[QUOTE="!Retired!, post: 1234051, member: 24309"] I started as a temp. Not sure why they picked me, but I went out on a truck as a second man with a courier. He taught me the ropes (POD, release, DEX, etc). While he covered 1 building, I covered another. After peak, they offered me the job and I went off to courier class. I fell asleep during one class and was almost thrown out, since I already leaned most of it. They used to send potential couriers on the road with someone all the time. Whether it was as a runner or 2nd man. Why they don't do that anymore is beyond me. Pay them for the time and THEN send them to school. It would save money in the long run. Some will quit right away. I heard 1 guy quit while on the road with a manager. He just said 'I'm not doing this crap', handed him his ID, hopped off the truck and got on the subway. [/QUOTE]
