There was a time when we waited 3–4 days for a delivery.
Then 1-day delivery felt magical.
Now if my order takes more than 10 minutes…
I start panicking like it’s a medical emergency.
Last week proved how far gone I am.
I ordered chips at 10:02 AM.
Timer showed Arriving in 9 minutes.
Pure happiness.
Then it jumped to 11 minutes.
My mood collapsed instantly.
I stared at my phone like the rider personally betrayed me.
Earlier:
→ “I will buy groceries this weekend.”
Now:
→ “Blinkit be like: mai hoon na.”
Convenience became the default.
Patience became optional.
And honestly?
Half the fun is not the delivery —
it's the live tracking.
( I love watching that tiny bike emoji move on the map like it is my personal action movie.)😭
Zooming in.
Zooming out.
Whispering “Bhai, seedha ja.”
Cheering like it's an IPL super over.
These apps didn’t just speed up delivery.
They speed-ran our entire lifestyle.
PS: I miss those old days when I used to go grocery shopping with my dad.😭

I’m thinking from the perspective of a delivery boy, rushing through traffic, delivering food with in 10 minutes, working late nights, even in the rain, yet still doing everything they can to be on time. Sometimes, a few heartless people shout at them for being just 1–5 minutes late. But on the other hand, there are people who don’t mind a delay at all. They greet them with a warm smile, and that small kindness is exactly what a delivery boy truly needs and hopes for.
