    some casual staff that had been taken on and others were filmed stealing credit cards (there was other stuff, but the cards being stolen made my p*ss boil).

    some of them were stealing cards and selling them on, by the time the owners of the cards had realised that their cards had been stolen, thousands had been spent on them.

    other highlights included some casual staff being sent out to deliver post within a day of starting the job, not being able to find certain streets or appartments in flats and just dumping the post.
