Another good read:
I forgot ₹80,000 cash in an uber, and it’s the best thing that happened to me today.
I forgot the bag with cash in the uber and carried on with my day as usual, until evening.
I had literally forgotten that I even had that bag with me, but suddenly in the evening, it hit me that “where’s the cash?”
I searched my house, looked everywhere, called everywhere, and concluded that I must have left it in the uber.
I lost all hope that I’d get my cash back, but still I called the driver, and the phone said “switched off”.
The moment I cut the call and tried again, my doorbell rang. It was the uber driver.
A smile came on my face, and there was sweat and stress on his face.
He told me he wasn’t able to call me because his phone got stolen.
He remembered where he dropped me, so he came here and took neighbour’s help in finding my house.
He returned the ₹80k to me even on the day when his phone got stolen which he needs to earn his livelihood.
My eyes were glittering as it was surreal that how could somebody be so ethical and moral?
I offered him a ₹15,000 tip and said it was for him to buy a new phone, but he directly denied it without even thinking.
And within a second, tears started falling from his eyes. I was shocked. I offered him water and told him to calm down.
He was in pain since the morning because his phone was lost. He earned nothing the whole day.
He has to pay for his father’s medicines, which cost around ₹11k every month.
He has not married because he doesn’t have the money for it. He isn’t even able to save ₹1,000-1,500 per month.
This was a crazy-level realisation for me that someone isn’t able to marry because of his expenses.
In days when people abandon their parents when the bills rise, this guy abandoned his own life for parents.
That’s when I realised that most gig workers are the best kind of humans alive. Even big businessmen don’t have morals and ethics like them.
I forced him to take ₹20k, saying that it was for his parents, and if he didn’t want it, then he had to make his parents call me and say so.
It was a day of feeling blessed and lucky to have a life where I don’t go through financial survival struggles every single day.
And you all should be feeling the same. Thank you, God ♥️🙏
