In the 2001 romantic comedy, “Legally Blonde,” Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods befriends manicurist Paulette, played by Jennifer Coolidge. Paulette expresses to Elle that she has a crush on the UPS delivery man, but she is too clumsy and awkward to act on her feelings. Elle teaches Paulette a maneuver called the “bend and snap” to get the delivery man’s attention next time he drops off a package to the salon. Despite accidentally breaking his nose during the “bend and snap,” Paulette and the delivery man end up getting married.
Although most deliveries don’t result in marriage, nevertheless, delivery personnel play a crucial role in distribution within the beverage industry. With growing demands placed on beverage distribution, experts note that increasing challenges, coupled with high consumer expectation has created some concerns among delivery personnel.
