What is online selling?

It is to delivered your purchased products to your home.

To deliver to your home a item needs to be transported from seller warehouse/ Shops or home to depot to the purchaser home, where else.

This created a big demand, problems, to find delivery drivers. It creates low class jobs which many Sinkies wont do. So to solve the problems the government need more low educated FTs in Singapore.

Also delivery companies are engaging in sub-contractors drivers and pay them by per scan or hourly rate.

Delivery drivers become independent contractors that do not get paid on public holidays, no sick leave entitlement, CPF and pay their the vehicle maintenance, tyres and so on.

Even major retail shops do online and joined the saturated online markets create more problems to deliver to their customer homes when there are shortages of independent deliver drivers.

So in the next 10-15 years you will find online business unable to delivery their goods to the their customers on time.

Also many online buyers are not home to received the goods during the day as more couples are working hard t pay their mortgages. Also the driver has only 1 minutes to wait for the owner to accept the goods. The drivers will leave a card to the buyer and where will the driver leave the goods/item at is another question?

So instead of having the good delivered at buyer door step the buyer has received a card instead and has to lan lan (fucking shit) to go pick up the good at a instructed location.

So only time available to pick up the goods could be only Saturday. LppL what's the point of home delivery when you have to pick up the goods yourself and not to mentioned queue with hundred of people also line up to pick up the goods at the location.

If give permission to leave the goods at the door worry the goods will be lost ad lppl buy online for fuck?

Will online sellings create big problems?

Some fundamental never change, cheap things no good and good things not cheap.

Might as well to shopping and hand carry the goods yourself to home?
