wrote: So the money you making is this tips or you get paid for the trip? I wanna apply but confused.

While a third commented: She earns between $150 & $200... Let's split that in the middle at $175. $175 divided by 8 hours working comes to less than $22 an hour. Minus gas, wear and tear on her vehicle... 

Someone else said: That's not a lot, plus you have to consider the wear and tear on your car, but the appeal of this job would be that you work when you want and aren't beholden to a schedule.
