Chapter 292 Responsibility
"Stupid, connections and qualifications are useless, getting an extra two dollars is the most practical thing."
On the busy sidewalk, a Kangaroo delivery guy riding a motorcycle couldn't help but curl his lips after looking at some messages on his mobile phone.
He admitted that TT Takeaway’s benefits are very good, and even full-time riders have a basic salary and social security. The unit price of an order is similar to that of Kangaroo. In terms of regular income, after deducting the self-paid part of social security, it is still pretty good. However, the World Company is stingy and does not provide subsidies!
Kangaroos smell so good. If he works hard, earning over ten thousand yuan a month is definitely not a dream. He never dared to think about it before.
"After two years of hard work, I can save enough for a down payment and marry a wife. I don't know when Umbrella's electric vehicles will be available for sale. It's a pity that the shared electric vehicles are a bit slow..."
After wiping his nose in the cold weather, the rider looked at his motorcycle and couldn't help but sigh. Although the fuel consumption of a motorcycle cannot be compared with that of a car, it is still an expense.
But the fast speed allows me to complete more orders.
Ding Dong~Ding Dong~
'You have a new takeaway order, please check it out.'
As the pleasant sound sounds, it also means that the dining peak period has arrived, and every tip means a sum of money.
All of a sudden, the young man was full of motivation. Then he turned the accelerator and rushed out quickly, speeding towards his destination.
Bang!
He originally wanted to use his motorcycle to easily run a red light, but he ended up going too fast and lost control of the motorcycle, crashing heavily into the side of a bus, throwing himself out.
The takeaway food was also scattered all over the floor.
Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet. Although he was badly knocked unconscious, his head did not suffer serious injuries. It was his legs that were directly crushed by the motorcycle.
But fortunately, it didn't hurt...
Looking back at his L-shaped legs, the delivery guy couldn't help but look a little confused. What was going on?
Why is it out of control?
Because there was no pain, he wanted to use his hands to pull his leg back.
But soon the bus driver stopped him.
"You're crazy. What if a bone punctures an artery? Do you want to die?"
The roar made the delivery guy a little confused.
He didn't feel any pain, not because he had used 'Ankangding', but because a protective mechanism similar to the working principle of 'Ankangding' was triggered. It was because the injury was too severe that the central nervous system blocked the pain sensation to avoid panic due to pain and have a counterproductive effect.
This effect is even more significant than the analgesic effect of 'Ankangding'.
The ambulance and traffic police arrived quickly and took him to the hospital.
At this point, the pain slowly began to emerge, making the delivery guy turn pale.
"It's a comminuted fracture. I need surgery, and it's a complicated one. Notify the family."
"You are primarily responsible, so the compulsory traffic insurance will pay for it all, and the remaining 30% will be covered by the bus insurance, and the rest will be borne by you."
"For the surgery fee, you need to pay an additional 13,000, and then ask the family members to come and sign."
The continuous news made the delivery guy on the hospital bed look pale. He had never expected that this would happen!
In fact, he himself had some idea that it was the traffic police who determined that the bus was responsible for the accident. Otherwise, there would be nothing wrong in convicting him of full responsibility.
For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a surge of regret in his heart. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have been in such a hurry!
It’s really unlucky!
Thirteen thousand...
Although he had been working hard as a delivery man for a while, his savings were only a little over 10,000 yuan, and now it was all gone. He was so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe!
But this must be treated!
And I definitely won't be able to work while I'm recovering. It's said that a broken bone takes a hundred days to heal, at least three months. What will I do during this period of time?
He could only go back to the countryside and let his parents take care of him. He felt very depressed for a while, then he forced a smile and asked the nurse
"Beautiful lady, how long does it usually take me to recover? I'm in good health, so it should be quick, right? It doesn't really take a hundred days, does it?"
"One hundred days?"
The nurse was also a little surprised when she heard his words.
"Who says you can recover in a hundred days? Your case is quite serious. A hundred days may be enough for you to do some rehabilitation exercises. It will take half a year to a year to fully recover. And your injury may not be fully recovered. You must be mentally prepared."
This nurse has seen many injured people. Although she is not a doctor, she can make a rough judgment. She doesn't want the other party to have too high expectations and be disappointed.
The opponent's injuries are not just bone recovery.
Without a doubt, the nurse's words were another piece of bad news, leaving the delivery guy a little breathless.
One year! And not even a full recovery?!
Is this a direct disability?!
What should I do!
At this moment, his cell phone vibrated again. He picked it up and found that the order he was delivering and the new order he had received had been complained about for overtime. Not only would he be fined, but he also had to compensate for the meal expenses.
Suddenly, a cold chill enveloped his whole body. After his throat rolled, he quickly dialed the customer service number and explained his problem.
"That was the rider's own fault. I'm really sorry that I can't revoke the penalty. Does the rider have anything else to ask?"
The formatted customer service reply made him feel a huge sense of malice.
For a moment, the two replies he had seen before appeared in his mind.
"I understand what the friend who deleted the post meant. Only labor relations are eligible for arbitration..."
This made the delivery guy a little dazed.
There are some things that you really have no feeling about until you experience them.
After I encountered it, I felt like the sky was falling!
This made him laugh at himself so much that he filmed a self-filmed and self-narrated video, and then posted the customer service reply information on the TT platform.
Somehow, I told him that this might be of some use...
…
Originally, many delivery guys from both sides were still arguing with each other online, but overall, the World system was at a disadvantage.
After all, TT Takeaway will not be officially launched until the Lantern Festival, and now it is only recruiting special riders, and the number of people is much less than that of Kangaroo Takeaway.
At present, Kangaroo Takeaway is indeed the leader in the takeaway industry.
But at this moment, the topic about 'the delivery guy broke his bones on the way to deliver food and was deducted money' quickly became a hot search.
Both Weibo and TT immediately dominated the charts.
After all, the entry of global companies into food delivery and online ride-hailing is a hot topic now, and this matter can be said to be the focus of discussion.
When the whole thing was fully uncovered, it immediately caused an uproar.
Because it is the delivery guy's own responsibility, there is no way to wash his hands of this.
But even so, Kangaroo Takeaway's indifferent attitude still made everyone feel cold.
The other delivery guys felt even more empathy.
That’s right, the guy was driving too fast, and he received the punishment he deserved and suffered such serious injuries.
But no matter how fast he runs, he is still serving Kangaroo Takeaway.
If it weren't for the time it takes to get the order, who would be willing to run a red light?
Still deducting money?
This is too cold!
It's like driving your own car to do business for the company during working hours, and the boss keeps urging you to drive too fast and get into a car accident, and ultimately all the losses are borne by the driver himself.
The sudden public opinion here really caught Lin Xiang of Kangaroo Takeaway off guard.
Oh shit!
Is this arranged by your world company?
But then he gave up the idea of judging others by himself, as if the possibility was really small.
Because similar things have happened before.
The risks for delivery guys are indeed very high. For them, time is money, so it is normal for them to rush.
And now Kangaroo Takeaway is also discussing the issue of insurance internally.
It’s not that they care about the life or death of the seller, but they care about the safety of their own company!
It was initially determined that the delivery guy would be charged three dollars a day as insurance premium to deal with some unexpected accidents!
This is to protect you. We can’t let the company pay for it, right?
Originally this matter was still under discussion, and I wanted to look at the 'data' and 'ratio' to see if it was cost-effective.
But now that this trending search has just happened, Kangaroo Takeaway has immediately issued a statement
"We have seen the news. Although the delivery boy was responsible for this incident, our company has decided to exempt him from the fine out of humanitarianism. We are also willing to give him 5,000 yuan in consolation money as a humanitarian measure."
The first paragraph is pure blame!
In fact, it’s not that Kangaroo Takeaway has no money. Even if we have no money, covering the medical expenses is just a drop in the bucket. The subsequent loss of work and follow-up treatment are also easy to pay.
But they can't open this loophole.
Because once this loophole is opened, the future compensation will be a huge amount considering the risk factor of the delivery guy.
This time it was just a fracture. If it happened to be one of those cases where the medical expenses could easily be hundreds of thousands or even millions, it would have a huge impact.
Therefore, Kangaroo Takeaway firmly adhered to the bottom line and stated that it was just a humanitarian condolence.
Then we launched the insurance plan.
"From now on, Kangaroo Takeaway will be upgraded. Every time a rider runs an order, we will charge a 3 yuan insurance fee to relieve the rider's worries."
In fact, it is said that the insurance will solve the worries of the riders, but the scope of insurance itself is only the company's liability, not the riders.
It is equivalent to the rider paying money to buy insurance for the company!
However, most of the onlookers and the riders themselves are not aware of this.
Instead, Wang Yi, who had just returned to China to spend the Spring Festival with Liu Xiaoke and the others, saw it and sent a message
“Kangaroo Takeaway is also a company with a sense of social responsibility.”
It was an obvious compliment, but it made Lin Xiang's scalp numb.
Damn, this is just flattery!
Social responsibility, you sister!
My company just wants to make money, why should I bear this obligation ?
It’s my ability that I make money!
Although deep down he had to admit that he needed to rely on the market and policies here, and on the consumers here to get started and achieve this success.
But, this is what I deserve!
