My name is Azeem Khokhar, and I work as a supermarket delivery driver. If a customer places an order, someone picks the shopping and puts it in crates at night. I then arrive in the morning and collect the shopping. I can deliver up to 24 orders during my eight-hour shift. I’ve been with the company for ten years, and on deliveries for three. I have served in the café, in food preparation, customer services, the staff canteen and other jobs in the store. I know my supermarket inside out.
