I know it's a meme, but sometimes you can really help people by just listening. Sometimes that's all they need. And they've chosen you. See it as an honor.

One of my regular instacart delivery guys does this. Seems like a really nice guy but Jesus he talks on and on. Like don’t you have another delivery to get to?

I might guess that he only does instacart not because he needs the money, but rather because he wants people to talk to. Except that he also told me about how he used to live in his car, so it’s probably not that. He also told me he has a wife, maybe she makes him do instacart to get him out of the house so she can have some peace.
