[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 181934, member: 198"] What your husband went through is actually typical. Not everyone experiences that but many do. The week long class does very little for a new driver. There is very little DIAD practice during that time. Since you said he hasn't been out since that day I assume he is a part-time cover driver or air driver and not a full-time driver. He needs to practice with the customer counter DIADs. Most buildings open their counters right as the preload is ending. I'm sure his sups will let him stay over and practice on packages that customers drop off. He might have to do this off the clock though. Another thing he should do is get some air driving time. It is much more relaxed (comparitively) and there is a little more time to mess with the DIAD. Saturdays air driving is the best time. This is how I was able to feel somewhat comfortable on the DIAD when I finally started more regular driving. And yes....he should keep asking when he'll be going out again. [/QUOTE]
