REMINDER - Please show our precious delivery workers we appreciate them!

Consider leaving a note of appreciation on your door/gate/window/etc. Let’s thank the many delivery angels who are risking COVID-19 exposure by delivering our groceries, supplies, mail, and medications. These kind and brave souls are performing an essential service while risking their health. They deserve our appreciation, our respect, and our patience.

As I’m once again back on the steroids, my immune system isn’t as secure as it used to be, so every step I take out of my apartment requires a lot of prep work and a bit of anxiety. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the workers delivering my medications and groceries are vulnerable themselves, and yet they are still out there, making these deliveries, early in the day and light into the night. The choices people have to make to provide for themselves and their families. These hourly workers are incredibly brave, much braver than I could be.

So if you can, please leave them a larger tip and show them some kindness! I know it’s hard out here, but an extra few bucks can help soften the blow just a little for someone out there working all day trying to make ends meet with these deliveries. But if you can’t leave a bigger tip, at least leave a note thanking them for their service. Better still, keep the area they have to access clean and clear of hazards. It really is the least we can do. I include the letter I taped to my door, feel free to use part or all of it. 

Stay safe and kind out there! I miss you all! 

XOXO
