I had been working hard and slogging my guts out, but I still wasn’t quite able to make enough to support my family. I was really in a bind and I needed to find a way to make some extra money.
That’s when I thought of doing food delivery to supplement my income. I had seen other people doing it and it seemed like a great way to make some extra cash. I decided to give it a try, so I signed up for all the food delivery services.
Managed to earn a little to cover my bills
The first few weeks went really well. I aimed to make an extra $30-$50 a day to cover expenses and I was able to make enough money to cover my bills and I even managed to put a little aside for savings. But then one night, things went wrong.
I was riding my bike on the footpath and I was in a hurry to get to my next delivery. I wasn’t paying attention and I didn’t see my surroundings. Before I knew it, an enforcement officer had stopped me and given me a fine.
The fine cost me almost a week or two of my hard work
My earnings were all gone in an instant. I was devastated. I had worked so hard and all my money was gone just like that. I was so angry and frustrated. I had put in so much effort and all of it was for nothing.
I felt like I had been cheated. I had worked so hard and followed all the rules and because of a moment of folly, I committed a mistake which cost me whatever I had earned.
I was so discouraged that I considered quitting my food delivery job. I just didn’t have the heart to keep going, knowing that one mistake could cost me all my hard-earned money.
I was really disappointed in myself. I had worked so hard and I had been so close to making a success of my side job. I had thought I had found a great way to supplement my income, but it all came to nothing.
It was a hard lesson to learn, but I learned it well. I still do occasional food delivery jobs, but I’m much more careful now.
I make sure to always follow the rules and I don’t take any chances.
