Is FedEx Handling With Care?

It's Christmas week and the kids are eagerly waiting to open up their presents. That computer monitor you ordered up online is being delivered to your door. In all your excitement, it suddenly turns into shock as the FedEx guy tosses your monitor over the fence.

Ooops, its now broken.

Bad FedEx guy. Bad.

This video went viral on YouTube today and currently has more than 2.6 million views. According to the YouTube uploader, goobie55:

"The sad part is that I was home at the time with the front door wide open. All he would have had to do was ring the bell on the gate. Now I have to return my monitor since it is broken."

Poor goobie. Merry Christmas.

You know, I can understand that these delivery guys bust their butts off everyday - especially during the holidays. They are on a tight time schedule, drive through town in heavy traffic, and have lots of delivery runs. Expectations are very high at this time of year.

Clearly, this guy was lazy, He never bothered to ring the front gate to get the owner to receive delivery. Not only that but leaving an expensive item laying out in the open wasn't too smart either. I wouldn't be too happy knowing someone chucked my computer monitor over the fence when I wasn't home. After seeing this, it makes me wonder if "handle with care" really has any significance in the shipping and delivery industry anymore.
