[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1081587, member: 43436"] I'm a Preloader, but I've done my share of air, coverage & seasonal driving. I have very soft, feminine skin; my hands crack & bleed real easily so I always wear gloves. Most days, I unload, spa & sort, handling over 5,000 packages in less than four hours - thus finding comfortable, durable gloves is a challenge. For the past several years, I've been using a pair of Home Depot-branded gloves -- they grip strongly (especially important when unloading) and typically last about a month before wearing out (as measured in 'when my hands become dry and dirty'). When I drive, they last much longer -- typically two to three months. And best of all... a 12-pack is less than $10. (And no, I don't have any problems using the touchscreen on DIAD V). I've spent that much for a single pair of "fancy" gloves that didn't last much longer. It also helps to use moisturizing soap & lotion daily. Dollar Tree sells a large selection of generic brands for $1 -- hand soap, bath soap & moisturizing creams. You should also have the "good stuff" -- e.g. Lava soap & Aveeno land lotion -- available for when things get bad, especially in the winter. [/QUOTE]
