A woman in Shah Alam won praise from Twitter users for setting up a free snack station outside her home for delivery riders.
Natasha Hidayah Hashim, 29, placed biscuits, candy, and hand sanitisers at her front gate as a kind gesture to delivery workers who are busier than ever dropping off goods during the movement control order (MCO).
Her Twitter post has gone viral with more than 2,600 retweets and 5,400 likes.
“Decided to do something small to show appreciation to my abang and kakak delivery,” Natasha wrote.
She came up with the idea over two weeks ago after she saw a delivery worker who had to bring her children along in the car while on the job.
She was also inspired by a tweet from an American video game streamer who set up a similar snack station outside her home as a gesture of thanks to delivery workers.
Natasha added that she rarely shopped online in the past but started ordering more stuff to be delivered to her home after the Covid-19 pandemic hit.
She plans to put out boxed drinks and mineral water in her snack bar for the riders to rehydrate as well. That way, they won’t need to stop by the shops to buy drinks and save time for their next delivery.
