In Eight Hours of Work on the Streets of São Paulo, Driver Details Rides, Fuel Expenses, Car Wash, and Final Balance.
At 6:00 AM, a rideshare driver began another day of work on the streets of the eastern part of São Paulo.
With a temperature of 12 °C, he started driving for both Uber and 99, still with a zero balance on both platforms. The first ride didn’t take long to happen.
Additionally, the driver took the opportunity to welcome new followers to his channel, where he shares the routine, mistakes, and successes of the profession.

The village of 300 residents in the middle of the Minas Gerais mountains that survives on rural unity, sewing, its own school, and a routine built on collective effort; meet Noiva do Cordeiro.
The goal, according to him, is to show management and earnings strategies, always with transparency.
For him, it is important to learn from real experiences and adapt what works best for each worker.
By noon, he made a balance of the morning. By 12:00 PM, he had worked five hours, driven 76 km, and earned R$ 232.64.
The calculation showed R$ 45.03 of average earnings per hour and R$ 3.06 per kilometer.
During this period, the Uber platform accounted for most of the earnings, while 99 had not registered any rides yet.
Closing and Results
At 3:00 PM, the shift ended at a car wash near home.
The day’s earnings totaled R$ 343.40, with 13 rides completed in 8h28 of work and 120 km driven.
The average per trip was R$ 26.42, while the earnings per hour were R$ 40.56 and per kilometer were R$ 2.86.
The day’s costs amounted to R$ 108.20, leaving a net balance of R$ 235.20, which is 68% of the earned amount.
The main expense was a full car wash, costing R$ 60, along with R$ 43.20 for fuel and R$ 5 for coffee.
Moreover, the professional highlighted the importance of keeping detailed records. Measuring results by hour, kilometer, and time of day helps understand real performance.
According to him, the average of R$ 40 per hour has become standard, although he considers that R$ 50 per hour would be ideal.
Analysis and Future Strategies
The assessment was that the morning could have been better, as during other peak periods it was common to reach R$ 60 per hour.
The decline was related to the time of year, marked by school vacations.
To compensate, the way forward is to test different hours and seek new strategies, such as varying the types of rides or adjusting the start of the journey.
At the close of the day, the message was clear: learning comes from comparing results.
Isolated perception can be misleading, and only with numbers can one identify points for improvement.
Gratitude was extended to the followers who accompanied the entire account, reinforcing the proposal to share real experiences and help other rideshare drivers optimize earnings and management.
