If I find out which tech company sent out an email recommending standing desks to all employees currently working from home (aka literally everyone) ... Retribution will be swift. The standard standing desk configuration for this suddenly popular brand i s 320 pounds... Split up between one large box for the desk top, and three small but heavy boxes for legs, supports and motors. Probably delivered 8 0 since the CV scare began. I have suspicions that Google is the culprit behind all these orders, as a ton of Google-branded monitors are shipping out to these addresses as well . .. The only good news is that none of these are going to apartments.
Oh well. 201 stops. Almost hit the mythical 30 stops/hour. Sprinting to/from each stop, no breaks, peeing in a bottle... but it still wasn’t enough. Sigh. Someday... Still h ome before five. Tomorrow.... I enter salary negotions for a bigly p romotion. Shweet. As always, I’ll request a fancy title as part of the deal. We’ll see what happens. Still loving it here since switching groups. Although.... Two months of six days/week is wearing an eentsy bit thin.know
God I love having access to data like this. If only it was more granular....
Master one route, and you’re worth a lot. Master all of them... Money will flow towards you like water. Get to the point where you can hop on any route sight unseen and deliver everything? You’ll be in demand at every contractor, and be able to set your own price. Those are the guys making $250k as delivery drivers, with 40hr weeks. Absolutely mind-boggling

Currently hit with +20% volume. Thanks, Obama!

But the load is light because it’s all toilet paper.

You laugh, but these all sold. These we re ~$11 apiece at my local Rite Aid, and likely cheaper in a big box store:
Plenty of similar on ebay too, and no doubt more on Amazon.

No. It's heavy because the entire tech industry suddenly needs to setup home offices. They're not buying ikea furniture :(

No, but it feels like 90% of the way there. March is normally the 3rd lowest volume month, and it's currently the 3rd highest and will likely pass November to take 2nd place too. We’ll see what happens in the coming months...

That’s because Ikea is trash.

My Ikea desk is bent in the middle, and wobbly. I think it’s unlikely to be making the move whenever I change apartments.

I can't judge. My desk is a whiteboard on top of sawhorses

Not sure if delivering all those multi-box desks is worse or having to interact with homebound tech bros at every stop.

Definitely the tech bros. Thank God 99% of the loot I can just drop off at the front door without interacting

For every stereotypical tech bro, there's a surprisingly kind old-money grandmother. Balances out

Getting a 300# standup desk and multiple Google branded monitors.
