Duty 2 1st class and pkts
Duty 3 1/3 everything
Duty 4 1/3 1st class and pkts

Singleton duty

That's not correct. It's 4 bags heavy, 4 bags light for all three. The pair do all of duty 1 (heavy), duty 2 is everything that's needs to be done that day (light). They also take 1/3 of duty 3 (heavy) and a 1/3 of duty 4 (light). The person on their own takes the rest of duty 3 (heavy) and the rest of duty 4 (light).

On the day the light duties will only receive what needs to go. The workload will start to build after day two as on day three the deferred work will need delivering.

You've described exactly what was proposed as per all the information available before people voted it in.

(It's the same amount of work for the pairing and the singleton everyone does 2/3rds everything and 2/3rds parcels/1c from the total of the 4 duties but obviously singleton is probably more appealing for most people)

Edit...not to be confused with rural type singletons they do 50/50 of only their own duty everything/parcels+1c then having spare time they'll come and help you.

It's not nor is it what's been agreed. All three do 4 bags heavy, 4 bags light.

Thanks for pointing out my mistake I didn't read it properly, edited my original reply, I think I got sidetracked by the singleton doing 2/3rds of both aspects for two duties, here's the graphic if it helps anyone

I can see the driver making the non driver do all the heavy bags while they drive about in there van doing large and what ever is in the light bags. This is already happening in or do

How does the driver make the non driver do anything?
Does the non driver not have a pair?
