Delivery Rider Goes Viral for His Response to Demanding Customer Request
A delivery rider reacts to a customer’s demanding request for extra gravy and well-cooked chicken wings “Taga deliver lng po kame”.
A “delivery rider” refers to an individual employed by a delivery service or company to transport goods, typically food or packages, from one location to another. These riders use bicycles, motorcycles, scooters, or even cars to efficiently drive through traffic and deliver orders to customers’ doorsteps or designated locations.
The job of a delivery rider requires good time management, navigation skills, and customer service etiquette. They must pick up orders from merchants, ensure that the items are securely packaged for transport, and deliver them to customers within the specified timeframe.
Recently, Almhan Parang, a Facebook user, shared a screenshot of a customer’s demanding request for extra gravy and well-cooked chicken wings. The post quickly went viral, sparking various reactions online.
In the photo, the customer can be seen asking for additional gravy and requesting that the chicken wings be cooked well because they dislike raw food. The rider was surprised and couldn’t believe what he was reading.
The delivery rider responded, stating that he was not the cook, and suggested that the customer should have noted their request in the app for the kitchen crew to see. The delivery worker also explained that they were just waiting outside the establishment.
The screenshot was captioned with:
“Taga deliver lng po kame ng pagkain di po kame kusinero”
Many netizens empathized with the delivery rider, acknowledging that their job is to deliver food and not to cater to specific cooking requests. Some criticized the customer for making unreasonable demands, while others praised the rider for handling the situation professionally.
