China’s food delivery industry is well developed. In addition to delivering food, deliverymen now have a new job of “throwing garbage”. JD.com has begun testing deliverymen to help customers throw garbage, but the reward for each order is only 0.5 yuan.
According to China’s “Jiupai News”, the Internet revealed that JD.com has launched the task of helping deliverymen to throw garbage in Beijing, Suqian, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Chongqing, Zhengzhou, Suzhou, Nanchang, Harbin, Qingdao, Shijiazhuang and other cities, and encouraged deliverymen to actively ask customers whether they need help throwing garbage when delivering food.
JD.com’s public relations department confirmed this today, but helping customers throw garbage is still in the small-scale testing stage, and deliverymen are voluntary. The current fee during the test period is 0.5 yuan per order, and customers can give deliverymen tips according to the situation.
However, this plan has attracted many complaints, such as “See? Liu Qiangdong doesn’t treat people as human beings”, “Takeaway in the left hand and garbage in the right hand”, “This feels very unhygienic”, “Continuing to deliver takeaway after throwing away the garbage, isn’t it disgusting”, and “If JD.com actually launches this service, I won’t dare to order takeout from JD.com.”
