You do them over 5 days and not 6.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Re: Ridiculous times for prepping walks
So it doesn't take into account the "type" of D2D either then ??
For example - a Virgin Media D2D already in an envelope is a lot easier to prep than a bloody flimsy FarmFoods folded A3 glossy piece of "paper" ...

4 d2ds this week
Off today so it got 2 days to do 4x700 d2d
I think its fair to say Ill just be doing the 2 days set amount and not the whole 2800

Re: Ridiculous times for prepping walks
Good luck on that one and not getting "willful delay!" At least that's my understanding of it, one third D2D a day this week, after the "great deal" that was sorted for everyone.pickaname wrote:4 d2ds this week

Prep the whole lot. Then leave the rest in the hands of the gods - your contracted hours remain unchanged, whether with no d2ds, 5 d2ds, 10 d2ds (a likely future reality).pickaname wrote:4 d2ds this week

Re: Ridiculous times for prepping walks
Still reckon the future ought to be:
Monday - Friday - Mail
Saturday - No mail .. just D2Ds
Sunday - Trip to recycling centre
