[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1228490, member: 14668"] The last time I had a helper, she was (a) totally untrained on the DIAD and (b) I had an ancient, slow and crash-prone DIAD III for her to use while I was on a IV. Trying to talk her thru using a version of the DIAD that I had not handled in years was a complete waste of time. We were already an hour behind because in the confusion of a UPS peak season Monday morning she had been told to report to the wrong location. She had also been issued mens uniform pants that were 5 sizes too big and she was practically in tears at the though of having to wear them all day. By the time I found a bathroom for her to change in, we were even further behind. It came down to an issue of priorities; do we get the packages delivered or do we generate a meaningless metric for a meaningless report. I always vote for getting the packages delivered, but thats just me. [/QUOTE]
