Man Captures A Karen Lying Under His Truck To Make Him Carry The Fridge He Delivered Inside On Video And Goes Viral Online

They say it doesn't cost you to be nice, but sometimes it really does when people try to take advantage of your generosity, so it is important to set your boundaries and not let others walk over you. At the same time, you shouldn't be rude or unreasonable. People who don't want to be a pushover but can't find the middle ground might become pushy and rude themselves. This delivery driver who calls himself thottyy.boyy on TikTok had to deal with a couple of women who many would call Karens and one of them just laid down in front of the car, not allowing him to go until he fulfilled her demand. More info: TikTok

Delivery driver wasn t able to leave after dropping off an order because the customer lay down in front of his tires

Image credits: Brian Timmermeister (not the actual photo) Thottyyboyy isn't very active on social media but he couldn't resist sharing a video on TikTok because the situation he caught on it was so ridiculous. It actually was so unusual it caught the attention of 26 million people. The video shows a woman lying under a car just next to its front wheels holding a phone to her ear, not allowing the delivery man to leave. The man then shows another woman he sees through his windshield standing in place, preventing him from moving. When the delivery guy says to the video that the woman lying on the ground wants him to run over her, she responds, "No, I just want you to put the refrigerator in the house." She then continues, "We can't lift that thing. We don't even have a dolly."

The woman was demanding for the delivery driver to carry in the fridge she ordered as she couldn t do it herself

Image credits: @thotty.boyy

The driver explained that this was a drop-off delivery so it wasn t his job to install the fridge

Image credits: @thotty.boyy The man clears up what happened in a follow-up video explaining that he delivered a refrigerator to this woman's house. His job was to drop it off, which he did, but the woman believed he was also there to remove the old fridge and replace it with the new one upstairs. The refrigerator was big and it's understandable that for two older women, it would be hard to drag it into their home and to install it by themselves. However, it wasn't Thottyyboyy's job, it's not just a small favor he could do without preparation and it usually comes with a cost. According to Home Advisor, some stores might include the installation cost in the price of the appliance, but if it's not included, you may need to pay about $200 more for the service. It might be that the two women didn't pay for the service or there wasn't an option to ask for it as the driver was instructed to drop it off. Image credits: @thotty.boyy

Eventually the driver managed to escape when he dragged the woman out from under his truck

Image credits: @thotty.boyy When the man started heading towards his car and was planning on leaving, the woman got under his car and wasn't moving, demanding that the fridge be installed. In the end, the delivery driver managed to pull the woman out from under his truck and leave. People in the comments were quite concerned about the driver because they felt it was a hostage situation in which the driver wasn't able to leave without running over the woman, which he obviously didn't want. They believed the woman wasn't doing this for the first time and is used to getting her way by throwing a tantrum.

You can watch the viral video featuring the crazy Karen below

@thotty.boyy Cant make this shit up 😂😂😂 #Fyp #Viral #karen ♬ original sound – Thottyyboyy Most people agreed that the delivery driver isn't obliged to install appliances or even enter someone's house, but there were some commenters who didn't understand why the man wouldn't help the women as they clearly weren't capable of putting the refrigerator in its place by themselves. Why do you think some people act like this? What would you have done differently in Thottyyboyy's situation? Let us know your reactions in the comments!

People in the comments were concerned for the driver s safety but also couldn t take this seriously as the situation was quite absurd

Which is likely why he refused them in the first place (installing the fridge would also take extra time). 11 11points reply Argle Bargle Argle Bargle Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago No way I'm dragging a fridge around for $40, then taking out the old one. I do auto parts delivery, which includes 800lb diesel motors, but there are no steps, doors, or other impingements. If I had to try and deliver something like a fridge into a house, it's a minimum of $100 for my trouble, and I just wouldn't be bothered to do it anyway. I'm not a fridge installer. 11 11points reply joop joop Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago I would refuse too. My dad always paid em extra, when he had already paid for it. 5 5points reply Colin Timp Colin Timp Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Even if they paid him, you're not getting a fridge in by yourself. You'd risk damaging it and then these women would obviously be the type to call and complain about that. Then the guy could lose his job for doing something he wasn't supposed to on company time. 11 11points reply Argle Bargle Argle Bargle Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) And definitely not worth risking a back injury over. You only have one, and when it's done all the insurance isn't going to make a bit of difference to the pain and immobility you will suffer. 9 9points reply Casey Atkins Casey Atkins Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Even using a hand truck or something getting the fridge inside alone past some stairs would be very difficult and likely to cause damage to the home or the appliance. 1 1point reply Sue Sue Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago And they talk about entitled Millenials!

Stereotypes exist based on evidence observed by many people you know. -13 -13points reply Neir Lucan Neir Lucan Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago You aren't "stating the truth" or making "observations based on evidence". You are falling for propaganda and bigotry. Do you feel the same way about white people?

Click here to view. Right. It never killed me to do that little extra that I'm capable of and an elderly person isn't. Good grief what a petty world we live in. I assure you doing a little outside your job description would not harm you in any way. -19 -19points reply Heather Bujaky Heather Bujaky Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Understand but it becomes a liability to the company and delivery driver if it was not paid for. If the delivery person was injured, the homeowner's insurance may not cover it. OR, the homeowner can sue if he damages her property while inside and since he's not supposed to be in there, and he would be personally liable. Its not just about "helping" an elderly lady! Plus she's clearly crazy so no way would I trust entering her home as a favor! 20 20points reply Larry Whalen Larry Whalen Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) Heather Bujaky; Ma'am, your comment is so correct as to not only the Civil liability for all involved, but also the OSHA laws that govern these work related incidents. For him to have taken it upon himself to deliver and then install the appliance if he had been injured while doing so Workers Comp. probably would not have recognized his claim for injury because he took it upon himself to violate his responsibility - and that was only to 'deliver' the appliance to the customer ! Therefore only one workman was deemed necessary - which by the standards in the State where I live does require two 'workmen' for a job such as described per CAL-OSHA. 2 2points reply ADHD McChick ADHD McChick Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago (edited) That aside, doing things outside your job description IS harmful. At least here in the US, where I live. Because here, it allows the company to exploit you. Oh, it might seem helpful, from the outside. And if companies saw it that way, as the occasional help it should be, that would be great. Then it would be okay. We all want to be helpful, to be seen that way, and to think that others would help us, too. But unfortunately, it DOESN'T work that way, in the real world. In the real world, if you give an inch at work, your bosses will always expect a mile. If you do a little extra, once or twice, your bosses will begin to expect it of you all the time. But they don't give you any extra pay, of course, nor does your hard work earn you any favor, or help get you a promotion. They just pile on even MORE extra. And then when you DON'T do extra one day, they shame you and make you feel like a bad employee. For simply wanting to do your job, and nothing else. Thinking that putting in extra work, for the same pay, is beneficial to anyone EXCEPT the employer is good old fashioned US American corporate indoctrination, at its best. Sad but true. I've lived it. Our workforce mentality here in the US SUCKS. That's why I no longer stay late, come in early, or do anything work related outside of work. I just do my little 8, and then go home to my REAL life, my family. THAT'S what is important. I do my job, to the best of my abilities. But I DON'T do extra. And there's NOTHING wrong with that. This is a hill I will die on. 0 0points reply ADHD McChick ADHD McChick Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Oh, and that if they even ALLOW you to do the extra. Some places, you try to do extra, to help THEM out, and you get scolded, or even talked about behind your back, for being "lazy", and neglecting your own job duties, even if you're not, and you didn't. No, in the US workforce, being "helpful" is not seen that way. And it's not worth even trying. 0 0points reply Diane Peterson Diane Peterson Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Did you not understand what the driver said? He had no equipment to bring it in. It wasn't a matter of money. He also didn't have anyone else to help him. What was he supposed to do? It wasn't in his job description because he wasn't hired to put it in the house and they did not pay the company to have it brought into the house.

If you'd care to read my main comment I posted it also has a few other thoughts on the matter since at one time I also had a job delivering and installing items such as this. -2 -2points reply Argle Bargle Argle Bargle Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago You sound like someone who's never lifted a fridge. 10 10points reply joop joop Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) If you pay for it, 2 ppl come with equipment to roll it. 8 8points reply Jessica N Jessica N Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Not paying an install charge then laying under a truck to get their way? Hopefully he never has to deliver to you either. He did not have the equipment to get fridge into house. For one person it would take a dolly at minimum which he did not have as he is a driver.

Sad thing is a lot of people are like this, they expect the whole world to be at service to them yet won't bother to help anyone. ? 35 35points reply fu yu fu yu Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Exactly. And who was that old lady calling anyway? The cops?? 18 18points reply Load More Replies... Kiki Rose Kiki Rose Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago He should have been called them. I would have. 6 6points reply Kenny De Metter Kenny De Metter Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) He probably had other deliveries to make and waiting for the cops would have meant serious delays and so trouble with other customers and his work. Which is likely why he refused them in the first place (installing the fridge would also take extra time). 11 11points reply Argle Bargle Argle Bargle Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago No way I'm dragging a fridge around for $40, then taking out the old one. I do auto parts delivery, which includes 800lb diesel motors, but there are no steps, doors, or other impingements. If I had to try and deliver something like a fridge into a house, it's a minimum of $100 for my trouble, and I just wouldn't be bothered to do it anyway. I'm not a fridge installer. 11 11points reply joop joop Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago I would refuse too. My dad always paid em extra, when he had already paid for it. 5 5points reply Colin Timp Colin Timp Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Even if they paid him, you're not getting a fridge in by yourself. You'd risk damaging it and then these women would obviously be the type to call and complain about that. Then the guy could lose his job for doing something he wasn't supposed to on company time. 11 11points reply Argle Bargle Argle Bargle Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) And definitely not worth risking a back injury over. You only have one, and when it's done all the insurance isn't going to make a bit of difference to the pain and immobility you will suffer. 9 9points reply Casey Atkins Casey Atkins Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Even using a hand truck or something getting the fridge inside alone past some stairs would be very difficult and likely to cause damage to the home or the appliance. 1 1point reply Sue Sue Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago And they talk about entitled Millenials! Every time I have ordered an applicance, I have to pay extra for bringing it in & installing it. I have had them put it just inside the door, but they volunteered to do that. 30 30points reply ALittleWiserNow ALittleWiserNow Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago This comment is hidden.

They could just be close friends, or related. My two aunts--sisters--lived together their entire lives until one of them passed; it's not so uncommon. But hey, any excuse for you to sh*t all over LGBTQ people, I guess. 8 8points reply ALittleWiserNow ALittleWiserNow Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago This comment is hidden.

Just because some are good, doesn't mean I'm wrong about many. Stereotypes exist based on evidence observed by many people you know. -13 -13points reply Neir Lucan Neir Lucan Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago You aren't "stating the truth" or making "observations based on evidence". You are falling for propaganda and bigotry. Do you feel the same way about white people? There are lots of very opinionated articles on that topic, with lots of stereotypes and evidence. 8 8points reply M Paxton M Paxton Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) This comment is hidden. Click here to view. Right. It never killed me to do that little extra that I'm capable of and an elderly person isn't. Good grief what a petty world we live in. I assure you doing a little outside your job description would not harm you in any way. -19 -19points reply Heather Bujaky Heather Bujaky Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Understand but it becomes a liability to the company and delivery driver if it was not paid for. If the delivery person was injured, the homeowner's insurance may not cover it. OR, the homeowner can sue if he damages her property while inside and since he's not supposed to be in there, and he would be personally liable. Its not just about "helping" an elderly lady! Plus she's clearly crazy so no way would I trust entering her home as a favor! 20 20points reply Larry Whalen Larry Whalen Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) Heather Bujaky; Ma'am, your comment is so correct as to not only the Civil liability for all involved, but also the OSHA laws that govern these work related incidents. For him to have taken it upon himself to deliver and then install the appliance if he had been injured while doing so Workers Comp. probably would not have recognized his claim for injury because he took it upon himself to violate his responsibility - and that was only to 'deliver' the appliance to the customer ! Therefore only one workman was deemed necessary - which by the standards in the State where I live does require two 'workmen' for a job such as described per CAL-OSHA. 2 2points reply ADHD McChick ADHD McChick Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago (edited) That aside, doing things outside your job description IS harmful. At least here in the US, where I live. Because here, it allows the company to exploit you. Oh, it might seem helpful, from the outside. And if companies saw it that way, as the occasional help it should be, that would be great. Then it would be okay. We all want to be helpful, to be seen that way, and to think that others would help us, too. But unfortunately, it DOESN'T work that way, in the real world. In the real world, if you give an inch at work, your bosses will always expect a mile. If you do a little extra, once or twice, your bosses will begin to expect it of you all the time. But they don't give you any extra pay, of course, nor does your hard work earn you any favor, or help get you a promotion. They just pile on even MORE extra. And then when you DON'T do extra one day, they shame you and make you feel like a bad employee. For simply wanting to do your job, and nothing else. Thinking that putting in extra work, for the same pay, is beneficial to anyone EXCEPT the employer is good old fashioned US American corporate indoctrination, at its best. Sad but true. I've lived it. Our workforce mentality here in the US SUCKS. That's why I no longer stay late, come in early, or do anything work related outside of work. I just do my little 8, and then go home to my REAL life, my family. THAT'S what is important. I do my job, to the best of my abilities. But I DON'T do extra. And there's NOTHING wrong with that. This is a hill I will die on. 0 0points reply ADHD McChick ADHD McChick Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 month ago Oh, and that if they even ALLOW you to do the extra. Some places, you try to do extra, to help THEM out, and you get scolded, or even talked about behind your back, for being "lazy", and neglecting your own job duties, even if you're not, and you didn't. No, in the US workforce, being "helpful" is not seen that way. And it's not worth even trying. 0 0points reply Diane Peterson Diane Peterson Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Did you not understand what the driver said? He had no equipment to bring it in. It wasn't a matter of money. He also didn't have anyone else to help him. What was he supposed to do? It wasn't in his job description because he wasn't hired to put it in the house and they did not pay the company to have it brought into the house. It's simple. 12 12points reply Bianca Noel Bianca Noel Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago And would you really feel comfortable going inside a house with those two... 9 9points reply joop joop Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Well she's not that dangerous.

If you'd care to read my main comment I posted it also has a few other thoughts on the matter since at one time I also had a job delivering and installing items such as this. -2 -2points reply Argle Bargle Argle Bargle Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago You sound like someone who's never lifted a fridge. 10 10points reply joop joop Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago (edited) If you pay for it, 2 ppl come with equipment to roll it. 8 8points reply Jessica N Jessica N Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 2 months ago Not paying an install charge then laying under a truck to get their way? Hopefully he never has to deliver to you either. He did not have the equipment to get fridge into house. For one person it would take a dolly at minimum which he did not have as he is a driver. I wouldn't expect Amazon to lift anything up my stairs unless i paid the 150$ for it. 8 8points reply Load More Comments Popular on Bored Panda I Used AI To See What These 23 Popular Cartoon Characters Would Look Like In Real Life 30 Y.O.
