There are many families that are business owners and employees that are asking the question, “What are we supposed to do when we have no income and the stimulus money and income guarantees, and or unemployment have run out? It is truly disheartening that most people want to work and to be self sufficient and may not be permitted to do so. Their guaranteed income or unemployment will soon run out and then what do they do?

I live in Arizona and it is just barely opening up little by little. Most fast food restaurants are still drive through only even though they could allow people to go inside if they wanted to. The fact that the restaurants that are open are drive through has increased the demand for delivery services like Postmate. There are numerous ads for various city and town locations for Postmates. The Postmate employee uses their own vehicle and is a private contractor , their only requirements are that the employee have a dependable vehicle and a smart phone and be honest. There are ads for Postmates on the internet where anyone can apply. Postmates will tell you if they are interested in hiring you or not? If they say you fit their requirements they send a kit out right away Fed Ex which includes a debit card. There are also several You Tube presentations from actual sales people that tell you what they did to be successful. From looking at those presentations, it is fairly obvious delivering for Post Mates is not for everyone and it is more supplemental income than a dependable full income source. The employee will see a map on their phone with the restaurants marked the a notation as to whether they have any orders to be delivered. If the order is open to be delivered the salesperson accepts the order on their on the Postmates ap on their smart phone The map shows the restaurant locations and if they have an order. If the person is near that location, they would accept on their phone and head towards the restaurant for the pick up. Postmates gives the employees a debit card in the event they have to pay for some orders and get reimbursed. Most of the time the person ordering gives the place a credit card number and pays in advance. Postmates employees are allowed to receive tips. Postmates employees also do grocery shopping for people. In that case they need to pay for the order with the debit card and collect from the person. From the testimonials on You Tube it sounds like the average income was about $15 an hour. With tips some days, some said they made as much as $25 an hour and periodically got a real big tip. One fellow said he got a $75 tip one day. Most of the deliveries are in the afternoon , evening , and some late at night.

Safeway in our area is always hiring stockers, checkers, and courtesy employees. Amazon is hiring people with good driving records and a CDL to drive their Prime delivery trucks. There are several courier services for many types of businesses that are looking for delivery people.

There are also jobs for a security persons , cleaning persons for an auto dealership, customer service person(work from home), train as a truck driver, insurance sales person, etc.

Some of the Customer Service positions are either for reservations for hotels, or to help people navigate websites for various businesses.

I mention these jobs because a lot of people have no idea when their work situation is going to stabilize. When a person gets a dependable good paying job, the above jobs will probably be a thing of the past for that person.

Good luck our sincere prayers that you might be blessed while we are getting through this difficult time in our lives.
