Firms delivery if its as mine involves a lot more thinking ie planning your route to do all the reggiies, tracked, large parcels etc . but i enjoy it far more than being stuck on a walking round TBH

Firms is a lot of prep and local knowledge.

Personally i would not attempt it without a couple of days training at the very least. :hmmmm
