"for the first 50 deliveries, they suck you in by giving you great offers with big tips so you think "wow i could actually make good money doing this." then you reach 50 deliveries and the algorithm wizard changes his tune. 80% of the offers are customers who live 10-15 miles away with a $0-3 tip."
