Julian Rai spends a lot of time in his car.“Currently, I’m a Lyft driver and I deliver for Grubhub, Postmates, and Doordash and Instacart,” Rai said.With the increasing demand for people to deliver your packages, good, and other items, it’s an industry constantly available with job opportunities, especially with the rise of delivery apps.“I can control my own time,” Rai said. “I can choose not to work if I don’t want to work that day.”“It’s becoming more and more lucrative,” HG Parsa, an economics professor at the University of Denver, said. “In the morning they do Uber. In the afternoon they go to groceries. In the evening they pick up children from school and hospital, then they go home.” He said the flexibility in this type of work can be attractive. But a job like this has its risks.“They do have contact with a lot of people,” Christina Huber, an economist at the Metropolitan State University of Denver, said. “They are really vulnerable. With the rise of coronavirus, it’ll be interesting to see how those industries evolve.”The growing number of COVID-19 cases has woken up the delivery industry to the potential threat.Postmates recently announced a “no contact” option, allowing app users to choose to have their food dropped off somewhere instead of meeting face to face. Rai said this is already happening.“Literally I’ve gotten one. I took a screenshot of this, that said ‘I have the flu, leave it outside the door’,” Rai said.“I think there’s a lot of fear about how the COVID-19 virus is gonna impact a lot of different industries,” Tsinni Russel, an owner and operator at Confluence Courier Collective, a local bike messenger company, said. “There's been a lot of talk about if it’s gonna increase delivery or decrease delivery kind of based on if people want to go out more.”He said one of the cons of working in the industry is the lack of benefits.“We also have independent contractors working for us, which is kind of the same as Postmates and Grubhub and all those other industries, and that’s just because due to the nature of the business. It’s very expensive to have employees,” Russell said.“You don’t have benefits, you don’t have healthcare, you don’t have paid time off, you don’t get sick leave,” Huber explained.Delivery workers are also exposed to the elements more frequently.“When it’s snowing outside or raining outside and people don’t want to leave their house, that’s probably when we get the busiest and make the most of our money,” Russell said.“Bad weather usually means good business for us,” Rai added.As the industry continues to grow, Huber said she sees the increasing demand from the consumer side for fast, convenient delivery.“I think we kind of reached this tipping point,” she said. “It was the smartphone's availability for the consumer and the ability for the producers to develop these apps that are so convenient for people, combined with these other large companies that got us used to the free shipping and home delivery.”Workers hope the industry -- and general understanding from customers -- will grow with it.“It’s important to remember that the people who are delivering your food,” Russell explained. “They’re just regular working class people who are just trying to make a living, so just treating everybody with respect is an important thing to do.” 3336

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Doctors across the country are working to figure out a medical mystery that's left a Smithville, Missouri, teenager losing her senses, including her vision. Jordyn Walker is 15 years old and now permanently blind, part of a medical mystery she's been battling for more than a year and a half. "I just hope it never happens again," she said. "I don't really know what else I can lose." Walker's symptoms first appeared in July 2017. At first, the teen experienced stomach pains associated with her colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease. Then her face began to swell and her eyes, ears and nose began to bleed. Walker lost her sense of taste and smell. "It was terrifying knowing that there is nothing I could do for her and just watching her go through this," said her mom, Kendyll Walker. Tests results in 2017 from an out-of-state hospital came back normal so Walker's family believed it was a one-time thing. A year later, she went to the emergency room at The University of Kansas Hospital. Her severe symptoms had returned and were much worse. "How rapid her face started swelling and how rapid the pressure in her eyes went up were quite alarming," said Dr. Travis Langner, who is the division chief for the hospital's pediatric critical care unit. Walker stayed in the pediatric critical care unit and underwent emergency eye surgery. The pressure on her eyes was too severe and caused her to lose her sight permanently. "It's frustrating for the family, it's frustrating for us not to have pinpointed the answer and have a definite diagnosis," Langner said. "But we've gotten enough answers from the tests, enough negative answers, to know what it's not. So now it's finding the definitive answer of what it is." Walker is going to Minnesota to undergo more tests. Her family has set up a 1835

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A Florida man's good deed is not going unnoticed after he bought over 100 generators and food to send to the Bahamas. Alec Sprague, who lives in Jacksonville, said he went a Costco to buy a generator, and saw a man purchasing over 100 of them. Sprague said the man was buying the generators and food to send to the Bahamas. In a Facebook post, Sprague stated, "Was just in Costco off Collins getting a generator (at 0 each) and this guy right here is purchasing over 100 generators and food to send to the Bahamas!

It wasn't easy, and at times there was doubt, but defending champion the US can look ahead to a mouthwatering quarterfinal clash against host France after a 2-1 win over a resolute Spain.In the US' toughest challenge at the Women's World Cup so far, two Megan Rapinoe penalties, one in each half, secured progress to the last eight.When Spain conceded a fifth-minute penalty -- Maria Leon bringing down Tobin Heath in the box -- it seemed as if the US would go on to accrue another healthy scoreline, just as it did in the group stages.Jill Ellis' team had qualified for the last 16 having scored 18 goals in three games and not conceded, becoming the first team in World Cup history to qualify for the knockout stages with a +18 goal difference.But before this tournament questions were being asked of the US' defense and for the first time in France it was put through its paces and breached.In trying to play out from defense, Becky Sauerbrunn lost possession on the edge of her box and Spain pounced with a delightful finish from Jennifer Hermoso.The defending champion created more chances -- Rapinoe twice missed opportunities to give her team the lead -- but so too did Spain, catching out the Americans' high defensive line on a couple of occasions.After the break, Spain's ploy of slowing the pace of the game by keeping possession was successful in frustrating the tournament favorite until Leon took a swipe at Rose Lavelle's shin and the referee pointed at the spot.Though it was the slightest of contacts, a VAR check rubber stamped the decision and Rapinoe coolly slotted home.More to follow.The-CNN-Wire? & ? 2019 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company.

In a time where people are striving for bigger and better, sometimes what's better, isn't always big. WeeCasa Tiny House Resort in Lyons, Colorado has attracted visitors from all over the nation and even the world since 2014. "This is just the latest manifestation of that kind of alternative lower-cost housing," says Kenyon Waugh, with WeeCasa. "And I think that's really why [we're] intrigued with tiny houses."Waugh says the tiny house movement was most likely inspired by van life, people transforming their vans into a small campers, complete with a kitchen and bed. Those interested in tiny homes are looking to scale down and have more flexibility. "What we're able to offer people is the concept: could I live with less?" Waugh says.According to the website 779
