FedEx driver says he would not deliver to homes with BLM flags is no longer employed with the company
A FedEx employee has been fired after he made an expletive-filled TikTok video alleging he wouldn’t deliver packages to homes if there were Black Lives Matter, President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris flags according to USA Today.
“What’s up TikTok. Just wanted to come on here and let all you know if you have a Joe Biden, Kamala [expletive] camel toe [flag] posted up in front of your house — Black Lives Matter [flag] , I will not deliver your [expletive],” Vincent Paterno, the employee, said in the video. “I will bring that back to the station and I will keep doing that [expletive]. Have a good day.”
Paterno posted the 36 second video on TikTok on Sept. 16 while wearing a FedEx uniform and appearing to be in a delivery truck. The video has went viral with many people commenting under the video that he should be fired. FedEx told USA TODAY in an emailed statement that Paterno was no longer an employee with the company.
“We are appalled by the behavior depicted in this video, which does not reflect the views of FedEx. This individual is no longer providing service on behalf of the company,” the statement said.
Paterno posted a follow-up TikTok saying he decided to quit and wasn’t fired after multiple news sites reported he was let go.
“I didn’t know I could get fired when I didn’t work there anymore,” he said.
