They're paid at the Step 1 pay rate, generally limited to 24 hours/week (no OT usually), no benefits either. My station just hired quite a few Swings and Regular Couriers. We're certainly not fully staffed, but with Response going away soon our workload will at least be more manageable for those who had to deal with the Response sort in the middle of the day. I'd personally rather have 40 more stops a day given to me in the morning than deal with 20 extra given to me at Noon.</blockquote>
