If no need spend on employee benefits, it would be the best business model for tycoons. Many just say Bo Bian to everything in their lives as long as it has Power over them. The lower strata of society can become a willing partner to this game. Too many will to risk it all for pittance. Bo Bian.
Well said. That's the thing that most people misunderstand. Gig work is an entirely different way to approach earning money. So gig workers cannot have the expectancy for the benefits to be the same as in a traditional job without the dictatorship of being in a workplace.
@@grabadventures my point was if permanent jobs also adopt a no employee benefit system. Some gig platforms in sg can set requirements that workers have to do how many to get "incentives" so whatever trip given they do not dare to cancel more than 3. So this way, workers have to work like employees without employee benefits. This is a brilliant model. People will just say Bo Bian and accept. Lan Lan
I feel the pain too when it's heavily raining during my panda shift, no choice but to paused my shift and wait for the rain to stop, affected and lower my actual vs planned hours percentage, but SAFETY FIRST 😊
Bro，great efforts you have put into your channel. ❤ I have never used Kol Max before. It's said there is a water seepage into the controller issue due its design. I seen you and SGEats dude used it before. How did you solve the water seep lage issue? Is it that bad?
Thx for the compliment ❤️ ! There is a slanted drainage hole at the bottom bracket. After riding in the rain I will tilt the ebike to the back and let any excess water drain out. But usually due to the slanted design there is very minimum water pooling in it. By the way the ebike I am riding in this video is X16. My kol max i sold it to SGeats.
@grabadventures Big Thanks Bro for sharing your valuable insights. This experience sharing should be useful to many considering Kol Max. Wishing you Good Earnings and safe riding as always. ❤️👍😊
All permanent jobs can adapt towards gig economy model by first hiring people on Contracts instead of Permanent headcount. After that, it will be easier to adopt a no employee benefit business model. Everything the worker eat himself.😅
Hardworking As ever Gman Not easy & Most Uncomfortable To work with During rain For walker For my case I respect you But base On my style Of writing You roughly know Who l am Your favourite walker Of all time 😱
My experience is Whole body Is wet Due to heavy rain Even with Portable umbrella From head To clothes To socks To shoe Still work Due to no choice situation Slow & steady Mode Just to deliver To customer place 😊
I am Proud Of you Gman You have Grown up To be Good example For everyone To learn on Even though I am no longer In your chat group Sometimes Or Occasionally I will write Words Of Encouragement To you 😊
Waa u rlly can ride well in rain tho..i ever end up caught in rain twice bt tt was back in 2020 when trying grab. Still considering to once again try to ride in rain...
You will need to have a thermal bag. It is to keep the food hot or cold. It need not necessarily be foodpanda. You can check out MFC bags if you are looking at a brandless bag which is not so obvious.
We need to work hard for our money but need not have to put our lives on the line. What can't be earned today can be earned tomorrow. So, stay safe and healthy.
I am using a total of 3. A chest mount akaso v50x. A rear mount with insta360 and a third which i shift around on various parts of the ebike which is another akaso v50x
I need to buy a rainproof helmet soon. The standard bicycle skeleton helmet...yeah it doesnt work in rainy weather especially since i wear glasses. Any recommendations on which helmet to buy?
I wear a baseball cap and a helmet on top of that. It works well for me since i keep 3 baseball caps which i can swap one out whenever i want to wash it.
@@grabadventures to many, everything jn sg is Boh Bian one. Boh Bian is a psychological surrender without a fight, discussion, debate nor even thinking about thinking
It would be good if SG implements , at least at some junctions where it makes sense, a Bicycle Allowed to move off first as seen in this YT video searchable by key words Idaho Stop Law. Slow vehicles like ebikes cause delays to cars moving off. Even buses are too fast moving off that unmodified ebikes due to pedal-assist mechanism.
No cover on x16’s battery during heavy rain will not have any damage on battery? Just bought x16 and intending to cover the top with plastic during rain
But if riders are not willing to risk their lives in the rain, will food delivery Co collapse and their boss able to pay for big house?😅 just wondering.if killed , got compensation? Many boast good income and see what's happening now. Don't keep telling people how well the pay. Its unwise
@LonganLee there are 3 types social media posts on earnings. One is without context. The other is for boastful purposes and it can be misrepresented. The third is a fairly well balanced approach which shows how hard a rider has to work to rcv consistent earnings. Finally there is people like myself who actually don't earn that much.
@@grabadventures no worries bro. By boasting, I was referring to the many on the roads and those that boasted in the news. Your channel is good honest and not boastful 👍 Whether these are actors or being used to attract more to ride for delivery Co's is God knows. Their earnings are not as high as reported in terms of missing components like 13th month bonus, paid leave like MC, paternal leave, maternal leave, AWS, employer cpf contributions, insurance are also sometimes paid by employers. Delivery people are on their own. Add these up plus costs of maintenance and spare batteries, its not as glorious as they boasted. By boasting it could be real, it could be just one time spike in fares collected or it could mean average over many months. Many are boasting to comfort themselves as its a rather low class work as they have to work under hot sun , in the rain and give people an image of lower rung income earners. Surely some will look down on them. Some even shun them and want contact less delivery or avoid taking the lift with them. The SIDE EFFECT or Backlash these minority Boasting community has created is Too Many Riders are joining and many have a full time job but due to rising cost and high COE to pay , higher gst and electrical and water bills , they are constantly under pressure to do this part time especially during weekends. This is why some grab riders are having to wait for orders nowadays compared to the past. Also could be the post covid where more are not ordering as much and school holidays
Food delivery model of business is the best for business owners because they make use of : 1. Vehicles fully owned and paid and maintained by people whom they have no employer-employee obligations. 2. No need pay for their Leave and 13mth and AWS. 3. No need provide then office space and building to work in. 4. No need spend on Dinner and Dance. 5. The riders risk their lives just to earn a few bucks. If this is not the best business model, what is? You mean, a business model that has to pay for all the above? Imagine all other businesses operate the same model and no need spend on employee benefits. If can work on food riders, then possible to work on many other businesses.😅

Orders tend to be better when it rains, but i totally agree that safety and out lives is more important than the potential earnings
Yep. It's a fine line we need to balance
“even my underwear also wet… okay la i wear boxers la”
I CRACKED UP SO BAD 😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣 got me at the "every single quock of my body is wet, even my underwear is wet" - feel you man, ride safe GMan

Oh wow. I hv never actually thought of that in those terms.
@@grabadventures it's possible I think. Independent thinking saves ourselves from being brainwashed like the mob
By your frequent videos on earnings , its good for food delivery cos to recruit more riders. 👍👏
I don't think my earnings are good. In fact for regular viewers they would understand the amount of effort it takes to earn even this average amount.
@@grabadventures I see. I like your channel but just hope you are not doing the delivery Co's a recruitment service , inadvertently of course
@LonganLee i understand you point of view. Thank you for sharing 👍🏻
@@grabadventures 🙏
You should offline when go bukit gombak
Actually i booked the bukit batok nw shift.
@@grabadventures cck no shift?
@keewoei5329 i just wanted to try bukit batok.
Wow... really mad weather eh. So, at the end of the shift, when you get home, do you bathe the bike first or yourself first? :)
That's a good one! 😆 ofc i wash the one which is most precious to my wife. The ebike.
Safety first! And also if ebike need to take more care in rain ☔ stay safe all for monsoon season!

Don't try it in heavy weather. It's just not worth it.
If I do Foodpanda walker without bag can right

😂 I go invent waterproof boxers
I will be your first customer! 🤣
@@grabadventures 😂 maybe waterproof pants better then water can't get on underwear haha 😂. Usually water proof stuff quite warm
Gman, after riding in rain your ebike still ok? I thinking of getting x16
👋🏼 yep. There does not seem to be anything wrong with it. Still works as usual.
It didn’t rain at woodland on Friday.
It was raining crazy at bukit batok and bukit gombak 😔
Haha I saw. My side not even one drip of rain
I need to buy a rainproof helmet soon. The standard bicycle skeleton helmet...yeah it doesnt work in rainy weather especially since i wear glasses. Any recommendations on which helmet to buy?

Hi grab adventure what hp are u using? Waterproof hp?
Hi bro. It's Samsung A42 5g. I use it together with nillkin hardcase protector and liquid screen protector.
Hi bro, can I check your raincoat from grab is it breathable or you will feel hot in the body?
Hi! May I know what is your current Grabfood Tier? I can't seems to get any order on Emerald Tier during weekdays :(
I am the lowest tier at emerald
With too many in the news how "well" they are paid risking their lives, too many are doing it part time over weekends. Monkey see , monkey do.

Bro, how you prevent your phone from getting touch screen from rain?
I decrease my phone touch screen sensitivity in android settings.
Customer like to order from far far merchant 😂
😆 🤣
What do you use to cover your e bike battery? 😅
I no longer cover the x16 battery as the seat saddle provides sufficient protection
No cover on x16’s battery during heavy rain will not have any damage on battery? Just bought x16 and intending to cover the top with plastic during rain
@prohydrux5416 i think u should cover it if u think it offers better protection.
@@grabadventures noted! Thank you for your reply! Have a good day! 😊
@timothyboey5164 you are most welcome
Is your phone waterproof?
Does the raincoat actually helps you from getting your inner shirt wet?
Light to moderate rain is fine. But heavy storms such as the one in this video will definitely get wet.
Rule #1 in food delivery : $5 to cycle in heavy rain isn’t worth your life
It definitely isn't
But if riders are not willing to risk their lives in the rain, will food delivery Co collapse and their boss able to pay for big house?😅 just wondering.if killed , got compensation? Many boast good income and see what's happening now. Don't keep telling people how well the pay. Its unwise

Woodlands to Sembawang? That's crazy bro!

Now these days order are very very slow. Many riders complaint they don't get many order like before.
