Two drivers working on behalf of FedEx were fired after posting a video to social media that showed a confrontation between them and a white Georgia customer.
“FedEx called and told me to take down this video and fired both of us today,” one of the men involved tweeted along with a short clip of the confrontation that took place.
A part of the confrontation that transpired between the delivery driver and a Georgia customer was caught on tape and widely shared on social media.
The driver, who NBC reports was employed by an independent service provider, added that he posted the video because “we go through racism everyday on that route in Leesburg but he [the white customer] was the first one to actually come up and actually threaten us.”
