FEDEX } Were You Expecting a Computer Monitor Lately? See It here!
FedEx has vowed to track down the deliveryman who was caught on video carelessly tossing a computer monitor over a fence during a delivery.
Company spokeswoman Shea Leordeanu would not say what would become of the employee once they find him, but added: 'This won't be his best day.'
The hilariously sad clip of a FedEx delivery man chucking the computer monitor has attracted nearly 200,000 viewers on YouTube in a single day, many of whom expressed fears that their holiday packages would be treated with the same regard.

Botched! A FedEx delivery man throws a computer monitor over a fence in a video uploaded to YouTube on Monday night
Leordeanu said company executives were 'shocked' when they saw the video and called the handling of the package 'unacceptable.'
The 21-second clip, uploaded to YouTube by user goobie55 on Monday night, shows the delivery man taking the package from the back of a FedEx-branded van parked outside of the home's front lawn.
Taking the package out, he walks alongside an iron gate enclosing the residence and past what appears to be a security keypad that might buzz him in.
Without missing a beat, its fragile contents are tossed onto a driveway on the other side of the gate.
Peering over his shoulder, the unidentified male continues his march back to the van - and, presumably, his next delivery.
Worst delivery ever: The man walks past a security keypad, which could have put him in touch with the person expecting the package - who claims he was home
That's that! The man returns to his van, peering over his shoulder before he get back behind the wheel, presumable to his next 'delivery'
'The sad part is that I was home at the time with the front door wide open. All he would have had to do was ring the bell on the gate,' the YouTube user who uploaded the clip wrote in the description.
'Now I have to return my monitor since it is broken.'
Within hours of the footage being uploaded, several others shared similar horror stories.
One commenter, claiming to be a former FedEx employee, attempted to explain - suggesting the package might have been in pieces long before the botched delivery.
'I can tell you that that incident pails in comparison to the way they [sic] packages are handled behind closed doors,' the user wrote.
'All of us here at FedEx have seen the video and quite frankly we were shocked,' said Shea Leordeanu, a company spokeswoman.
The company does not know who the package carrier is yet, but is working to track him down an will find him 'by the end of the day.'
The customer who posted the video has not contacted the company yet, Ms Leordeanu said. However, FedEx officials asked the person to come forward so they could properly apologize.
