The delivery executive introduced himself as Durga Meena, who used to work as a teacher for 12 years. However, he lost his job during the lockdown and started working with Zomato four months ago. While he wishes to continue to teach and is saving money to buy a laptop for online classes, his job with the temperatures rising is gruelling.
Durga is currently paying off multiple loans he had taken and is trying to save money. He makes 10,000 per month from Zomato and feels like he can earn more if he uses a bike for quicker deliveries.
