The controversy erupted after Yasir discussed the common frustration of riders claiming they have no change during deliveries on her morning show, Good Morning Pakistan. She had suggested that making riders wait when they don\u2019t have change could help them realize the impact of this habit on timely deliveries. \u201cWhen they\u2019re made to wait and end up reaching their next deliveries late, then they understand. It\u2019s become a habit with many of them now,\u201d she said during a discussion with guests Nadia Khan, Saima Qureshi, and Rabab Masood. The remarks received mixed reactions online. While some viewers agreed with her perspective, many criticized her for overlooking the pressures faced by delivery workers, urging empathy and suggesting practical solutions like digital tipping or carrying exact change. Nadia Khan and the others offered nods, jokes and examples from their own experiences, keeping the mood conversational.
