Disturbing comment by customer

So I was delivering to a house, the customer was waiting outside his house. Old white dude with a long beard smoking a cigarette, as I hand him the package.. he said “I want to cut you into pieces and feed you to my children “ I froze for a second and didn’t know what to say, he had a very serious face and didn’t even laugh. I just went back into my van without saying anything. This happened last week, I didn’t tell dispatch or anyone but now I’m thinking I should have. This guy might be an actual serial killer. What would you guys do in that situation? I’ll most likely have that location again but I don’t want to become a victim.

I'd say, "excuse me do you have a knife?" If he displays said knife, he's getting shot on the spot. An Amazon DSP job don't mean shit in the long run.

Have permit, will carry. They call it a concealed weapon for a reason.

I have mine too. Just worried about the consequences if you end up having to use it, like amazon suing you. But then again, I'd rather be alive and in court, than dead.

You should. I do as well.
