I make more in one night doing this than I will make in Steem blogs in all of 2019.

It's pretty easy you sign up on the Lime app as a "juicer" and order the chargers for 15 dollars each. Then around 9 or 10 at night you log on to the app and it tells you where in the city there are scooters that need charging. You track them down using GPS.

There is a button you click so the scooter makes a noise and lights up. People leave them all sorts of crazy places. I retrieve them and bring them home and charge them, as long as I put them back out before 7 AM in designated areas I get paid. The amount depends on the battery power.

The scooters are super fun to ride but I think my city may ban them after the trial period, people leave them blocking doors, and pedestrians are getting run over. Also you can can fall off them and get hurt if you aren't careful. My building might ban them from the elevators too as there are a few people juicing and the scooters take up a lot of elevator room. Its actually pretty fun gig though, my city's downtown is crazy at night, all drunk people and hobo knife fights
