A Just Eat driver is refusing to deliver for McDonald's as he claims staff wanted him to go through a 'degrading obstacle course' including scaling a 5ft fence to get to the restaurant. Ben Andrews says drivers were told in July they could no longer use the car park at the Grangemouth branch in Falkirk, with the manager suggesting they pull into a nearby industrial estate instead.
The 33-year-old claims that the only way to access the restaurant from the abandoned estate is on foot, with the journey including a climb over a 5ft metal fence and clambering through a bush. He claims that other drivers navigate the fence by dropping customers' food on the other side and hauling themselves over.
When Ben voiced his concerns over the 'inappropriate' situation, he claims a staff member took an order from him and threatened to call the customer to say he was 'refusing to deliver'. He is now refusing to carry out deliveries for the store until he is allowed to use the car park again.
