Part 6/9:
Throughout his month-long delivery stint, Alex encountered numerous experiences—both rewarding and challenging. He noted that while some deliveries were as simple as handing over a package, others required more effort, especially when dealing with age-restricted items like alcohol. The routines soon began to feel repetitive despite each delivery being unique in its own way.
As he settled into the role, Alex also learned resilient navigation skills, improved his confidence while confronting irate customers, and adapted to the physical demands of the job. The hidden stresses of being a delivery driver became evident, including encounters with aggressive dogs and the pressure of motorists who grew impatient behind him when he had to stop.
