UPS Worker Goes Ballistic In Wild Video After Getting Fired: 'What Drugs Is He On?'

A video showing an intense outburst from a UPS worker after being fired is quickly gaining attention on social media.

The clip, which has gone viral on X (formerly Twitter), features the UPS employee unleashing a profanity-laced rant against his boss, Darren, calling him various offensive names and complaining about the timing of his termination.

Warning: This video contains explicit language. Viewer discretion is advised.

The worker’s unhinged behavior and explicit language have sparked mixed reactions, with some viewers questioning his state of mind and others suggesting that his behavior was reason enough for his firing.

"Getting fired from the UPS store by this c-ck loser f-cking coward who won't even fire me at the beginning of my shift and waits until the end of my shift," the guy screams in the video. "Darren, the c-ck f-cking loser from 1892 who doesn't know anything about running a business."

The rant, filled with several explicit messages, goes on for nearly one minute before the camera shuts off.

It is unclear exactly when this incident took place. However, the video is now going viral on X (formerly Twitter), and people have thoughts.

"What kind of drugs is this man on?" one social media user asked.

"I’m sorry, you deserved to be fired," another claimed after seeing his behavior.

A third is calling for a "new meme" using screenshots from the video.

This is just one of many wild UPS stories.

Last year, Eric Klejka, a dedicated UPS package car driver and member of Teamsters Local 30, was reinstated to his job after being unjustly fired for "theft of time."

Klejka, who has been delivering packages to customers in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, for more than nine years, faced termination after taking a proactive step to address a safety concern with his truck. He explained that when he began his shift one morning, the truck he was assigned to was so filthy that he could barely see out of the windows, making it a significant safety hazard.

Concerned for both his own safety and that of the public, Klejka decided to take a few minutes to get the truck washed before continuing his route.

However, just days later, UPS fired him, citing "theft of time."

Despite this, Klejka's union, Teamsters Local 30, immediately went to work on his behalf, preparing a solid grievance in his defense. After three months of being out of work, Klejka's case went before a Western Pennsylvania panel, where the arbitrator ruled in favor of the union. Klejka was reinstated with full back pay, including lost benefits and pension.

Gino Bosetti, President of Local 30, expressed outrage over the situation, stating, “For a company that preaches safety and attempts to discipline members for minor infractions, it’s unacceptable that this driver was fired for being extra cautious knowing he would be out in the public eye all day.”

He praised Klejka’s decision to prioritize safety, adding that the company’s actions were wrong.

Klejka, who is grateful for the union’s support, shared his relief, saying, “I’m happy to be back at work and even happier to know I have a strong union that has my back. This shows how we can put UPS in its place when we fight back and enforce our contract.”

The case highlights the power of union support and how important it is for workers to stand up for their rights, especially when safety is at stake.

Thanks to the efforts of Klejka and his union representatives, UPS was held accountable for its decision to fire a worker who acted in good faith to ensure a safe working environment.

Earlier this year, UPS announced plans to implement major job cuts and close approximately 73 facilities, affecting around 20,000 employees by the end of June 2025.

“I want to thank all UPSers for their hard work and efforts in this very dynamic environment,” Carol Tomé, UPS chief executive officer, said in a statement. “As a trusted leader in global logistics, we will leverage our integrated network and trade expertise to assist our customers as they adapt to a changing trade environment. Further, the actions we are taking to reconfigure our network and reduce cost across our business could not be timelier. The macro environment may be uncertain, but with our actions, we will emerge as an even stronger, more nimble UPS.”

This decision is part of a broader effort to streamline operations, cut costs, and adjust to evolving market conditions, including a decline in volume from their largest customer, Amazon.
