Your delivery person is hustling hard right now! Here’s a delightful way to express your appreciation.
Can you even recall the chaos of holiday shopping before the wonders of online shopping? If you’re drawing a blank, let us refresh your memory: it was a total disaster. Everyone procrastinated until the last possible moment—classic human behavior—resulting in crowded malls filled with frantic shoppers just days before Christmas. Christmas Eve? A complete nightmare. The days leading up to Hanukkah were no picnic either. Thankfully, now we can shop from the cozy confines of our couches, all thanks to the dedicated folks at UPS, FedEx, and USPS.
These workers are putting in some serious effort right now, and a viral post by Jenna Miles on Facebook is reminding us how we can sprinkle a little kindness their way as they help us maintain our pants-free shopping habits. Oh, you don’t shop without pants? Neither do I… cough cough.
Jenna shared an adorable idea: a small box filled with snacks and water for delivery drivers, which is a thoughtful gesture during this hectic season. “I wanted to do something nice for the delivery folks who have been working tirelessly this holiday season! (They’ve definitely been busy!),” she wrote. “I had input from a few spouses of delivery drivers who mentioned how much they appreciate it! If you’re ordering a lot online, consider treating these hardworking individuals during this busy time!”
Just a few bucks for snacks sends an awesome message of gratitude. It lets them know that we recognize the hard work they put in to spread the holiday cheer. After her UPS driver visited, Jenna shared an update: “Our UPS guy came by and I could hear him chuckling before he even rang the doorbell! He always hands me my packages instead of leaving them at the door! He was so thrilled and wished he had his camera to snap a pic! 😂 I told him it would all be here the next time he comes around! He snagged a couple of treats and got right back to work.” Brilliant!
