      There seems to be something seriously wrong with the way jobs are allocated now. A number of pickups is from another area, collect and deliver to the area I am waiting at. That's like twice the distance but I get paid only for the return journey.

    I love food delivery platforms so much, I am gonna be generous and give them a solution for free how to afford the cpf contributions to younger workers:
    1. Lower the fare given. Every order you save a bit then you use this to pay them as cpf. They will be so grateful they kneel down and cry with tears of happiness.
    2. Make them run longer distances for the same fare.
    3. Cut their fares a bit more and if they meet say 2000 orders in 3 mths, then give them AWS or pension using these savings. Hope some don't make the quota and you say terimah kasih for saving you from having to pay them that incentive🤭 They will think its like full time job.
    4. Don't worry, many will just say Bo Bian as they have surrendered since 1980. Just kidding. But you get my point😅 many Lan Lan one. They will find all imaginable excuses to avoid confronting the issues. Self Preservation = a pile of loose sands. The Mob has no power.

      @grabadventures  10 місяців тому

      Roo is the smallest among the 3 platforms. Plus it is hard to activate an account with them due to the waiting period. I know there is a significant portion of grab and panda riders who keep it as a standby platform when fees, incentives are high or when they are unable to get orders on their primary platform.
      There is also a dedicated portion of riders who know how to maximize their earnings in specific zones who do roo full time.

Too many will do it when their mentality is Bo Bian which means they surrendered to the fate. This means without a fight, they surrendered. If you think you can fly, some will take off and jump. It's Belief. So Bo Bian is a Lie to oneself when they have not really done anything to address the issue and are being dishonest out of Fear of confronting the issue which psychologically crippled them to the point of surrender.

Let's say you have to make 20 orders a day to get $20 incentives. But where does this money come from? By magic? No, it must be all within the profit and loss calculations. What they can pay you is all within calculations. Let's say I can actually pay you $7 an order. But I want a way to make you do more orders for me. "My idea" 😉😉😉 is I WITHHOLD $1 from your each fare received since you will accept it as , let's say, I make a rule that you cannot reject more than 3 orders to "earn more" by way of incentives. So you will take all the orders given no matter you like or not. When 20 orders done, you feel so grateful and a tear flowed from a corner of your eye as you see your "$20" incentive. So this is purely my imaginated idea not referring to any platform. How do you like it? Deserve a Nobel prize?
