Tons of Money Ventures on 11-11-17

I guess 11-11 is a lucky day!

Today in dank money land while logged into Uber, I started driving at about 4:50pm. My first hour and a half of rides were all surged and then I got a ride to Des Plaines from the Ogalvie train station. I ended up getting an Uber Eats order that took about an hour because the restaurant messed up the order (and gave me a free soda) and I stopped for gas and to the bathroom before picking up the food. It was also almost a 15min drive each way and I got mildly lost on the way there because I had no idea where then place was and had to make an educated guess. At least they gave me a $3 tip. I then ended up at Lake Forest College/Lake Bluff. When I ended up getting to Lake Forest College a second time, I ended up getting a ride to Schaumburg with 3 football players and a female who I talked to about life for awhile. The subsequent ride after that, I went from Schaumburg to the loop for a nice long adventure. By that time I needed to pick up my roommate friend from work as it was almost 11pm. As I was about to turn my app off, I received multiple 1.7x surge pings because a concert just got out at the Chicago Theater. The very last ping ended up being a 1.7x surge fare long trip 45+min ride and I decided to take it (sorry roommate friend). The ride ended up being $52 from the loop to the Naperville train station because these young parents had to get home and not spend as much on a babysitter even though the Uber ride cost more than waiting an extra hour at Union Station. Thanks guys! That was my biggest fare in awhile! I was going to go home, but didn't want to drive home from Naperville without a passenger and turned on my destination filter. I ended up getting a ride from downtown Naperville to further east in Naperville and decided to head home with my destination filter still on. I was driving home and got a ping in Lombard. As I'm pulling up to the condo complex, I drive around twice until I find the right place. I eventually get there and wait for the passengers for awhile. As I'm contemplating canceling, 2 men walked into my car. It was one of their birthdays and I took them to a strip club in Stone Park. As I pulled into the rideshare drop off area, a nice elderly man asks me how many people I dropped off and proceeded to tell me how you receive $10 for each person you drop off. He also gave me a bunch of free coupons to get free cover for entry into the club. After receiving a $20 bill, I turned my app off at around 12:50am and got home around 1:30am. 

What a day! There were a few times Uber and Lyft were turned on simultaneously, but Uber got me a ride first. No airport rides. I drove 8 hours, almost 200 miles and 3/4 tank of gas. I ranged from Lake Forest to Naperville, received some tip money as well, and made over $250 before gas. One thing I realized driving is that I'm paying close to the amount or more in gas than my rent. What the actual fuck? Anywho, time to relax. I earned it! Until tomorrow, oh so lovely road!
