Anyway, once it's a great success and then the staff are released that's when it goes to s**t. What's the plan then?
You know how we rotate the failures in an office? Dan's going to write a letter to everyone saying 'clear your sector, not just your own office'.
The machine stops.

A CDV pairing will deliver 50% 1C mail and parcels and 50% all mail Monday-Friday, rotating fairly between the two postal workers. A third postal worker will cover a single duty along the same pattern.
I don't understand this...

A pairing will only have to deliver 50% of their (3?) duties? So what happens to the other 50% of 1st Class mail and parcels?
The pairing would take the other 50% of the first class and parcels on the 4 loops where they deliver EVERYTHING.

Found this NSFW video in that thread. Still fitting 16 years later

What, you want us to lapse 1 in every 4 walks? do 2/3 days mail every day? Pay some of us £2 less an hour? Don't give some paid breaks? Slash our sick pay? After making all the routes bigger and deliberately under staffing offices for years?!

For a 3/4.75% pay rise after massive inflation already made us effectively poorer?

The video maker had no idea how bad it would get
