Transcripts
I used to regularly steal food delivery
orders a few years ago when door Dash
was the first delivery app in my city a
few years ago I signed up because I was
19 and had a car because it was the only
delivery service like that in the city I
was making nearly $11,000 every week
people tipped well and the base pay was
phenomenal $120 plus my point being I
did not need to steal the food with all
the mistakes that are made with a new
app in a new city at some point I
realized there was nothing they could do
to prove I didn't deliver food to their
home and the restaurants were still just
sitting them on a table for drivers I
wanted to see what would happen if I
marked it delivered as I drove past and
nothing happened no phone call no email
nothing I immediately started doing it
regularly I delivered like it was a
full-time job so I would do dozens of
orders a day sometimes I would always
keep at least one I started keeping
track of which restaurants I had tried
and how many homes in each neighborhood
I had falsely marked delivered just the
block not any addresses I was running
around so much I wasn't gaining weight
either I was making good money driving
around listening to Good Music Learning
the streets of my city and trying new
foods I wouldn't have known about or
sometimes be able to afford I never felt
bad about it at least not enough to stop
I did it steadily for almost 2 years and
when they started calling to ask what
happened I would just lie even after I
got a regular job I would go out on the
weekends and pick up some free to me
food that account was banned after about
6 months of the weekend deliveries I
later lost the job and started
delivering again through that same
company as well as Uber but I had
matured a little and realized I
shouldn't take what other people worked
hard to be able to afford I do feel a
little bad about it now
