I made $250 in tips in less than 15 hours of work over three days. I am very happy with that. I saw an ad on craigslist for a delivery guy and there I was that same day and training that same night.

That is what I love about small mom and pop operations. They do everything under the table and they speed up the hiring process by making on the spot decisions.

I never thought that delivery would be 1. Fun, 2. Profitable, or 3. Easy

Generated and suppressed demand.

Eight years ago, I wrote about my theory of restoring struggling teams, which came down to four steps: A team is falling behind if each week their backlog is longer than the week before. Solve by hiring more. A team is treading water if they’re able to get...
