Ideally no package should be thrown? Kinda obvious there’s a problem here. Of course it can’t be damaged if it’s a shirt. But I personally wouldn’t want any package of mine to be thrown. I bet you’ll call me elitist? lol

Ideally these drivers would be compensated fairly and not made to do 200 stops a day to the point that they can't take bathroom breaks. But unfortunately, this is the price we pay for cheapness and convenience.

So this gives them the right to do their jobs poorly? I feel bad for whoever you work for if this is your work ethic

It's not about the "right" to do it, it's that if companies are going to overwork and underpay their workers then you should expect this kind of thing. But instead of being upset at the company that makes drivers piss in Gatorade bottles, you're mad at a driver throwing a shirt or whatever.

Kinda, yeah. If their boss doesn't give a shit about them, why should they give a shit about their work? I feel bad for your state of mind that you'll just kowtow to someone because they give you a check, even if it's not enough to live on. And I do get paid enough to live, fortunately, so I do my job lmao

Pretty much, yeah. You get what you pay for.

I don’t think you know what elitist means.

Then you should stop ordering deliveries. Lol. This clip is beyond tame in comparison to how packages are treated within the facility/warehouse.

No, I'd just call you petty. I can't stand people that get hung up on the most inconsequential shit.
