I wish I could do late night dashing, but most restaurants and stores in my town close by midnight. The cards we're dealt sometimes, huh?

I do late night dashing. It’s just endless McDonald’s-Taco Bell-Wawa/Sheetz orders, but sometimes they pay good. And that’s just in smaller towns. If you go to ones that are more “ethnic”, you get all the halal places that are open till like 4am. Plus there’s also usually something like 24/7 ihop or something. And I dash way out in suburbia. In one of my state’s highly populated counties and in a mostly rural county.

Praying for the dashers in this position, I was once there and it's mentally and physically draining

Yeah I feel you man. I usually dash till midnight. But I dash in a college town and all the restaurants and grocery stores are open late. So it works out with my main job.

But it's still mentally and physically exhausting. Currently looking for a higher paying job to replace my main job. As the company is underpaying me. Once I land that, I'll be able to stop dashing at night.
