And I just lost the whole post…. Here we go again.
I am finally settling in on the format of this thing…. Before it's too late!
I'm just going to report on my daily experience… why took so long? Because I was deliberating whether it's worth writing about and reading… and I decided that there's only one way to find out. Well actually… anyways… and it is like another job after the regular job… which I often don't feel like doing - I agree with the “One job should be enough” people and support them… here is my after-job
3:19 - 19mi accd Google Maps
4:40 online 3:05 active delivery accd Caviar Courier app
$30 per hour carrying stuff (!!!)
That's with the Friday night bonuses and all
Yes, after all of the deliberations I've decided to give 10 percent back. Why? Cuz I said so. Bullshit rights. And to encourage everyone to help everyone.
And reflection of my actual experience - I've decided to try and do it daily instead of just giving a place a bad wrap cuz I showed up at a bad time… so these are delivery notes.
Papolote - a great place for food and work - never really had a problem. They are busy and oftentimes very busy so it's not always an instant pickup but they've always been nice about it. This location is kind of an in-between currently though I'm sure it'll be central soon enough as Mission is filling up
Wise and Sons on 24th - made me wait at least 10 minutes this time… nothing crazy - all part of the job. Overall, I like Wise and Sons… but I love everyone
Barzotto - I am liable to give a bad judgement here - all due to their wonderful hiring policy… and I've caught a few looks back.. “we know we look good”… but that doesn't stop them from being polite and efficient and providing great service to guests and delivery workers most of the time. The way it's position is a little backwards - pickup is on the other side of the bar - far from the door. Gives me an excuse to mingle with the high end crowd. I gotta eat here some day
The Grove Hayes Valley - good old Grove - nice and easy most of the time
Lers Ros Thai on Hayes - 3 orders - I love working for Thai restaraunts and these guys always run a tight game
Taqueria Cazadores - the tiny trailer on the tiny corner of one of the biggest intersections in the city! Took over 10 minutes this time but usually pretty fast. People order this from all over town - quite often have to go up past 4th Street. Gotta eat here one day
