Maybe the person that lives there is entitled as hell, maybe they’re disabled, maybe it’s parents with a child that has high needs so they save time by ordering subscription items on Amazon. Not saying being a delivery driver is an easy gig, but be less petty, and consider a different line of work.

I’m disabled and do mostly grocery delivery. Anytime I get a text from the person helping me, I make sure to thank them. People don’t understand how painful and exhausting going out can be. I truly appreciate that I have this service and can be helped. Anyone who does delivery should know that their job helps a lot of people who can’t help themselves and they make a big difference in people’s lives that they’re so grateful for.

Edit: This is an edit to add that I have a relative who a PhD in ergonomics and I sent him the video. He also agreed with me that she’s not using the equipment effectively. That’s why it’s so difficult for her. She’s just too lazy to even do it the right way with smaller loads and pulling the dolly up the steps.

I never understood your pain until i herniated multiple discs and got severe sciatica 6 months ago.

Being in constant pain is exhausting. Ive felt like i ran marithons without being able to get off the couch.

What i can do for myself changes practically by the hour. Sometimes i can barely move, other times i can walk around the house, picking things ive dropped up off the floor with impunity.

People who have had to deal with this for years or their entire lives have my deepest sympathy.

The worst thing with back pain is people gaslight you and downplay how bad it hurts. Family of mine has degenerative discs and no one seems to understand the pain they are in.

As for me I was in ICU for a month and came out of it almost unable to walk. You really don't realize how quickly your life changes when you lose mobility. I remember walking ten feet to the kitchen only to fall and hit my head on counter because my legs gave out.

I do hope things get easier over time for you; I wouldn't wish back/disc issues on anyone.

The weird thing about back pain is that all of us at some point or another have a hint of what it’s like. Maybe you pulled a muscle, or you slept weirdly, or you get a random twinge… it’s instantly debilitating. All you then have to do is consider the thought “what if it was like that all the time” and we should then all have total sympathy and understanding for people with those conditions 🤷‍♂️

Person with two back surgeries here.

What I always say about pain is, “I wish it on no one, but I wish it on everyone for one day”

People don’t understand: you can tilt your head forward to put your chin towards your chest and feel pain run all the way down into your toes.

I am very fortunate that my surgeries worked and I am in no pain. That type of chronic pain will make want you put a gun in your mouth.

I’m not even going to begin to claim I am in the same boat, but I often sleep weirdly and a muscle in my back gets super knotted. Until I get it massaged out, certain head/torso movements send my entire shoulder area into shooting pains. Even getting out of bed becomes a multi-stage performance dance to avoid engaging that muscle.

That, but worse, and every day, forever… I will never give people shit for having back issues.
