This is Assistant Manager Park, rapidly leveling up from a beginner to an intermediate driver 🫡 Assistant Manager Park, whose stamina issues finally kicked in due to the continuous grueling schedule... I took a long, deep sleep of a whopping 15 hours and pulled off a late commute. On top of that, my back was hurting, so today I abandoned my alter ego—my electric wheel (Falcon)—and ventured to work in 100% 'pedestrian mode'! 💦 The start was perfect, even triggering a landing change, but falling into the trap of Seobinggo and the hell of walking for 3 hours in the middle of Gangnam—the 8-hour pedestrian survival story of Day 852 begins right now. 🏃‍♂️💨 📊 Today's Ride Summary (Day 852 / June 23) ⏰ Working Hours: 22:00 ~ 06:00 (Hourly wage approx. 11,000 KRW) 🗺️ Route: Departure from Mokdong-dong, Paju ➡️ Closing point in Daechi-dong, Seoul (Afterwards, a walking workout followed by a return via express bus) 🏃‍♂️ Mode of Transportation: City bus 🚌, Subway 🚇, Express bus 🚌, Two sturdy(?) legs 🚶‍♂️💨 (Electric wheel break) 📱 Apps Used: Kakao T Designated Driver, Soksok, Handle For You, TMAP Designated Driver, Icon, Logi, Call Manager 💰 Total Earnings: 88,000 KRW (Total 3 runs) 🚗 Detailed Ride History Round 1: Kia EV6 (Mokdong-dong, Paju ➡️ Seokgwan-dong, Seoul / First call to Seoul + drop-off location change, nice! 🎯) / 45,600 KRW Round 2: BMW Mini Cooper (Yongdu-dong, Seoul ➡️ Seobinggo, Seoul / Snapped it while waiting for the subway but misjudged the location 💦) / 19,200 KRW Round 3: Hyundai Santa Fe (Sinsa Station, Seoul ➡️ Daechi-dong, Seoul / Gangnam Free Mode ON!

Due to accumulated fatigue and back pain, I slept for a full 15 hours and woke up late. I didn't dare ride my electric scooter, so I trudged to work on my own two legs. Still, I was lucky! I landed a ride to Seoul right from my first call, and since the customer even changed the landing location, my pay went up sweetly. "Oh, things are going well today?" At that moment, I never dreamed that my future would turn bleak. Hahaha. #2. Is the Line 2 15-minute interval for real? 😱 And the trap of Seobinggo. After finishing up in Seokgwan-dong, I took a bus to Yongdu-dong and was about to catch Line 2... when I missed the train right before my eyes. But the next train was a whopping 15 minutes later?! (Is a 15-minute interval on Line 2 for real? ㅠㅠ) While waiting endlessly at the station, a ride to Seobinggo suddenly popped up from nearby just 2 minutes before the train arrived! "I finished the ride with a light heart, thinking, 'It must be in the Yongsan area'... but when I got off, I thought, 'Where am I? Who am I?' It wasn't the bustling Yongsan district I had imagined. Hahaha. Thankfully, the last bus was still running, so I managed to sweep through Itaewon and successfully escape to Sinsa Station! #3. Possessed by the spirit of a Gangnam Premium Driver 🍔 Entering Daechi-dong! I went into the McDonald's at Sinsa Station to enjoy a relaxing cup of coffee and changed my strategy. "Alright, let's go all out as a Gangnam Premium Driver today!" I switched all my custom calls to the Gangnam setting and put on a "hold out" strategy! Immediately, a custom call to Daechi-dong came in. Shouting, "Yeah~ This is why I do Gangnam Premium Drivers!" I completed the ride in high spirits, and the place I arrived at was the Seolleung hotspot, where calls are said to be pouring in. #4. Skipping Dongtan calls and walking endlessly for 3 hours 🚶‍♂️💦 My mental state completely shattered. As soon as I landed in Seolleung, I aimed for the next call in Gangnam... but countless long-distance calls to Dongtan, Hwaseong, and Ansan kept popping up. (Sigh... I should have definitely grabbed that long-distance call back then...) As an hour or two passed while I stubbornly stuck to the Gangnam calls, my mental state began to crumble. Shouting "Let's just walk!" and carrying the sorrow of being a pedestrian, I walked past Yeoksam to Gangnam Station, but cruelly, a spell of no calls appearing only for me... 😭 In the end, I didn't even catch a glimpse of a return call until the first bus arrived, so I took an express bus home to Paju all alone. Just how on earth do you strategize to achieve high sales as a pedestrian? 🏠 Today's Hard-Breaking Self-Feedback 📝 👍 Strengths: It was good that I took a long-distance ride to Seoul as my first call despite leaving late, and successfully made it into Gangnam by utilizing the last subway train to take connecting calls within Seoul. 👎 Weaknesses: I painfully regret arriving late due to a failure to manage my sta...
