Short answer-DoorDash

What are you doing this evening?

This was actually a prompt from a few days ago, but I want to share a short story.

I started DoorDash about a month ago. You start to recognize other Doordashers hanging out, waiting for orders.

I’ll start conversations with them, just to keep myself entertained.

Hanging out in front of the York City McDonald’s, where shootings are frequent and food is slow, I nodded to a guy probably in his late 20s with a few face tattoos. I asked “dashing”?

He replied, “yes”, with a sigh.

I stated, “yeah me, too. I have student loans I want to pay off before I retire.”

He replied, “oh yeah!” with enthusiasm. And added, “I have to pay off my fines and restitution so probation will let me leave this shit state.”

I raised my eyebrows with full sincerity, and even nodded, replying, “I hope that works out for you.”

He said “thanks” and went onward in his dashing.

I have to say, Dashing is quite the experience.

😂 P.

Go ahead...take a swing. I'll duck and listen.
