Maybe the rainboots are too cheap to get water in them.<br>Then I forgot to reapply the glass cover waterproofing spray.<br>So it's not the rain that's the most painful part of a downpour.<br>It's the vision that's so bad.<br>It's like being in a room and watching it rain through a glass window.<br>But a delivery boy can't just look around.<br>Look at the line signs on the ground, look at the lights and all the signs, the speed limit, the speed camera, the turn, the one-way street.<br>And look for pedestrians in front of, behind, and to the left.<br>Depends on what's in the way. Wait, what's in the way?<br>Even every time I look for the door sign.<br>I had to lift my mask.<br>Because most of them can't see well.<br>Sometimes when it's really dark at night, I even use my cell phone flashlight to shine the light.<br>Or when the characters are very small and far away, take out your cell phone camera and magnify it by 10x.<br>It's busy enough reading this stuff when it's not raining.<br>It's even worse when it rains with a rain filter.<br>The only good thing about it is that it's a national holiday, and at night there's no cars and no people.<br>Even if I'm going 10 kilometers an hour or even stopping to look for a sign, I can take my time.<br>But also because there's no one to ask.<br>So when you get to the labyrinth of the national mansion, social mansion, or large neighborhood, you have to feel your way around it.<br>Overall, I earned 5060 (including tips).<br>But I ran about 13 hours, and my average hourly rate was 389, which is not as high as it was the other day.<br>It's already a little higher than usual.<br>I also got to experience the platform's 12-hour offline mechanism.<br>His 12 hours don't match the actual travel time.<br>And even if the countdown starts, as long as you get the order before the countdown is over, you'll be able to get the order and finish the race.<br>Because I was two orders short of 45 with 12 minutes left in the countdown.<br>This is what you look like after a run .... Forced offline. But it will be up soon?<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\"

raining and cold.<br>The UBER EATS platform gets weird starting at 10pm.<br>I got seven McDonald's orders in a row.<br>I've also received complaints from two customers.<br>I said uber eats, but the first two hours of my order didn't show up, so I had to order McDonald's instead.<br>But when I go to McDonald's, it's always the same.<br>I just witnessed that Wing Woo McDonald's took 9 orders of Happy Delivery at a time, so many that they just closed the order for an hour.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\"

until today that McDonald's actually delivers to their employees.<br>McDonald's doesn't see Happy Delivery anymore, though.<br>But when there aren't enough Panda uber eats delivery guys.<br>Their employees even come down and run the Happy Delivery themselves.<br>In one night, I saw four or five people, especially managers, go down there to give away the joys.<br>What a hard time for McDonald's employees ....<br><s>They don't have a problem with deliveries in normal weather, but they do in weather that doesn't even allow professional delivery people to run.<\/s><br>But I still got a New Year's red envelope.<br>Super Sensation<\/p><p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\"
