"If the delivery was okay, I intended to use it, but ended up returning it"

A delivery worker was caught throwing a package while making a delivery, sparking public outrage.


On the 17th, a post titled "Don't order from XX" was uploaded to an online community. The author, Mr. A, said, "I was working on AI (artificial intelligence) and 3D (three-dimensional) projects when my computer broke down, so I quickly looked for a replacement and placed an order." He added, "I ordered on August 15th, and the delivery was completed on the 16th." He continued, "I was at home at the time, and I was startled by a loud bang, so I checked. I was so shocked that I requested a return and ordered another computer."

However, according to Mr. A, the delivery worker who came the next day threw the package again. The closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage he released captured the entire incident. In the video, the delivery worker is seen carrying the package containing the computer up the stairs and, upon reaching the destination, throwing the package.


Mr. A explained, "It is a fifth-floor apartment without an elevator, and I was planning to use the package if it was okay. Still, because of the loud bang, I opened it and found that the gray board near the sound and USB ports on the motherboard was protruding and bent, and when I removed the cushioning material, screws were loose inside, so I requested a return."


He also added, "I have done delivery work myself, so I understand how difficult it is without an elevator. In that case, I think they could at least have called me." He continued, "I hope there is no professional disrespect. I have done delivery work as a side job and have experienced the physical and mental hardships of delivery, so I try to be as considerate as possible."

Netizens who saw the story responded with various comments such as, "It seems like they threw it deliberately with emotion," "It's true that delivery workers have a hard time, but there should never be someone who handles cargo carelessly like that," "What kind of mindset is that? They could have just left it there," and "Was it because there was no elevator and it was heavy that they lost their temper?"
