    Do you really?
    Surely those 2 are gone ?

    The scumbags should be locked up in my opinion

    I don't think that is in the UK, the livery on the vans doesn't look right. Although the background looks like it is the UK, it's hard to tell these days.


    It wouldn't take much to fake that footage in fact. Just get some livery made up, not expensive, and off you go. That does happen. I'll have a closer look.

    Okay had another look. The car in the background seems to have a UK plate, but the livery on the vans is completely wrong for the UK.

    Plus if you look how he handles those boxes, there is nothing in them. I'd guess it's a fake.

    They have sacked that bloke as the one in the van could obviously just chuck the parcels on the floor himself - in fact he could sling them straight into the other van saving quite a bit of time.

    I've seen a similar vid with a DPD van and driver.
    I'm sure it happens with all the others as well.
    I guess you get incompetent twunks* in any firm or line of business.

    * Am I allowed to say twunks? - I don't think it refers to anyone's genitalia.
