Since this was my last topic on my old account, I wanted to give my thoughts looking back on app delivery.
Well it was a job, kinda. The money wasn't really enough to cover expenses and living. You needed special insurance as I mentioned, aswell as to consider all that extra wear on your vehicle. It's important to factor in that I was homeless, living out of my vehicle, so my expenses were far lower than normal. I had undiagnosed autism, and the flexible hours and fast pace and clear and simple goals, and sense of freedom and independence made it something my spacey mind could do and enjoy, and not get fired from. Infact they were so hungry for drivers there was a sort-of job security in that regard. After a car crash while driving to see family, I grew a seed of anxiety about driving, and now I don't drive at all. If I did drive, I don't think I'd do it again for many reasons. The pay would have to be better, and I'd want to use a company car although that would mean a regular schedule, and I've never been able to be kept at, let alone thrive at a structured job. Now days I am unemployed but housed thanks to social security income and try to live within those means as a roommate. My "condition" gets more pronounced with each year, I often don't know why I walked into a room, or realized I've neglected some basic chores or hygiene for weeks. Very recently, things are getting better.
Now I've got more routines that keep me on track, I am still apathetic about exercise and keeping my room clean, but I am starting to make progress. I'm getting used to my recent move, which was a big setback in terms of pulling myself together. I'm starting to do yoga and go on nature walks, and for the first time, feel genuinely - positive.
