A Nashville DoorDasher thought he was going to get away with spewing racial slurs during an otherwise routine delivery. But the internet had time for him.
After receiving a food delivery by DoorDash, TikTok user @ChristinaTheeDemo checked her home Ring camera and was shocked by what she heard.
“Here’s your food, n***er,” the white male Dasher said as he took a picture of his delivery.
In the video, the Dasher — whose identity is unknown — walks away but can be heard saying “chow down, n***er,” seemingly addressing the customer.
The woman uploaded the footage to TikTok in hopes of getting answers from the company itself. “WHY the HELL is this man employed by you????! Fire him IMMEDIATELY, HELLO” she wrote in the post’s caption.
As of Tuesday, the original TikTok video of the incident has over 3.2 million views and 25,000 comments, but has apparently been muted by the social media service as a result of the racist language.
“I legit have no idea what I was expecting but it was NOT that,” replied @cathno14 on TikTok.
“I like how he said it outside the door and not in her face,” said @cali_made510.
The video found its way to X, where outraged users shared their own stories with racist DoorDashers.
Another wrote, “I wouldn’t eat that. God only knows what low life thing he did to it.”
The customer filed a complaint directly to DoorDash, who responded with, “We have investigated this incident and taken appropriate action by removing this dasher from the platform,” according to Atlanta Black Star.
The incident triggered the dissemination of an older video of a female dasher taunting a customer, saying “come get it, ni–er” after delivering an order.
DoorDash has yet to release a public statement regarding either of these incidents.
