Well hello! I think the title says it all, but let me start from the beginning and give some context, shall we? You can call me Joe, I have a good full-time job. I like my job and life is good. While my day job pays for my family expenses, I have been thinking about a side hustle – because who doesn’t like extra money? That, and I had a few short term goals as well. For example, with the money from part time job I could pay off my smaller loans or buy the gadgets I like – I like gadgets! I like driving, and I drive fast – at the same time I always obey the law wink wink!
So about a year ago, I tried Uber for a few months. I loved it mostly because I got to meet new people, and enjoyed chatting with them. Uber might be good in bigger cities, but in the small, compact valley I live in, it wasn’t that good, and people didn’t always tip. So I thought “Maybe I’ll deliver food”. I tried Uber Eat…and fuck that shit! Don’t even get me started! While this is not a how-to-make-extra-cash type of blog, after some research, I decided to try pizza delivery, and here I am.
As I said, I’m only doing pizza delivery part-time, and unless it suddenly turns into a lucrative income, it’s only temporary. During my short time delivering pizza, some scary and funny stuff has happened. So, I decided to share them with all of you. As of now, this is a temporary blog, and I will update it as long as I work there. Also, this blog is meant to be funny and sarcastic, so please don’t get fucking offended.
After I applied online and did this stupid self assessment thing, I, with a bunch of other new hires, attended an orientation. The most important part of the orientation and training videos was safety. They went over different scenarios (all true by the way). They talked about suspicious orders, suspicious addresses, fake phone numbers, and how one driver ended up in an empty parking lot, got beat up, and they stole his car. When we heard these stories, another new driver and I were like, “What kind of moron goes to an empty parking lot?”. But you know what? We spoke too soon!
Anyway, while those videos and scenarios were sometimes funny or stupid, they made me worry. Long story short, we watched some training videos and went on a couple of rides with other drivers. From there….it was my turn to be your “Delivery Specialist” (you gotta love my title) and deliver your order!
Inherently Funny!
