The workload on Saturday will be whatever has to be done that day. Collections, priority items, redeliveries, due mail. Martin never refuted this when challenged.

If fairness to you space Phoenix, you did try and warn everyone. Martin never refuted what you said. Multi-million pound contracts don't care if it's Saturday or another day. What has to go, goes.
