SEATTLE — Since 2017, Jay Reeves has been working as a delivery driver for either Postmates or DoorDash, working, at times, seven days a week.
But recently, Reeves has taken on a traditional job and reduced his hours driving for DoorDash to avoid sporadic wages and tips.
“Sometimes it’s just a little insulting and I can’t make sense of taking orders for that little money,” said Reeves, who added that he’s made more than 5,000 deliveries in about five years of driving for the apps in Seattle and Renton.
