A delivery driver who claims he was fired for “smelling awful” after just 48 hours on the job believes the “stink” was caused by an allergy he had to the firm’s polyester uniform and he should have been allowed to wear other clothes.
Benjamin Blake worked at Sun Water Coolers for just one full shift before getting the boot after colleagues complained about his body odour and he was told to “buy different deodorant”.
The 29-year-old noticed a strong musky stench within minutes of starting his first delivery round but figured that he must have simply forgotten to put deodorant on that morning.
