Yup. Great to see so many being exploited by minimum wage and zero hours
contacts etc so you can lounge at home and have cheap deliveries.


I think you will find the delivery drivers you are talking about aren't
covered by the minimum wage and if they were you would pay a lot more.
These things are being addressed as more and more is covered by the
minimum wage. You shouldn't regard it as a bad thing as its a lot better
than what was there when there was no minimum wage.
