When this was first reported, the writer of the article made a big deal of adding that the Delivery Driver happened to be ‘heavily pregnant’. I guess it didn’t matter.
If you’re so very pregnant that you can’t walk around a lawn vs over it, that’s when you stay home for a few weeks.
If Maternity Leave is not offered, get creative:
Use Sick Pay + Mental Health Days + Vacation Days,
but waltzing across somebody’s lawn is not alright, it’s disrespectful.
RE: tire tracks all across that lawn...
Crosstown Traffic
by Jimi Hendrix.
...You jump in front of my car when you,
you know all the time that
Ninety miles an hour, girl,
is the speed I drive.
Crosstown traffic...
You’re just like crosstown traffic, so hard to get through to you.
Crosstown traffic, I don’t need to run over you
Crosstown traffic, all you do is slow me down.
And I’m trying to get on the other side of town.
I’m not the only soul who’s accused of hit and run.
Tire tracks all across your back, uh-huh, I can see you had your fun.
But darling, can’t you see my signals turn from green to red
And with you I can see a traffic jam straight up ahead.
There seems to be a driveway there, so there really isn’t an excuse.
The video is a head scratcher - who delivers Amazon packages using a Ford Focus that would hold maybe 6 similar sized packages tops? The grass is crushed down but not torn up - will probably be good as new in a day or so (not that it excuses driving on it) - the car isn’t that much heavier than a good riding mower / tractor. An actual delivery van would have done way more harm. I’m smelling clickbait here.
Use the driveway?
Ain’t nobody got time for dat!
Typical. Her dogs were barkin.

some people were never taught
He is a DELIVERY DRIVER. No mention about lawncare in the contract. Call the gardener and a translator.
Must be an illegal here in LA it’s normal to see 4 or 5 cars parked on the front yard.
Amazon forces their drivers and contract companies to cut corners to meet quotas that often compromise safety.
The delivery schedule has no built in time to use a bathroom. You have to somehow make up that time (guess how).
Getting forced to take on extra deliveries for slower coworkers (DEI hires?) after finishing your own route.
Lack of sick days.
