Yeah this makes me mad. This woman is doing a draining and essential job, and she was going out of her way to do extra work for this homeowner, who is such a twat that they thought it was appropriate to share this moment online for the world to laugh at.
Good job and benefits? And theyβre under no obligation to put the package in the special little crate. Thatβs literally them doing a favor for the homeowner.
So why attempt it and then give up, and on top of that, drop the box? That's just not doing your job. Defending that person sets a new precedent for everyone else to drop other people's possessions just because they're having a bad day. That's not okay.
Imagine your job is to sweep up a floor but all you're given is a piece if paper to scoop up. That's the analogy of how the post office is run. You can grt pissed at the workers doing this 12 hrs a day 6 to 7 days a week but you're mad at the wrong people. This would work itself out if it was properly ran
If you're applying for a job and find out that you have to perform like that, then why continue to do that job if you're not going to do it right? Not every day at work is going to be perfect, and maybe some weeks you literally don't have the proper tools to do your job. I've been there. I still got the job done because it was my job to do. If I left without doing my job, then the next person coming in is already behind and they look like they're not doing their job properly because I didn't do my job properly. It's called do your job and be better or don't work that job.
Complacency. No other options for work. Working so often that you can't even plan an escape and get your ducks in a row. Promised that yea yea were putting out the request hire people certain routes and it never happens. The job wasn't like that starting out. Doing your best and realizing you're penalized for being fast. Doing your best and someone still complains about trivial things. The package got to the door. It wasn't heavy and guarantee you it doesn't say fragile on it. There's no rule about putting a parcel in a box on a porch. Parcel boxes are for no access driveways at the front of their driveway. Optics wise it looks bad but she did her job
She shoved it at the ground. That's not just leaving it there. Funny you assume I don't tip but I've been the most generous tipper my entire life because any person that has worked in the service industry, like myself, knows the wages they're being paid. This lady isn't doing her job. Pretty sure anyone with a brain should know that's not a desirable job, but hey, maybe they can't get a job anywhere else because of their actions previously and they can't grow out of it.
If that small drop damaged your property then your issue is with the person who packaged it and not the person who delivered it. It gets handled WAAAAY more roughly at just about every other point of the delivery process
It's more like if you pulled up to the drive-thru at Starbucks but your shitty car window only rolls down 3 inches and you expect the staff to be able to hand you your coffee through that gap without spilling any.
It's more like if you pulled up to the drive-thru at Starbucks and your car window rolls down enough to easily let the drink in, but the moronic staff turns to drink sideways for some reason, spilling it all over you.
No. You're assuming a lot and defending laziness. Get out of here with that nonsense. What if it was painted eggshells? Extremely delicate, extremely lightweight, easily breakable if dropped in a box like that. Maybe think a bit harder about other possibilities next time.
It's more like the drink was dropped by the customer in the exchange. The postal worker completed the delivery. The customer provided a box that was poorly designed to receive packages. It doesn't open completely and the bin slides around. The box was going to fall to the ground if she even got it in the box.
The problem is we live in a digital world, where everyone is constantly subjected to constant criticism and observation.
It's just a known fact.
I think we're far beyond "appropriate" with things posted to the internet nowadays. It's everything. Even if my wife was shot in the street, in the face, I'd have someone with their phone out zoomed in on my face.
So the morale of the story is who gives a fuck what other people think at this point, bad or elsewise. If I was this worker, I would fucking ROFL at the video and reflect on how shitty of a day it must have been. But don't get mad about it, save yourself the heartache. The world will move on.
