$Shanghai Lingang (600848)$ started working as a security guard in Shanghai at the beginning of the third day of the lunar new year. During the day, I watched the main clients at D Water Lake Financial Bay, and at night I rode shared bikes to deliver food for crowdsourcing clients. Today, I was completely exhausted and burned out. I delivered 31.46 worth of food tonight, and a customer who ordered a special dish tipped me 6.66. Expenses were 42.68, and it took 3.5 hours. I also tipped the rider who took my order five yuan (as compensation for a previous user). I checked out the customer’s place, which was a crowded room with multiple people (the room costs 27,000 per square meter here), but it looked like a high-end office building worker. The residential area they live in is slightly more upscale than where I work as a security guard. Today’s delivery income was -11.22.
Reflecting, I must control my hand; some orders are not suitable for us crowdsourcing workers to handle, just like stocks.
This post will record my security guard stock trading journey, and I’ll occasionally vent my frustrations.
