Delivery riders have it hard. They are entirely exposed to the harsh and fickle weather of Malaysia. They brave through the scorching hot sunlight and stormy rain to deliver our parcels, and even if they are paid for it, it wouldn’t hurt to show them a little bit of appreciation, right?
A delivery guy shared on his Twitter, @faizal8704, about a heartwarming gift that he received from one of his customers when he successfully delivered a parcel.
“I can’t believe this, I’m delivering stuff to the customer but got sunscreen in return. I have no idea what this is for and googled it. Apparently it’s to protect your skin. Who would’ve thought that someone actually cares for a rider’s skin condition. Since we have to brave the sunlight and all.”
Tak sangka, dok hantar barang tapi cust bagi sunscreen dekat aku. Aku dari tadi dok google apa benda yang cust aku bagi ni ? Rupanya lindung kulit daripada matahari, ada juga manusia yang ambil berat pasal kulit aku, rider kan. Kena panas terik semua pic.twitter.com/tdnPSvdzot

Sunscreen may not be super expensive or anything, however, not everyone would be willing to give out freebies just like that.
“Make sure to apply that bro. Some people would only wait for discounts before buying that.”
“Take good care of yourself. If you don’t want the sunscreen, you can give it to me.”
“It’s important to use it every day. It prevents skin cancer due to UV rays.”
Probably delivery riders have no problem doing this job because of how Malaysian treat others. Keep it up guys!
