In what could only termed as heartwarming, a Blinkit rider has shared a video detailing about a particular order where he refused to handover the parcel to the lady customer. The reason behind his refusal to handover will shock you.
The BlinkIt driver in the video made a selfie video explaining the details of event which he probably made after the incident got over. Actually, the lady customer had ordered three packets of rat poison at odd hours after mindnight. When the driver reached the location, he felt suspicious on seeing her cry.
He believed that the lady customer had ordered the rat poision for suicide. He opines in the video that he asked the lady on why she ordered the rat posion to which she replied that it was for the rats.
The Blinkit delivery rider opined that ordering the rat poison at that time seemed odd to him and persuaded the lady customer to reveal the true reason for ordering it. He then advised the lady to not commit suicide if she is facing any problem.
“I thought they had some issue and ordered this. But once I reached the customer’s location, I can’t just deliver this order, right? She just kept crying. Then I went to her and told, no matter what problem you have, don’t commit suicide.
I asked, ‘Did you order this because you want to commit suicide?’ She replied, ‘No bro, that’s not the case.’ I said to her, ‘No, don’t lie. You just want to commit suicide.’
‘If you had a rat problem, you could have ordered it around seven o’clock or even earlier, or maybe the next day. There is no reason for ordering it at this time.’ I convinced her and cancelled the order.
Today, I feel that I have accomplished something.”
