A woman named Mary Paras from Cebu City is going viral for doing something unacceptable. Facebook page Pilipinas Trending Viral posted photos of a FoodPanda delivery driver picking up food off the ground under the heat of the sun.
Apparently, Mary ordered food from Chowking worth over P800 pesos, but when her order came she would not accept the food.
She accused him of being late and the two had a verbal standoff, according to the bystander who took the photos. The driver kept urging Mary to accept the order but she instead threw the food at him.
Netizens were disgusted upon hearing about the story and immediately attacked Mary.
Mary released a statement on Facebook blaming her slow mobile data for the incident.
In Bisaya she said: “Good evening sa lahat na nagcomment sa Food Panda. Hindi ko po intension na manloko ng tao higit na sa panahon ito. Magcocomment nalang din po ako kasi nasasaktan na din ako sa mga sinasabi ng mga tao.”
Grabe! kawawa naman si kuyang Food Panda Delivery rider, may umorder daw po sa kanya na worth 800 pesos na Chowking food…

“Kaya po eh explain ko po yung nangyari noong una nag-order ako pero nagloloading po at matagal yung net at data sa app. Hindi ko po namalayan na naorder na pala iyon at nadalawa na pala yung order ko. Noong dumating ang inorder po namin may tumawag ulit di ko nalang pinansin dahil dumating na yung order.
“Kung may mali po ako nanghihingi po ako ng pasensya sa rider, kinontak ko na po siya at handa po akong magbayad sa kanyang pinang abono at nagpapasalamat din po ako sa nagpost po nito para mabigyang linaw ang lahat.”
Even with the apology, people still think that her throwing the food at the driver was just uncalled for.
