Witnessed a delivery man around 18/20 urinating on the pavement this morning before delivering someones new cooker. Chipolaters come to mind. He'll have a shock when his manager is waiting when he gets back!

Delivery drivers work shocking hours and rarely get time for a break.
Please tell me you’ve not actually taken time out of your day to contact them because someone’s had a piss on a pavement.

Sat looking through our window a week or so ago and a strange car pulled up on my drive, sat up and noticed a bloke get out of his car and take out a number of parcels then walk down the road.
Opened the window and asked him what he was doing, he had the nerve to tell me he wouldn’t be long as he’d got a few parcels to deliver further down the road, told him I didn’t give a flying so and so and to shift his car, cheeky bar steward...

He'll have a shock when his manager is waiting when he gets back! I hope you haven't grassed him up. A while ago my dad had to deal with a delivery driver of a well known company at his company. He delivered the parcel and collapsed in the car park. Dad rang the company to let them know that one of their drivers was in poor health (aswell as ringing an ambulance of course .) and all the company asked was "Have all the parcels been delivered?" No questions about his welfare, just about the parcels on his van. Turned out the bloke hadn't had time to stop for a break all day and was just exhausted. Turned out also that this was a daily occurrence. They are poorly paid and work in often dreadful conditions. Ever since I was told that I always ask any driver that comes to my door if they are ok for a drink and if they need owt. Just stop and think.

He'll have a shock when his manager is waiting when he gets back! I've done this as a job (not for AO). The availability of toilets is ridiculous. Yes, pissing on the pavement isnt acceptable and an emergency pee bottle should be kept in the back but I'd think about if you would really want to put someone out of employment for it. Obviously if it's the exposure that's the issue, then that's different.

But if they dare stop for a brew and a piss you’d get people like the OP complaining that their shiny new cooker was delivered 10 minutes later than the delivery slot said, the poor sods are on a hiding to nothing. I hate this relatively recent trend of trying to get people in trouble with their employers or sacked, people literally cannot afford to eat or heat their homes, it makes me sick.

I know mine quite well as keep her busy with deliveries and she often pops in for a quick break. She is about 30 and has that sexy secretary look but that has nothing to do with my kindness. 250 parcels a day at Xmas . Is that possible?

I had a DPD delivery and the driver asked for some water for his wipers explained I could do better than that and gave him some screen with wash, I’d hate to do that job.

Spot on window cleaners, food delivery, oil delivery, etc they're all offered a drink here it's just good manners to people who are out on the road all day

Regularly see them passing through where I live at 40/50 mph plus (it's only a 30) I travel home from Chester about 6am sometimes and a single, dangerous road am constantly overtaken by lunatic van drivers, not always delivery drivers. 9 times out of 10 they end up 3 cars or so ahead at the lights further up. Have seen 3 serious accidents in the couple of years as they pass on blind bends.

So you’ve never been caught short before? I’ve had to piss at the side of the A50 nowhere near any sort of shrubbery because I was seconds away from a flood over my drivers seat. Plus as has been pointed out these guys literally barely get any time in their shifts to do something as trivial as going for a piss.

Amazon treat their own drivers and warehouse staff like shit Hermes, Yodel etc... give obscene demands for their drivers The sub-contracted drivers get it bad as well
This AO bloke was probably fucking bosting for a piss. These companies micro-manage the shit out of time. You could be 2 minutes out and they'd question it. I get my time annoyingly micro-managed at my office, but I fucking dread how bad it is for delivery drivers.
I highly suggest you to think twice about sending any clip to his employer. Fucking people in this country have been rinsed dry, get the piss taken out of them by the government, can barely afford heating and food.
I should think the last thing he needs is getting the sack in the current climate.
(Nice dick length joke in there with 'Chipolatas' by the way, ironic as you're going to look a massive penis if you grass him in)

I work for a well known company, and when I started in '79 we were issued with a (now this is the stores item description) Piss Pot no.1. It was like a massive wok! Open the side door to hide the old modesty and piss away, then tip it down the drain. Easy eh?

If he was having piss up the side of your car or through your letterbox I could see cause for complaint. He might just be French, they've got form for having a slash in the street.

We had a few pallets dropped off recently and I was stupid enough to say to the driver about his scarcity and his new value. Apart from the extra HGV test every year at £800 of his own money, the spy in the cab and the state of the roads. He told me that his delays cost him £s. On the subject of access to the Wassery he said he delivers goods regularly to major M&S outlet and is not allowed to use their toilets or get a coffee. They kept him 2hours delayed unloading and he lost half a day's pay. Bottle in the cab or a £1000 fine for urinating in public.
After 35 years he'd had enough pointing out hardly anyone under 50 can be bothered anymore.

It's interesting the difference in attitude between these corporate remote workers even if they are sub contractors.
Under CDM construction operatives need to be no more than a 10 minute walk from a welfare facility.

Ordered a patio set last Thursday from House of Fraser, immediately got an order confirmation and then a dispatch notification and a text this morning saying that I’m number 93 and can expect delivery between 10-12 today, great service I can also track the delivery van on an App.
Ordered a boot liner for the car, again order confirmation and an email saying that my parcel had been handed over to the courier Royal Mail, tumbleweed service and not a word from them, useless more so as I paid for a 48 hour delivery as we’re waiting for the product so we can go away for a few days with the dog.
Royal Mail are pretty crap
Yodel just delivered the patio set, superb service.
