Fruit Vendor Expresses Frustration After Having No Customers
A fruit vendor was caught on camera throwing away his goods after reportedly having no customers and failing to make a single sale.
Recently, Mj Leonoras, a Facebook user, shared a video of the male vendor throwing away his fruit products due to the lack of buyers. The post quickly went viral and drew reactions from the online community.
In the video, the elderly vendor can be seen tossing his fruits onto the road. Crushed fruits were scattered on the ground, reflecting the deep disappointment he felt after waiting for customers who never came.
For him, the fruits were not just goods, but the result of hard work, effort, and money he invested in hopes of earning something for the day.
According to the uploader, the vendor spent his own money to buy the fruits and sell them for a living. Unfortunately, there were days when no one stopped to buy from him.
Whenever that happened, he would end up throwing the fruits away out of frustration and hopelessness. It was not done out of anger toward others, but from a heavy feeling of loss and helplessness.
Many viewers felt sympathy for the man and expressed sadness over his situation. Some said the video showed the harsh reality faced by small vendors who rely on daily sales just to survive.
Others called on people to be more mindful and supportive, especially toward elderly vendors trying their best to earn an honest living.
There were also kind messages encouraging the public to offer even a small amount of help. Buying just a few pieces of fruit could already make a difference and allow the vendor to continue selling another day.
