In the bustling world we live in today, with the constant influx of online orders to fulfil, it's no secret that delivery drivers have a tough job.
Moreover, with the rise of technology, everything also gets more scrutiny.
This is precisely what happened to an Australia Post delivery driver recently.
In the Sydney suburb of Manly, an Australia Post delivery driver was caught on camera in a moment of frustration that has since sparked a wave of reactions online.
The video posted online showed the driver hurling parcels onto the pavement after struggling to stack them on a trolley outside a retail store.
The incident, which took place in broad daylight, left onlookers stunned as the driver eventually picked up the parcels and placed them back on the trolley.
The video has since gone viral, prompting a response from Australia Post and a flurry of comments from social media users.
Australia Post quickly responded to the incident, with a spokesperson saying that the organisation has 'strict protocols in place' for team members when delivering parcels.
'These actions clearly do not align with the high standards we expect,' the spokesperson said.
'The delivery driver has been identified, and we will conduct a full investigation.'
Watch the video below:
The video has sparked a range of reactions on social media, with some users making light of the situation.
One wrote, 'Don't do that to my prezzies ya dog.’
Another joked, 'That's my Lynx Africa set ruined.'
However, not everyone was quick to condemn the driver.
Some social media users came to his defence, praising his usual service and urging others not to judge him based on this incident.
'This guy's a legend, he delivers to my store, and he's always super helpful. Just because you're seeing this video, don't jump on the bandwagon to slam him,' one user wrote.
Another described him as the 'best delivery bloke there is', adding, 'I see him daily at my store and he's always so nice.'
Posties being caught mishandling packages is not a new issue for the postal service.
In a previous story, footage was posted online showing multiple Australia Post workers aggressively tossing parcels into a delivery van.
The video garnered thousands of views on social media, with one urging the person to ‘send it to the news’. Read more about the story here.
