I sometimes deliver to the same clients every day, but it’s a good mix of old and new. I’ve even made friends with my regulars.
I have to admit and am embarrassed by an incident a few days ago. I have a running injury that sometimes limits my range of motion. Stairs have been a challenge. I delivered a Safeway order to a client a few days ago and she wanted me to bring heavy cases of water up several flights of stairs. I admitted to her that I didn’t know if I could, to which she replied, “Then you shouldn’t be doing the job.” I said, “You are absolutely right,” and I carted two big cases of water up the stairs for her. Fortunately, I was no worse for wear because of it, but she was absolutely right. So now, I try to stick to restaurant deliveries. They’re pretty safe!
