Bad worker

I saw this, shocking, she literally could have froze to death, how can you just leave someone laying on the ground?

Name and shame him and his nationality.

arista 12-02-2021 12:51 PM

No if you name him
he would not be able to work in that area

Make Sure he knows he did wrong.

rusticgal 12-02-2021 01:00 PM

Outrageous....whats the matter with people. Why wouldnt you help?....its against human nature :shrug:

Won't go down well with Royal Mail or his colleagues ~ too knackered what a ridiculous excuse ! I hope they sack him.

Ammi 12-02-2021 01:47 PM

...it’s really difficult to know what to say with this, it’s so devaluing her life and disregarding her safety...it’s very, very sad...I hope that she’s recovering well....

Vicky. 12-02-2021 01:51 PM

What a vile specimen this man is. Ugh.

James 12-02-2021 02:31 PM

Most people would help.

It's just that it gets highlighted when someone doesn't.

Cherie 12-02-2021 02:33 PM

He must be a sociopath to walk away like that

Up since 9...hardly the crack of dawn mate

Crimson Dynamo 12-02-2021 02:40 PM

I was dumbfounded when i saw this

He deserves to be sacked immediately

bots 12-02-2021 02:59 PM

i've helped complete strangers who had fallen ill a couple of times, it is inconceivable to me to walk away from someone who is clearly in difficulty. However, it has nothing to do with his job, he is just a soulless individual

Shaun 12-02-2021 03:36 PM

The mind boggles...

Cal. 12-02-2021 04:09 PM

Even if he couldn’t help for whatever reason, he had plenty of ways he could have got her help. Disgraceful.

Beso 12-02-2021 04:15 PM

I would imagine hes wandered right up to that camera in the past to post letters..

Get his ugly mug up on the net.

Zizu 12-02-2021 08:00 PM

His face will be plastered all over the media by Sunday at the latest I’d say .

Wouldn't be surprised if he was one of those abslutely terrified of covid (usually, those at very low risk from it, oddly.) and thats why he refused. Seen a fair bit of really crappy behaviour in the past year or so, and it often turns out its a 'omg, you might cough!' thing, rather than totally cold hearted. I blame the media. Tbh.

That's possible but, if so, I'm surprised he didn't vocalise that or mention "social distancing". Either way... I find it hard to believe he didn't have a phone? Or couldn't alert a neighbour?

Vicky. 12-02-2021 09:14 PM

Well yeah, leaving her was bad enough, but then not even reporting it or getting anyone else who could help..makes it quite unforgivable, rather than 'he was a bit of a twat'

I think I heard him mention Covid rules....but that shouldn’t have stopped him getting some help..

Ammi 13-02-2021 06:01 AM

...I understand that there might have been fear of direct contact with the lady but it wasn’t a choice of one thing or another with nothing in between in the way of options to help...to phone emergency services for instance and to have asked for their guidance in helping her...and the freezing weather temperatures atm plus the obvious older age of the lady was obviously extremely dangerous for her to be left for even a short time...anyway, we are very human fearful atm and I don’t know anything about him or what his reasons were for his actions and I hate the thought of anyone losing their job at a time like this but it is being investigated...we may find out more but we may not...I’m so glad that she seems to be recovering...
