A FedEx employee was caught handling packages like he was playing Pop-A-Shot at Dave & Busters.
The whistleblower was none other than UFC CEO Dana White, who uploaded footage of the unabashed box bashing earlier this week in New York City. The video (see it here) quickly went viral, catching the attention of FedExecutives.
“The behavior depicted in the video is unacceptable and inconsistent with the professionalism FedEx demonstrates every day,” FedEx told TMZ Sports. “We are committed to treating our customers’ packages with the utmost care, and this driver is no longer providing service for our company as a result of this behavior.”
I can’t imagine that was an isolated incident.
Reactions on social media were mixed, with some fans accusing White of jeopardizing a person’s livelihood for the benefit of his own amusement. Others insist this was a victory for all the customers who’ve ever received a package in pieces.
Speaking of deliveries, the promotion is set to deliver UFC St. Louis this weekend on ESPN.
