Many people nowadays depend on delivery services for necessities such as groceries, drugs, and food. Countless families are able to remain healthy and secure indoors thanks to delivery riders. Julio “Yukii” Artana, a 27-year-old delivery rider from Imus, Cavite, is one of them. Yukii, like many others, braves the streets every day to deliver food to people’s homes.

 A rider who provides both food and entertainment.

Yukii is a TikTok creator who entertains his fans with dance videos, which he often produces while dressed in his delivery uniform. During lockdown, he first joined TikTok because it was famous. He had no idea that a year later, he would have 132k app followers and his content would receive millions of views.

Here are some of Yukii’s best TikTok videos, including one that has already garnered 4.6M views!

Having worked as a food delivery rider for two years, Yukii feels a sense of responsibility and pride in his job, and in his ability to provide this service to many Filipinos. He shares, “Masaya ako dahil nakakapaghatid ako ng tamang serbisyo sa customers ko, at nakakatulong din po kami upang mabawasan ang paglabas ng mga tao.”

The job isn’t always easy, and Yukii says that some days aren’t as productive and profitable as others as far as bookings are concerned. Apart from this, he also faces many other challenges as a rider. “Bukod po dito sa pandemic , may pagsubok din kami dapat kakaharapin kagaya po ng panahon ngayon. Sobrang init din po sa labas, samahan pa ng usok ng mga sasakyan minsan umuulan pa, at isa sa mga kinakatakutan namin na minsan na may mga client kami na hindi nakuha yung pag pagkain dahil sa kulang sa inpormasyon, like wrong pin location, dahil pera talaga namin pinang-aabono namin,” he says.

He says, “Sa totoo lang po nakatakot talaga ang virus dahil hindi natin sya nakikita, kaya double ingat din ako sa sarili ko, at tamang suot lang ng facemask, palakasin lang resistensya, at sumunod lamang sa tamang protocols.” Yukii is still concerned about the health risks. Realizing this, he makes it a point to observe all safety precautions.

Safety should be a priority, both in the real world and online

While our present situation requires us to take measures to remain safe and healthy, TikTok also takes steps towards fortifying its safety features, for the well being of all users on the app. These features include:

  • Family Pairing, which allows parents to turn certain app features on and off remotely
  • Screen Time Management, where parents can limit their child’s daily screen time to 40, 60, 90, or 120 minutes on the app
  • Restricted viewing mode, which limits the appearance of content that may be inappropriate
  • Preventing downloads of videos created by users under 16 years old
  • Preventing the use of videos created by users below 16 for the Duet and Stitch features, which gives other users the ability to clip and integrate scenes from one user’s video into their own
  • Restricting the use of videos for Duet and Stitch to friends only for users aged 16 to 18
  • Restricting of comments on videos created by users aged 13 to 15 to friends only
  • Limiting livestream hosting access to users aged 16 and above
