UPS WORKER MAKES A SHIDDICH
« on: May 06, 2014, 09:37:20 PM »
UPS WORKER MAKES A SHIDDICH MATCH
Their truck says 1-800-Pick-ups. One friendly UPS worker lived up to that ‘pick-up’ promise in a unique way. He helped a Hasidic young man pick-up a local Hasidic girl; and they’re getting married!

In this close-knit community of Crown Heights, the matchmakers (shadchanim) just got competition.
As reported on The Partial View blog, a UPS driver in Crown heights had an idea and acted as shadchan (matchmaker) between the boy and the girl, stated the Israeli website Charedim10.

The driver, while making his daily deliveries around Crown heights, got to know his customers well. One day he had an idea of matching up this boy and girl he knew. He gave each one the info about the other and within a few weeks they were engaged! Talk about fast delivery! The L’Chaim (engagement party) took place and the shadchan was there to join in the celebration.

Really? I find that very hard to believe.

And they both had deliveries twice a day, and they both always were the ones answering the door?

Most people who make shidduchim meet the people for a few minutes.... so don't need a ton of time

Chances are it's the same guy doing dropoffs in the morning and pickups in the evening.
If they both work for companies in Crown Heights, that could be it.

You don't really have to know people to make a shidduch.

Why don't you people just read the article that Dan linked, instead of merely speculating how the driver could know them so well?!  ???

Quote from my cousin: "Yes he has been my UPS driver in my office on Eastern Parkway for about the past 25 years. His name is Terry Spiers. He knows almost everybody. He always talks about setting people up and coming and saying what about so and so."

I have his cell but he probably wouldn't want it given out. Just stop by eastern parkway any day.
