[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 915471, member: 10234"] Back in the day....most of my helpers from year to year were college kids on break. The females were usually the best although I did have one male that was darn good. I started my day running rural, so I would pick them up in the small town I delivered when I got there. after delivering the town, I would ask them if they wanted to make money. Most did so I would take them into the country. They ran the stops while I got the next stop ready to go. We made great time and I would get back to the town and use them to help make pickups. Then I would turn them loose, take my break and return to the building. I would get done at a decent time and they would make the money they were promised when hired. I got into a little talk with one of the sups about keeping them too long. When I did the math about how long it would take me to run that many stops alone and the cost.....verses the total cost and hours with the helper, nothing was said to me again and I almost got to enjoy the peak seasons. Then the last couple of years I worked they said I could only use a helper for 2 -3 hrs. I said forget it...I'll do it myself. And I did. Some day I'll tell you about when I trained 2 sups and a center manager from a neighboring center to use diad 1. Oh brother!! [/QUOTE]
