- The video has since been shared to X and has sparked outrage online, with many condemning the customer’s behavior as unacceptable and racist.
The details:
- In the now-viral video, the male customer, whose face is not shown, can be heard calling the delivery man “dummy” and mocking his accent while asking him to contact his workplace after paying cash without receiving change.
- Despite the worker’s attempts to remain calm, the customer insults him further, calling him a “f*cking goof” and a “stupid brown guy.”

One user wrote, “No one deserves to be treated like this. I hate nuisance influencers,” while another said, “One of the worst displays of a human. If this is a nuisance creator, then any negative or unwanted attention he receives is justified.”
- Some social media users have also called on the Peel Regional Police in Ontario to take action against the racist customer, noting that he should be arrested for harassment.
