[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 3789665, member: 23516"] There were courier hires at Express who would spend an hour or two driving around to get an idea of the area. Some would get a route's planet station report and go home and look up the addresses on a map to get a better idea of stop sequence and getting in the habit of finding frequent addresses on the map. Other things as well. They tended to get off to a markedly better start than those who didn't. I don't think any one of those things made much of a difference and it could be argued that they didn't make that much of a cumulative difference. Those actions were simply the byproducts of people who are instinctively driven to take initiative and master what's presented to them. The drawback was that they were more likely to become bored with the job and go on to greater and more lucrative things. Some people have no use for professional growth, and that's fine. [/QUOTE]
