Pros

You are in charge of your paycheck. What ever you can run determines your check. I was easily making $40+ running a 160. Most days I would clock out with 180-190 also making around 47 an hour.

Cons

Not too many cons. Only thing is it’s a physical job and no set schedule.but in the plus side you get your rest.

Pros

Somewhat flexible scheduling & availability

Cons

Extremely inflexible policies. Got scolded for not taking carts away from customers even after they repeatedly decline car service. Also forgot a belt once (all other parts of uniform was totally fine) and was verbally reprimanded. Company also is extremely anti-union.
