Why are nyc food delivery guys so short?
Not at all hating on short people as I myself an vertically challenged, but why does it seem like every singe food delivery guy in this city is 5'2"? Always thought it was such an interesting and random correlation
Damn bro let them make their coin LOL
bro woke up and started hating for no reason lmaooo
Hard enough being short as it is, and now they can't even deliver food without getting shit on for their height. lol
In my experience, it’s mostly immigrants from Latin America, where the average height is shorter.
Doesn’t make a difference to me — good service and make sure to tip them well.
As a member of diversity, this is correct
I personally only tip tall people.
Short king spring just ended bruh, give ‘em time to get back into their hobbit holes when the fall arrives
Aren't poor people statistically shorter?
I vaguely remember reading that somewhere. Taller people have more confidence, are more likely to be a CEO or something, and have a halo effect on them so their income is higher. And like someone said, many are Latino immigrants, and Latinos are shorter.
Lack of nutrition and underdevelopment esp. in the countries that they immigrate from.
Low center of gravity helps with turning and quick evasive maneuvers from cars on their electric bikes. Also being shorter means less weight overall which allows for higher top speeds on straightaways. Natural selection bro. Gotta get the food there quick.
Higher top speed and higher range on some of those dope ass battery-supplemented bikes and scooters
Hispanic people are mad short. I'm 5'6 and whenever I visit my family in Peru im like a giant. All the guys are like 5'1, 5'2
Interesting observation, I never even though about that until now. Maybe being short gets the job done easier?
Modern day Pony Express
They are almost all El Salvadoran migrants making less than minimum wage before tips. They typically live in bunkrooms deep in Queens, sleep in shifts on shared beds, send most of their earnings home to their families living in even more disparate poverty (and plagued by gang violence and political strife) and get hit by cars and trucks at an astounding rate to deliver your $35 expensed seamless meal, rain or shine, which you probably still tip poorly on.
Also, the average male height in El Savador is like 5'6. Show some self-awareness and critical thinking skills...
Not that deep bro - I usually tip $4.50+ at minimum even when ordering from down the block
