Have done a decent amount of seasonal driving, but I have waited a long time for this opportunity so I don't want to mess it up.

11)

Get a printout of the route for Friday. Drive it on Saturday and Sunday, make notes on a map of number breaks, landmarks, safe driveways to go into, stuff like that. What really helped me was using google maps satellite view. I'd just stare at it for an hour or two and it starts sinking in. If the load is really bad, take some time to sort that section 1000's at a time. Searching for the packages is my biggest time killer.
Besides that, once you clear up 3ft of space on a shelf, push the rest up. If you want to cheat and are in a safe area, leave the bulkhead door key in the lock. If you start getting really flustered, stop for a few minutes. When you rush, you make mistakes.
My center is really mellow with stuff. If you don't run someone over or have 50 missed in a day, you're in. Don't stress it.
I thought about going this but i don't want to get into bad habits.
I know, but I've always fumbled with keys. The main reason I do it now though is anytime I take the key out of the ignition to the bulkhead, I always get shocked. It just gets annoying. My oncars know I do it and anytime they ride with me, that's the first thing they do. Getting zapped 200 times a day sucks.
