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

Images in this story may be disturbing for some viewers.PUEBLO, Colo. — If you've ever felt like playing with fireworks, and maybe doing so after a few drinks, you might want to pay attention to this man's cautionary tale. For the past six months, electricity estimator Trevor Tate has been re-learning how to use his hand.“I use my hand ten hours a day all day, every day at work,” Tate said. “I type … take notes, crunch numbers.” That's because while lighting fireworks on New Year's Eve, Tate did something he now calls stupid."I caved to peer pressure and decided that I would hold the launch tube and fire a firework from my hand out of the launch tube and up into the air, and it would be a joyous event,” he said. “Well, the joyous event turned into one of the worst nights of my entire life."Instead of launching up into the air, the explosive fired downward, and through his right hand.“I remember my hand coming all the way back like this and me telling myself, ‘wow that didn't feel right, felt like a lot of pressure.’ I felt pain in my elbow and that was it, nowhere else,” Tate said. “And then I looked down at the back of my hand and the whole back of my hand in this area was white — just like bright white. And I’m like, ‘something has happened.’ ”He soon realized his hand was barely still attached. Doctors at two different hospitals that night told him he may lose his hand. But he was soon put in touch with Dr. Benson Pulikkottil at Denver's Swedish Medical Center.“It was a pretty shocking injury,” Pulikkottil said.Shocking, but something he believed he could fix. He attached Tate's hand to the tissue on his chest so blood could flow from his chest into his hand. A piece of skin from his chest now covers the underside of his hand.The doctor's advice this holiday?“Avoid alcohol during this time,” said Pulikkottil, the medical director of Burn & Reconstructive Centers of Colorado at Swedish Medical Center. “Don't cloud your judgment. These injuries, when they happen in a millisecond, you've now changed your life forever.”"The way I feel about fireworks now is … I probably won’t go outside and enjoy our country's pastime of blowing up fireworks,” he said. “It’s done enough. Trauma, inside of my head … I don't like loud noises anymore.”Instead, the electricity estimator might work on his rehab exercise, adding to the progress he's already understandably proud of."You look them in the eye and shake with your right hand. And I can do that now,” Tate said, “where before I couldn't.” 2536

Justin Bieber says that he has been battling Lyme disease. In an Instagram post on Wednesday, the pop star wrote that it's been a rough couple of years but he's been getting the right treatment. Bieber's post promised that he'll “be back and better than ever.” Lyme disease is transmitted by Ixodes ticks, also known as deer ticks. Lyme can cause flu-like conditions, neurological problems, joint paint and other symptoms, but is curable in most cases. Bieber says he will discuss battling the tick-borne infection on his upcoming YouTube docu-series, “Justin Bieber: Seasons,” which debuts on Jan. 27. 615

This family took in a little boy and gave him a lifesaving gift.Nicole Alles and her husband have been fostering children for more than a decade.

The couple took him in and she did his dialysis at home."We took him in under the premise that he would probably go back home soon, but that did not happen,” said Nicole.After four months, Sebastian’s biological parents discontinued their parental rights.In 2016, the Alles family legally adopted him.His two foot tall box of medical records was delivered to their home shortly after.That’s when Nicole learned she and her newly adopted son shared a blood type.After waiting for Sebastian to be strong enough for a transplant, Nicole went through extensive testing and learned she was a match.“When they found out I was a tissue match for him that was when we were just so excited because that just meant so much to us that I was able to give him the kidney,” said Nicole.Today Sebastian is one year post operation. He’s healthier than ever.His kidney transplant, one of many successful surgeries he’s had to improve his quality of life.“To look at him, you really wouldn’t know he’s been through as much as he’s been through,” said Nicole.Nicole believes Sebastian was meant to come into her life so she could be his mother and his donor.“Being able to save his life... it makes me very emotional, very fortunate... very blessed... very happy because I know that I was a part of that,” said Alles. 2346
