[QUOTE="laffter, post: 1060653, member: 43119"] Although helpers are there to work, not converse with their drivers, being with someone you can have enjoyable conversations with is a huge difference compared to the alternative. There are two guys I've helped this season who I loved driving with. Unfortunately, they've started placing helpers "permanently" with drivers now, and this guy always uses his brother come sometime in December. The other guy doesn't required a helper daily. Anyway, it makes the day go by so effing fast. Sometimes it can feel as if you aren't even at work. The guy I'm with now, the same guy I helped last year during all of December, conversations can be a bit stale. The day isn't as enjoyable - you can definitely tell that you're working. As far as being done by 5pm... there's one guy I helped this year, a true "runner gunner"... the first day, he had ~15 or so resi stops left by 3pm (pick-up time). The second day I helped him he had a few less stops, and we were at the same point by 2:30pm. I cannot recall how many stops he started off with, but I'm certain it's well over 200. [/QUOTE]
