In an interaction that’s gone viral on TikTok, a woman felt judged by her Uber Eats delivery driver, after she made an unusual order at 9 am.

Gaining over 2 million views, TikToker Erecht ordered a bottle of vodka at 9 am, in order to make jello shots later in the day. 

However, she received some judgment from her delivery driver, who pulled up outside of her home, where she waited with a tip in hand. 

The driver handed her the bottle of vodka in a bag with a note that read “Look into substance treatment,” along with the details of a local help center. 

She said that she instantly went into “manager customer service attitude” mode, but still managed to laugh about the situation.

Underneath the video, she captioned it saying: “Last I checked, your job was to deliver. Not make assumptions about the person & hand out cards that weren’t yours,” clearly irked by the behavior of the driver. 

Most sided with the TikToker, writing: “I hope you emailed Uber Eats about her. How infuriating!”

Others had shared similar experiences themselves: “Ordered a Plan B once and the lady literally was berating me about it… definitely called and complained.”

“I had a lady at Walgreens act like this because I bought wine at 9:00am. I was on my way to work. Made sense since I needed to buy something else anyway. No stops after work,” another wrote.

A few, however, sided with the driver, saying: “That’s actually so kind of her to offer a support card like that! People love to find problems with anything!”

“Bless her for trying to send a message from human to another that there’s help out there. Nothing wrong with this unless you’re negative,” another agreed, touched by the driver’s behavior.
