Exactly my thoughts, costing RM fortunes

Rurals and non rurals conflict. Huge one that

[tramssirhc]

Its a very long way of saying it doesnt work.

[Perseus]

Duties being put back in is a red herring. It's just a way of spreading out the 50% of duties that don't get mail every day.

Well who'd have guessed that, rurals untouched stay nice and easy especially Mon and Tues whilst shared duties shafted every day especially Mon and Tues with 3 days mail on the alternate duties

A roaring success
Ayr getting another 5 duties put in
Prob got more duties now than when they started
Laughable

[Mr Rush]

Ah yes, another prediction come true...

From the bulletin: "There is an interesting indication of customer response to the pilot, with Reps in the Division reporting that some customers who previously sent out magazines, gift cards and periodicals, have switched from second-class mail to first-class. This has, so far, had a significant effect on combined days."

Our survey said:

How would operations fair under Half Daily Delivery if the bulk of stamped mail shifted over to first class after implementation? [...] First class is already being prioritised on duties and loops not going out so it would be reasonable to assume this would play out similarly [to the explosion in Tracked] when the public catches on that 1st class letters are the only ones meeting their targets.

Not really when I assume only around 50% are going out each day?

When sorting flats last night, I noticed an increase in the amount of 1C.

Not quite true. About 30 duties taken out and 3 walks are getting put back in along with a DPR duty.

[Mr Rush]

When sorting flats last night, I noticed an increase in the amount of 1C.

Probably the fallout from that letter RM sent to businesses last month telling them of their pre-emptive plans. Since rollout is reportedly on hold that would presumably boost revenue from converting DSA and 2C volumes to 1C this summer.
