The trend of poly-working — juggling multiple jobs — is becoming more common among the young. A Deloitte survey shows that 46% of Gen Z and 37% of Gen Y take on at least one extra job besides their main work. On average, Vietnamese workers spend 47–56 hours a week on the job — around 9–11 hours a day. For Gen Z, it can even reach 12 hours per day.

More Endurance with Number 1: Working in a Warehouse by Day, Riding for Apps by Night

Past 10 p.m., after dropping off a passenger at the Mien Dong bus station (Ho Chi Minh City), Trịnh Trường Giang, a 29-year-old from An Giang, opens a bottle of Number 1. The energy drink helps him recharge and stay alert enough to take on one or two more rides before calling it a day.

With ingredients that provide instant energy and alertness, Number 1 is a familiar companion of young people, helping them overcome challenges in work and life to become a better version of themselves.

For many drivers, Number 1is the go-to drink to regain energy, stay awake, and maintain concentration.

By day, Giang works as a warehouse staff member at a food company. At night, he rides for a ride-hailing app to earn extra income. His main job pays okay, but rising living costs and a home loan mean he has to work harder to cover expenses and support his family.

“I’ve been riding for about a year because the work is flexible. If I have overtime at the warehouse, I ride less. If I’m free, I ride more. And if I’m too tired, I can rest,” he says, sipping a bottle of Number 1 while waiting for his next trip request.

His daily schedule is packed: after work, he rushes home to shower and eat before heading to the Thu Duc wholesale market area. On busy nights, he rides until 11 p.m. On average, he earns nearly 200,000 VND per night after deducting fuel.

“When riding late at night, my eyes get heavy, and my body feels drained… but just one bottle of Number 1 wakes me up instantly. It helps me stay alert and ensures safety for both me and my passengers.”

With ingredients that help boost energy and focus quickly, Number 1 has become a daily companion for young workers, helping them push through challenges at work and in life.

Giang’s wife, Linh, earns about 8 million VND per month as a garment factory worker. After her shift, she takes home extra sewing work to contribute to household expenses and save for the future.

“We’re still young. Hardships help us grow,” Giang says. “For more than a year, I’ve barely taken a night off from riding. While waiting for trips, I usually drink a bottle of Number 1 to recharge, chase away fatigue, and stay focused.”

Late Nights, Little Sleep — Still 'On Top' with Number 1

At 2 a.m., Huyền Trang, a 28-year-old freelancer in Ho Chi Minh City, is already awake, preparing for another long day. Working in social media, she juggles three projects simultaneously, bringing in an income of over 60 million VND per month.

“On normal days, I work from 7 a.m. until about 8 p.m. During peak seasons, I don’t really rest at all. If I’m exhausted, I just lie down for a few minutes, then get back to work to meet weekly — sometimes even daily — reports,” Trang shares.

Tight deadlines and sleep deprivation often leave her drained. To stay focused while analyzing data or preparing reports, she chooses a quick energy boost with Number 1.

“I had to find a way to recharge that fits the nature of my job. Among all the options, Number 1 works best — it helps me fight fatigue and stay alert, even on nights when I barely sleep,” she says.

With Number 1 as her companion, Trang has powered through nearly four years of demanding schedules — late-night editing, endless deadlines, and constant pressure.

Thanks to the boost from Number 1, she consistently tackles tough projects, refuses to give up, and earns trust and recognition from clients — all while leveling up her career.

Staying up late, lacking sleep to meet deadlines, many young people choose to recharge with Number 1 to stay alert and focused on work.

“I’m happy that my efforts are recognized. Choosing Number 1 every day is not just about energy — it gives me motivation and inspiration to stay committed, improve myself, and grow in the career path I’ve chosen,” Trang says.

Number 1: Fueling the Spirit of “Living with Lasting Passion”

That is also the mission of Number 1: to inspire young Vietnamese to “live with long-lasting passion,” supporting them in every profession and lifestyle. The recent limited-edition Number 1 x Đen not only delivers a “super cool” product but also symbolizes Đen’s unwavering commitment to music: “After 15 years walking with rap, Đen has never stopped pursuing his passion.”

Đen, the brand ambassador of Number 1, reflects the spirit of today’s youth: constantly striving, exploring, and transforming into the best version of themselves. Between dreams and reality, passion and pressure, Number 1 remains both a physical and mental source of energy — helping them stay motivated, stay focused, and stay strong on the path they choose.
