"Run/do/go (on) an errand" = Chạy việc vặt -> Chạy đâu đó, quanh quẩn để làm mấy việc lặt vặt.

Ví dụ
The only time you see each of the parents interacting with the children is when either of them wants the child to run an errand.

On Saturday morning, I spoke to a relative in Tehran who was trying to beat the city's notorious (xấu, tai tiếng) traffic, looking for the best route to run an errand.

When the mother of the baby had to run an errand, the father came up with a genius invention (sự phát minh, sáng chế thông minh) to get the baby to feed.

Would you run an errand for just two bucks? How about $3? Maybe $4? These are the questions many delivery workers for the courier service (dịch vụ thông tin) DoorDash say they now face after the company instituted a new pay model paying out as little as $2 per job—a system that was meant to replace its previous, predatory (trấn lột) wage model. And thanks to upcoming changes to the company’s reward program, frequently working for scraps (ẩu đả, cãi cọ) may be some dashers’ (người phô trương) only option.
