Hardly needs exposing, everyone knows how s**t they are

I drive past an Evri depot, all of them in the car park sorting packets thrown on the floor, and in the rain

This is a disgrace, people not even earning minimum wage and big business getting away with it.
Where's ofcom and the government, surely this company needs its feet holding over the fire.
Any wonder you can't get a decent wage rise when companies like this are completely over stepping and getting away with it for years.

The postal industry, like all industries, is exploitative. It's not about what the employers do, it's about how workers react to the way the industries operates and specifically what an organisation like the CWU are going to do about it. If there should be any documentary if should be an undercover exposure of the CWU.

I know how to fix this. For a small fee of £30m my branding agency Me & Me can pitch new company names. 'Hermes' isn't being used, they could try that.
Any Questions?
Yeah, how do I get out of this chickenshit outfit?

Nothing to do with the CWU and everything to do with the law and minimum wage, wtf have the union to do with that.
Forget your anti CWU s**t for a minute and concentrate on how a big delivery company can flaunt the law and rip off it's employees and customers with no comeback.

It's everything to do with an organisation like the CWU, who by the way, have no interest in organising workers who are couriers because it's frankly too much like hard work for the lazy corrupt officials. Your final line in your tirade applies to the entire industry not just one company. And yes the CWU should be held to the highest standards. All workers should be embarrassed by the conduct of the CWU.

Evri is one reason why we have two tier contracts. Evri have the ability to undercut royal mail as they don't have to pay for certain things like royal mail does(sick pay, hourly wage, vehicle upkeep). As a result royal mail has to cut spending to compete.

Nothing to do with the CWU, all your bluster on here would be better channelled into perhaps "organising workers who are couriers" or is it "too much like hard work", as you can see it's easy to be hypercritical about something that has nothing to do with who you are criticising.
Wake up and seize the opportunity to create that which you desire, your own union, run by you for the benefit of others.
My last statement is aimed at evri and their likes, who use the system to underpay people and treat them like slave labour.
Not RM who pay above minimum, not by much, but who if they are not kept in check will become like the rest, not necessarily because they want to but because they have to so they can compete on a level playing field.
Feck sake man are you so blinkered.
