Re: What order is your Heaviest day to lightest day
It's hard to say with any certainty. I'd generally say it goes like this:
Friday
Wednesday
Thursday
Saturday
Monday
Tuesday
But Monday tends to be much lighter than Tuesday for packets. On Tuesdays I do tend to have a full packet bag to go with my fifteen bundles of mail (at most).

It does depend though if I am on the missort run. Wednesday with a missort run is the worst possible day for me.

I staged a Roger Moore impersonator festival in my local village. There were a lot of eyebrows raised, I can tell you.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Seems there are definite differences! Might be due to geographical location, pre or post revision. Would have thought it would be pretty uniform around the country but just goes to show.

Re: What order is your Heaviest day to lightest day
Fri (60-90mins o/t)
Thurs (50-65mins o/t)
Weds (30-45mins o/t)
Tues (15mins o/t)
Sat (1 hour o/t, mainly due to being allowed to do more indoor frame prep than anything, not that heavy to deliver)
Mon (no o/t)
Above now presumes that "double prep standards" have been implemented, so all I need to do is order my ~10 recorded and 6+ specials, before tieing-up. Arrive for work at 0945, having lost 90 minutes of prep overtime per day in the last few weeks.
