NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) – A FedEx delivery driver in New York City was fired after Ultimate Fighting Championship president Dana White posted viral video of the worker carelessly throwing packages into his truck, according to TMZ.
White was being chauffeured around the city when he and another person filmed the FedEx driver throwing dozens of packages into the truck.
“FedEx: We’ll get your s**t there, but we’ll f**k it up!” a visibly amused White said into the camera, while his companion recorded the scene. The footage was later shared on Instagram and TikTok, quickly gaining traction.
While White appeared to get a kick out the scene, FedEx took the video seriously and fired the driver, TMZ reported.
“The behavior depicted in the video is unacceptable and inconsistent with the professionalism FedEx demonstrates every day,” a FedEx spokesperson told TMZ. “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.”
1010 WINS has reached out to FedEx for further comment.
