[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1969620, member: 28388"] It depends on what type of route the driver has. If I was your driver and you'd been with me a couple peaks ago I could have used any warm body who moved quickly to deliver the rural mostly residential route and you would have never touched a diad. On my current city route it would devastate the route as my helper needs to be not only trained on a diad, but be fast with it and able to handle working independently for chunks of time and needs to learn/remember the locations of businesses/their protocol. It takes a supervisor working with my helper for a few half-days before turning him/her over to me then a week with me before they're close to where they need to be by the time peak gets going. My helper needed a day off recently and because of the need for a diad-qualified person they actually paid another driver their driver-rate to be my helper for the day. [/QUOTE]
