We all know the brown uniformed UPS delivery drivers but recently concerns have risen regarding the working conditions of the drivers responsible for keeping up the company’s good reputation.
In a recent viral video posted to TikTok, UPS driver Rakesha Sanders is seen asking a homeowner to spray her down with a water hose in order to combat the heat.
@rakeshasanders One thing im not scared to do is ask lol. Its too hot out here today. #FastTwitchContest #viral #viral #fyp #foryou #foryou #fypシ #foryoupage #xyzbca #CapCut #k18results #funny #upsdeliverydriver #ups #upsdriver #upswoman #hot #upsdrivers #upsdriverproblems #upsdrivercoolingoff ♬ original sound – Rakesha Sanders
Sanders regularly shares her experiences as a UPS driver and the vast majority of her stories are quite pleasant; however, comments posted underneath the video were full of mixed responses. While some felt the moment was a true testament to the good faith nature of the resident’s willingness to help her cool down, others pointed out the unjust and inhumane conditions many workers are subjected to. “I sure hope y’all get A/C in those trucks soon. Appreciate your hard work,” one commenter wrote. Another responded, “They need to put air conditioning in the trucks. It is unbearable in the summer.”
