" You are too late. You fucking Indian", a guy shouted at me when I was delivering a pizza from the Uber eats.
" I'm sorry sir. I was stuck on the traffic. There was a Blue Jays game", I said politely.
" I don't fucking care of anything. If you can not do your job just let other people do," saying this, he slammed the door behind.
I heard another notification of the new order. It was from John's wings. The total distance was eight kilometer and it will pay me $ 6.75. I picked it because I had to make some money to pay my bills. I went to the restaurant and asked for the order. The guy in the white coat requested to wait for a minute. I had no options. I waited for more than ten minutes.
"Here you go, sir. thank you waiting", the lady told me when handing over the order.
" At least, you could have told me the correct waiting time. Ten minutes is not one minute" I said and left the store hurriedly. When exiting the restaurant, somebody honked from the behind and passed me showing the middle finger.
I thought it was my mistake. I was hurried to deliver the food as quickly as possible; so that, I can make another order. I have already spent hour in two orders which totals $15. If I count the gas on, it would be just $10 for an hour.
After delivering the second order, there was no notification on the screen. I parked by the MacDonald's parking lot and waited for another order. I was restless looking every time on the screen. After fifteen minutes waiting, another order popped up on the screen. It was the order of $10 for five kilometers. I picked up the order from the Subway nest to the MacDonald where I was parking. Order was ready when I arrived to the restaurant and delivered in less than fifteen minutes. It was a decent order to boost my serotonin.
As soon as I checked out the order, another order popped out for $6 and total kilometer 7.5. It decreased the serotonin level. I picked up the order after waiting for 15 minutes and embarked for the delivery. It was town house at the busy area. There were hundred s of the townhomes in that area and the road was confusing for the GPS. It circled me more than five time the same road, but I couldn't locate the house. Then I called the customer to get more specific location. But it was more confusing. The GPS directs to the location, but as soon as it arrived it reconfigures. I spent almost half an hour. I took a deep breath before throwing the food at someone's door and quit.
I called the customer service and notified that the address wasn't accurate. She gave me the link of the address. It was the same. I called the customer and informed that I couldn't find her place. She sounded grumpy on the other side, although I apologized politely and aske to cancel the order, so that she could reorder.
I lost the delivery fee of $6. I probably burned $10 gas and time. I regrated for the job I quited to drive Uber eats. It was not the same everyday. I was about the sign out for the day and go home, a notification popped up. It was $25 order for 10 kilometer. I picked up the order impulsively. It was beer delivery from the Beer store. When I went to the Beer Store, the lady handed me five boxes of beers. They were heavy. I had parked on the street. It was difficult to carry all of them to the highrise apartment.
I cancelled the order and went to the car where a city police was writing a parking violation ticket. It was $35 ticket. I counted the total income of the day. It was $35 before gas and maintenance.
I grabbed the ticket from the officer and thanked him, because there was no option. once they've written the ticket, There was not the chance to cancel it. i have to go to the court.
I came to home and deleted the Uber eats app and slept peacefully.
