Managers still checking to make sure we take the 1st class even if the round not thrown off, they just make you flick though and take out the 1st Class for a ride round.

But its correct, we never get 1st Class in first tray of sequence, only in Manual and the Small second bundle.

Incorrect, I can't remember the last time I saw a 1c in first wave, all 1c comes in small second wave or manual.


It's the same at my DO, what logic would there be including 1c in every tray of MECH as that would mean it would have to be look through for any 1c even if it wasn't going out that day?
Your local MC isn't doing things properly. For wave 1 ALL available mech mail is meant to be run whether it's 1C or 2C. The DTS system decides what 2C is due for delivery, it releases what is due for delivery.
Maybe ours are already compliant with odm and yours isn't?
Keeping 1c separate makes far more sense than combining it in a full tray of 2c?

Additionally I can't recall any suggestions by RM that 1c & 2c will both be delivered to addresses on 1c delivery days i.e. Saturdays.

Dont take what this lot say as the truth. You are spot on with what you say. The traffic comes out as you describe. The CWU aren't telling the truth. The workload on the day will be whatever has to go.

So it looks like HCT and rural will become the best duty. You get to only do half the frame fully each day albeit with 2/3 days mail and obviously the other half tracked, first class, specials, collections and boxes. And then you can have a coffee and then get back too late to help out on the walks that now have 17 days mail on them as the workload is too much. Great!
Sorry for being thick, and having to go over this again. But does the driver/singleton do half of a full duty and then all of the 1st and parcels on the other half And for the other walk they are covering (so 1 and half walks)?

RM have been clear that no second class is to be delivered on Saturdays whether it arrives at the DO or not on the Friday or the Saturday

What’s not to understand about that? They have been clear from the outset

You dont seem to grasp that just because it’s been released to the DO doesnt mean it will be delivered on the Saturday

There will be no second class being delivered even when or if it’s sent from the MC to the DO - how many times does it need to be said to you?

I don't give a s**t whether the DOs will attempt delivery of any 2C released by the DTS system, which only releases stuff when it's due for delivery, anything not delivered when released by the DTS is a DO failure, plain and simple. If you don't want to attempt to deliver 2C on a Saturday, you'll have to go through the sequenced to extract any 1C in it.

Anyone who claims that there is never any 1C in the wave 1 sequenced is a liar.
