Woodzy had a similar experience, claiming that one of the staff pulled out in front of his motorbike while playing with her phone. Hugh Fairs, on the other hand, was upset by an employee's reckless behavior, leaving a dog unattended in a locked car with all windows rolled up except for a small gap in the sunroof.
