[Financial News] A story about a delivery driver who carries a separate sheet of paper to avoid placing food orders on the ground is drawing attention online.
On the 30th, a photo of a notice written by a Coupang Eats delivery driver was posted on Threads, a social networking service (SNS), alongside the caption, “So heartwarming. Moved first thing in the morning.”
According to the notice, the delivery driver wrote, “I’m leaving your order here,” and explained, “You asked me to leave it at your door, but I thought you might be uncomfortable if dirt or dust got on the bottom of the delivery bag from setting your food on the ground, so I’m leaving it on a sheet of paper I brought with me.”
The driver added, “Take care of yourself in this weather, with its wide temperature swings, and I hope the days ahead are filled with good things.” The note ended, “From a Coupang Eats delivery worker.”
Although it has not been confirmed whether the notice was actually written by a Coupang Eats delivery driver, comments from people who saw it poured in, expressing how touched they were by the thoughtful consideration for customers. “Did they print these out themselves and carry them around on deliveries? I respect their attitude toward their work.” “With that kind of work ethic, they can succeed at anything.” “It seems the delivery driver prepared it themselves, not the company.”
