Rapido Driver Earns ₹1 Lakh By Juggling Delivery Job And A Pani Puri Stall; Netizens Stunned

Would you believe us if we told you that a Rapido driver earns ₹1 lakh per month by juggling multiple jobs? Yes, a man works as a Rapido driver, a Swiggy delivery agent and at a pani puri stall to earn this much money that some corporate employees can only dream of. And believe us when we tell you that he is quite happy. Netizens have also drawn parallels between his life and the corporate world.

A Rapido Driver Earns ₹1 Lakh A Month By Juggling 3 Jobs

A LinkedIn post by Komal Porwal, a copywriter, is now going viral and for all the right reasons. Recently, she shared an incident where she took a Rapido ride the other night. The driver was surprisingly happy and cheerful for someone working late around 9 pm. Komal couldn’t help herself and asked the driver, “Bhaiya, aap full-time yeh karte ho?” (Do you do this full-time?). To this, the Rapido driver smiled and shared that he doesn’t work as a Rapido driver full-time. He works as a Swiggy delivery agent in the morning, as a Rapido driver in the evening and runs a pani puri stall on weekends with his brother.

Naturally, Komal was stunned. According to the LinkedIn post, she also asked him how much he earns. The driver replied, “Lagbhag ek lakh ho jaata hai ma’am.” (I earn around one lakh per month). Let us tell you, earning one lakh a month is not easy. Many corporate employees dream of this salary. But it should also be noted that this Rapido driver is working truly hard. Juggling multiple jobs in a day is not something we can call easy.

Netizens React To The Viral LinkedIn Post

Komal Porwal also wrote in her post that “We keep saying people don’t want to work hard anymore. But maybe we’re just not looking in the right places. And sometimes, it’s your Rapido driver at 9 pm.” Her post has not just gone viral, but many professionals have now come up with their own two cents on the incident. One of them wrote, “True, when we move outside our comfort zone, we meet so many people and stories which we cannot hear in normal days,” while another said, “I’ve noticed that people who are cheerful and positive tend to earn more and enjoy life to the fullest.”

Not just that, but one LinkedIn user also compared the Rapido driver’s salary with Indian corporate employees and wrote a funny comment saying, “That’s 90% more than what Indian corporate employees earn.” Another wrote, “There’s no replacement for hard work.”
