Dana did nothing wrong. If this was you or me filming and posting this, no one would blink an eye.

How hard is it to not do that. Every time I order something fragile I hope and pray it's not being delivered by Fedex.

My assumption is the concept of the message changing depending on the messenger.

Since it Dana White, and he's rich, and the FedEx drive makes A LOT less than he does, people will give Dana crap about being the reason why this guy loses his job.

Ehhh. I'll go out on a limb and say no one would care if it was just socks, and we can't be sure it wasn't, but... even then, there's no way that's organized, and the packaging will get fucked up.

You should see what happens in the shipping facilities. Everything gets thrown around worse because they expect you to work at warp speed.

Intentionally putting your own company in financial risk by hiring an ungrateful employee (who may singlehandedly hinder quality control) due to some weird inability to control your emotions toward a stranger who doesn't even know you exist.

Make that make sense, folks.

It's definitely not a name you'll find much these days, but it seemed to be more common back in the day. Here's a few guys named Dana that I could think of.

Dana Carvey (Comedian, SNL alum)
Dana Elcar (MacGyver actor)
Dana Ashbrook (Twin Peaks actor)
Dana Andrews (old movie star guy, mentioned in the Rocky Horror intro song)

Sure, it's taught. But what kind of work culture and metrics are enforced on the regular that would make this the better choice than getting up and down in your truck, or pulling down the ramp to drag the dolly and stack the trailer right?

This kind of shot happens because the bosses set expectations that are inconsistent with the training given and then blame drivers and loaders for doing what they have to in order to keep those jobs.

Worked in a distribution center years ago and watched stuff like that happen on the daily, for those exact reasons.

Also, Dana White can go fuck himself in general. You have better things to do, I hope, than ruin some dude's job. And that goes for anyone filming and posting for the express purpose of costing someone their job. He wasn't endangering anyone, which is about the only justification anyone should use to pull this.

Easy. You are a die hard Donnie supporter. A supporter of someone who did exactly what you just described on a massively larger scale. So, you either are aware of why someone would feel that way or you simply do not care. Either way, your concern is irrelevant.

We can't be sure it is, either. That's the entire point. The delivery driver has no idea what's in the boxes, and thus he should be treating every single one as if it's breakable, instead of treating every single one as if they're just socks.

The corporation being bad doesn't mean the worker should also be bad. That doesn't hurt the corporation, it only hurts the people receiving the packages.

Nothing a driver does with the package is anything compared to what they go through at the plants. Nothing a human does to a package comes close to what the machines do.

If you pack your shit properly then it'll be fine. If you don't, then it was broken before a human even touched it.

Poor drivers and couriers get the short end since every package is well destroyed long before it touches their vans. Why you think big name shipping facilities like Amazon, Fedex, and UPS love to ban the use of phones?

The more fragile stickers you put on a box, the more it gets treated as a basketball at the warehouse. Also have you seen the shit Walmart uses to ship products in? I have never seen cardboard specifically developed to disintegrate upon contact with water.

This is the truth. I watched workers on the line throwing boxes of literal laptops and desktops onto pallets because it was faster back in the day

Oh, do I have a story to tell. I've been wanting to make a topic on this exact subject, but it felt a little Gladys Kravitz-esque...

So, I have a neighbor who moved in a few months ago that has a USPS truck show up every. single. day (excluding Sundays). And any time I catch them loading it up, the driver will chuck the boxes into the back, before hopping in afterwards to organize them. I don't know what the dude does for a living, but it must be successful enough to have outgoing packages on the daily.
