Droners.io bid question

[R.Perry]

Don't forget the Rule of Three: 1/3 taxes, 1/3 to the business, 1/3 in your pocket.

So, it's MUCH worse:

28.7 / 3 = 9.56 / 2 (hours) = $4.78 per hour.

If that's what you value your time and services....go fo it. Droners is for you.

(Minimum Wage in Texas is $7.25 and hour)

Well Fred that is partially true, if you lose money every time you take a job there are no taxes, also many of these folks have no business license, or insurance.
As noted above the cost of driving to the job site is a factor. What gets me is the post above stated the cost of operation of the vehicle, but the person drove for free. Because of the type of vehicle I drive, and cost of operation I now charge $1.50 cents a mile round trip and have no problem getting that.
Not I do also realize different parts of the country have different costs of living.
