Most of all, it hit the food delivery companies. Back in 2019, a typical day consisted of waking up and commuting to work. A delivery rider would do his job by delivering parcels around town.
Changing Work Conditions
At the same time, the rest of the staff would do their jobs at their desks. Making sure all queries are answered and all complaints are solved. However, fast forward to 2020, there is no office to go to.
The workday consists of their dining table turned into a work desk, and lunch breaks are being used to do laundry. Now the day is filled with conference calls and stable network connections. Instead of timely delivery of food, they are more concerned about contactless delivery.
Each and every person is going through this pandemic in some way or the other. Yet, the saddest part is not being to look forward to weekend plans. Is the week spent looking forward to nothing at all?
If the circumstances have pushed us to stay in, it doesn’t necessarily mean that we deprive ourselves of happiness? And nothing equates to happiness better than good food.
