"Takeaway jobs are much higher than white-collar wages." There is a very important prerequisite. The so-called white-collar workers are newcomers who have not worked for a long time, or positions with less power and less money. Even in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, there should be very few people with food delivery salary exceeding 10,000 yuan, and if it is white-collar workers (white-collar workers, backbones, elites), more than 10,000 yuan is not a great threshold.

There may be a misunderstanding here. It's not white-collar workers who sit in the cubicle and make PPTs...

Why do some people reject the job of a delivery person?

I think, first of all, it is a matter of face. The educational level of this group of practitioners is generally not high. This is a fact. The content of work skills is not high, and young people who have gone to college are reluctant to do this. Secondly, the working environment is poor, leaving early and returning late, exposed to the wind and the sun, and possibly encountering unreasonable customers, exhausting both physically and mentally.

From a career planning perspective, it will be easier to understand.

First, there is no good room for career development.

If you go to code and become a programmer, you can become a project manager, technical director, architect, etc. in the future. There are many career development directions. If you don’t want to be a code farmer, you can switch to a product manager, switch to security, and switch to a lecturer. ...or even start your own business. Increases in salary expectations, possible changes in positions, are clearly visible.

As for food delivery, the occupational ceiling is very low, and the path and possibility of growth are almost impossible. Just look at the present, if you work hard, the income may still be paid, but... what about the future?

From the perspective of career planning, takeaway is not a good choice.

Second, without the accumulation of skills, it is easy to be replaced.

The salary for food delivery seems to be good, but it is all hard-earned money. The increase in working hours basically does not bring much accumulation of skills. In other words, you cannot make yourself more valuable by doing this work. You are 25 years old today, and you have so much money. In 10 years, you will be 35 years old, and you will still have so much money, and the unit time value has not increased.

In labor-intensive industries, labor is too easy to be replaced, and there is no intention to devalue the profession. It is true that they all contribute to the society, but the value created is different. The delivery workers are mainly manual labor. .

Finally, I would like to say one more thing. This article does not intend to belittle the takeaway brother. Everyone is working hard for a living. I respect every worker.
