Zomato fires delivery executive who was caught on tape eating delivery food
Tuesday, December 11, 2018 IST
A video that has now gone viral on social media shows a Zomato delivery executive taking a bite out of the delivery food and resealing it for delivery after he's done.
Unsupervised snack time costed a Zomato delivery executive his job after he was caught on video taking several bites out of a delivery order and then resealing the packet with the trademark Zomato tape to hide any traces of his guilt trip. The man in the video can be seen wearing a Zomato delivery t-shirt and carrying the very recognizable red food delivery bag. Sitting on his scooter, the delivery executive is seen taking several bites out of not one, but two separate containers. He then goes on to seal the aluminium foil boxes, carefully tapering off the corners to make the boxes look unopened. After ensuring a good seal on the boxes, the man puts them back in a plastic bag and further seals off the bag using watermarked Zomato tape.
To his utter horror, the delivery executive was being captured by someone with a smartphone camera, possibly standing in their balcony, enjoying the questionable act unfold in real time. The video was then posted on Twitter followed by a WhatsApp forwarding frenzy.
Quite naturally, the video of the hungry delivery guy came into Zomato’s notice and the company followed up by conducting an internal investigation. “We have found that the video was shot in Madurai; the person in the video is a delivery partner on our fleet. We have spoken to him at length - and while we understand that this was a human error in judgement, have taken him off the platform,” Zomato said in a statement.
