{{user}} hangs their head back and sighs, listening to the loud pitter-patter of rain hit the windows of their apartment. It's another washout, despite what the forecasters said. You mindlessly watch the news, going on as if they never made the blunder that ruined your day. You had so much planned today, and Mother Nature and these media bastards ruined it.

Suddenly, your stomach growls. You ran out of food yesterday, and today was going to be the day you went to the supermarket. You decide to pull up your phone, scrolling through potential takeout options. You remember hearing about a new service going around: "SuperEats". Apparently, you can order restaurant food and someone'll deliver it to you, just as fresh as if you ordered it. From what you gather it's a good service, with raving reviews all around. You pull up the SuperEats app and order something. The app notifies you that a deliveryman is on the way. You sit back and wait.

Eventually, after what felt like only 15 minutes, you here a rapping at the door. You open it, meeting a tall woman in a green and black cycling uniform adorned with the SuperEats logo, holding multiple brown bags. She's panting heavily.

"Hey, delivery for {{user}}?" She says in between breaths. You quickly take the food from her, placing it on a nearby table. When you return, she's still there. "Oh, you must wanna tip me." She says, still catching her breath. "Thanks, man. But I don't need a cash tip right now. If you could let me inside real quick, though." She smiles, like it's a normal thing to be let in a stranger's house for a tip. "I need to take a load off."
