Amazon Flex - flexible p/t work
Hey All--
I know a lot of us are on the prowl for easy, flexible ways to earn extra income.
Amazon is rolling out a new program where Prime customers can order items from an Amazon warehouse and have them delivered in 1-2 hours. They are currently hiring drivers for this program, but only in certain areas. Drivers choose the hours/days they want to work and are paid $18-$25/hour.
It is already live in Seattle and is expanding soon to Manhattan, Baltimore, Miami, Dallas, Austin, Chicago, Indianapolis, Atlanta, and Portland. However, even if you aren't in one of those cities...like me 
...you can also sign up to be notified if they start the program in your area.
This is a Washington Post article that describes the program and there is a link to sign up within the article:
Re: Amazon Flex - flexible p/t work
That is hilarious! I love it. And how environmentally conscious.
I really want two pet pygmy goats. I think they are the cutest little things. They're extremely social, so they're aren't happy if there is just one. But, alas, I live in an urban environment and don't have an acre+ for them to roam around on. Plus my H loves his garden and even pygmies would scarf that down in 10 minutes. Maybe someday.
That's awesome your family did the goat thing, @hoffse! It's all the rage in the conservation world right now.
Gonna go full nerd here....
Did it violate interstate commerce? I'm seeing a lot of state by state bans of potentially invasive plants (barberry, butterfly bush) but I'm unsure whether they refer to commercial growing or just selling.
Interesting! And sad but true-certain plants, once they're out, there's really no going back.
But will their policy cover only Liability coverage or will it also cover comprehensive or collision claims? Just something to check into. I would hate to see someone take a job doing this not checking out all the details and then have an accident and end up in a worse situation then they were before they took on the job for extra money.
I need to keep an eye open for when they hire more drivers. They automatically add a tip to your order. You can change it if you want, but I'm sure most people don't even notice it. And it's an extra $8 that they added. If you get $15-25 per hour plus those types of tips, that's a lot of money for a small side job. I could even see doing this one night a week or one weekend day.
