Gig workers can calculate their net profit by subtracting expenses (tax withholding, fuel costs) from gross earnings; for example, a delivery driver earning $54.33 gross with $10.87 in tax withholding and $5.07 in gas expenses achieved a net profit of $38.39.

Hi everyone, it's Angel with Wandering with Angel checking in after dinner.
Um we had a big thunderstorm come through town, so I ended dinner a little early.
But I drove 2 hours and 25 minutes for dinner with six delivery runs all with Uber Eats.
My gross earnings for tonight's dinner was $54.33 for those six runs. I drove 39 miles total.
And then my expenses were I hold back 20% for tax withholding and my maintenance fund. So that is $10.87 out of the tonight's dinner.
And then my gas for my miles drove was $5.07. And that's based off of it was $4.55 today to fill up a gallon. So my net profit for dinner was $38.39.
All in all, I don't think I did too bad.
I definitely didn't make my $100 like I was planning.
But I didn't have those extra hour and a half to so. Probably still wouldn't have made it even with it, but I would have gotten a lot closer.
But you know, um I could keep trudging through the thunderstorm.
In my experience, at least here in Billings, um orders pick up. But they don't tip. Uh I don't know why when the weather turns bad people stop tipping.
But anyways, I'm going to um shut down early. I'm going to go get some dinner with my husband.
And go home and have some fun time. So you guys have a great night. Thanks for watching and supporting me.
Please uh like the video, share it, and subscribe if you haven't already and follow me along my journey. I'll be back tomorrow morning.
Starting with Spark. You have a great night.
