Yesterday, the 2nd day of CNY and we were celebrating with our friends here in SG. Around evening, we ordered food online but they failed to deliver the food to my friend's place. We contacted the HQ and they said after trying to reach the driver several times, they had no choice but to refund us the money.

But the app said food has been picked up and DELIVERED but the latter was not true else we would not need to go out to buy food from a nearby mall. Anyway, I asked my friend and he explained this had happened a few times. Because these drivers earn by per trip so the more trips they made a day, the more they earned.

Probably, the driver misjudged the distance and took my friend's order and decided not to deliver the food. We don't know but we hope he is fine.

On my way home, I thought hard about this industry and can't help feeling amazed how a food delivery business can change the lives of so many people globally, especially in China. Read this article here.

When you can make an average income of 7000 RMB per month if you really put in the long hours. Who will need a degree these days ? And with technology affecting so many parts of our lives, who is to say what trend will we be seeing in 3-5 years time let alone 10 years ?
