The last few years that's been the orogeny that's set apart the [supposedly] quiet post-Christmas season from the rest of the year. Frankly, I think this year the impact will resemble that of the pile of plastic bags filled with human waste atop Mount Everest - ie, a rounding error in the grander shitshow.

Hopefully if this year they send them DSA economy DTS or whatever it's called it might take the edge off a bit if they initially trickle through (I can't remember if that was available last year or before)

Mail Centres haven't got the capacity to store them every day while waiting for a first class letter to go with it. We've been told they will all come in one hit and we will get to manage them ourselves over 3 days. Usually what happens is they arrive on your day off and your round is not covered or your day off cover decides to not do any of them so you will end up taking the majority of them on one day anyway.

We've been told that the higher ups above MC level don't want it sat around in MCs for days until it all hits the 5 day limit and gets released anyway.

Did they decide that before or after parliament got wind of them delaying mail in MCs before delivery offices have a chance to leave it in frames?

Mail isn't being delayed in MCs, it gets released based on the product that has been used. DTS is short for Delivery to Specification. If a DP has a 1C item then anything for that DP gets released. If any item has hit the limit based on the product used then anything for that DP is released.

Why is anything being held at the MCs under DTS? If it's all going to be treated like Mailsort of old then just let us leave it in the frames until it has a higher spec item.

Take this week for instance. Previous days have been dead until all that DTS stuff hit us this morning - the most inconvenient arrangement possible since packets have now exploded. So instead of letting us exercise our own judgement to fill spare capacity yesterday, now it's spending Day 6 sitting in the DO. Micromanagement is not the answer.

We get the same every week, quiet first few days then usually on Friday we ended up with s**t loads as it all gets released after hitting the hold limit. I hope that once the ODM starts this holding ends. Because otherwise you'll have double mail and the usual to end of week deluge of junk mail.

Meanwhile in one of those offices, they are cutting staff as there stills parcels/mail at 8:30pm to be done . Yet they probley will blame the weather or somthing

Once the ODM comes in the holding will increase as for alternating days all mail for some walks will be held, and then released based on the product. In practice even less mail will be released before it hits the time limit.

It used to be much easier running the CSS machines before DTS came in as you didn't have to keep emptying stackers 18 and 19 which the deferred stuff comes out of. Some days you end up spending so much time emptying stackers 18 and 19.

Yeah that sounds about right, perhaps when whatever odm comes in they'll have to rethink/tweak it, some comments are saying RM don't want loads of council tax letters clogging up mail centres so presumably having to hold loads more mail until it's due for delivery won't work either, it's looking apparent that they don't really want the inconvenience of mail so maybe they'll up the price and ditch offering the cheap service.

Who knows, tbh I don't really care that much anymore, working for this company that seem incapable of doing anything without f***ing it up has taken its toll.
