She’s being über safe.
Tia Zakher made more money delivering Uber Eats orders at night, but was forced to disguise herself as a man to ensure her safety.
In a TikTok clip, with more than 270,000 views, the 20-year-old showed off her masculine masquerade and explained that, despite making “more money at night,” she was terrified to be dropping off deliveries.
Her video — captioned, “male privilege” — featured the former part-time delivery driver in baggy trousers, an oversized jacket, a gray hoodie (with the hood up), a flat brim baseball cap and, lastly, a surgical face mask.
“I feel unsafe delivering nighttime orders appearing as a woman due to chances of harassment or unwarranted attention from men on the street,” Zakher, who lives in Canada but is originally from Egypt, told The Post.
In other words, it’s an effective deterrent, akin to New Yorkers donning oversized “subway shirts” on the train to ward off creeps.
“I came up with the idea to dress up as a man as I felt like I would feel more safe when doing so and it is less likely for someone to bother me,” Zakher told The Post.
Her remarks coincide with a rise in violent incidences involving delivery and ride share drivers, according to the Associated Press, which has struck fear in gig workers.
In the comments, Zakher’s viewers advised her to wear “baggier pants” and add a spritz of men’s cologne to appear more convincing, while others lamented the reality of being a woman alone at night.
“Its so sad we have to go through this as women,” one user wrote.
“That’s so smart lol,” another said.
“Me walking to getting groceries at night,” someone else quipped.
“This is so smart. I will start doing this when riding late night public transporation [sic],” one person commented.
“I thought you were a guy,” another user said.
