Way to earn extra money as a delivery driver?

hey so im asking this question on behalf of my friend!



he is 18 and is still at college but he lives in council accomadation with his 29yr old girlfriend!



they have just had a baby and he is finding it hard to stay on his feet! he works as a delivery driver for a chinese takeaway and the other day he asked me if i knew of anyway he could scam the customers into giving him more money...like a small time con!



i asked if he thought it was immoral and he replied i'd do anything for my daughter to have a better quality of life....lifes not fair and thats why we are were we are and im sure that people are not going to be extremly upset with the loss of an extra pound or 2!



so basically i was wandering if anyone knew any short change scams that are easy to execute...please dont answer with comments about the morals behind this as we have already been through them and he knows full well what he is doing and is aware that its wrong!Way to earn extra money as a delivery driver?
Your friend is to be applauded for having a job, but thinking of robbing his customers is not the way to go. Why doesn't he look for a job that fits around the one he already has? Contact the job centre, check out what benefits he is entitled to. Ring up Labour Ready and register with them for work. They pay at the end of each day so he will have cash every day he works.



Going down the route of fiddling will only get him the sack and a reputation for dishonesty that will hinder any further attempts at finding work.



Getting up at 4am on cold wet mornings is hard, but it is what we men do to put food on the table to feed our children and a roof over their heads. He needs to grow up and be responsible. He has a totally dependant child that needs food, nappies, milk, warmth etc.



I have provided 2 links for checking his entitlement to benefits and for Labour Ready to see if there is one in your area and what work they may have.
ask you friend how would he like it if he were scammed? not nice is it?Way to earn extra money as a delivery driver?
Why you want to scam? Why not try to find another part time job. Honesty will pay later on. I would suggest do not think about it and do some work and earn money honestly so you can keep your head high.
Its not going to work, within a day somoene who was scammed is going to call the restaurant to report the scam, and your friend wont have any job or moneyWay to earn extra money as a delivery driver?
as someone who orders a lot of chinese takeaways, i know exactly what to pay before i put the phone down. so the only way i'll get scammed is if the driver withholds the change ... and you can be sure i'll get on the phone straightaway. what i will suggest is that you (oh sorry, your friend) be courteous, professional and friendly at the door as i tend to tip generously when the driver has these qualities.
