Foodpanda Rider Ends Up Beside Kallang River After Following Customer’s Delivery Address

Food delivery riders face unique job pains daily. Aside from weird customer requests, they may also encounter orders to unusual addresses.

A rider was met with this predicament when he received an order with a peculiar set of coordinates for its address.

Upon reaching the location, he found himself just beside the Kallang River without any customer in sight. Perhaps unsure of what to do next, he contacted customer service and asked if he should throw the food in the water instead.
