Delivery job in town automatic or manual

I'm trying to get a delivery job in town as I have two young kids and want to be home. I do come from the automatic type family as I have never driven a stick extensively until this cdl school. I have driven in town in multiple vehicles for the better part of 20 years but never a stick. What's better for in town deliveries a manual or automatic? I also have a class b driving job that im looking at also delivers but it's all automatics. My comfort level is much better in a automatic as opposed to a manual because of all the driving I've done in automatics. I have a chance to test in a manual or auto but I don't want to fail the manual test. It's already been to long and I need to get back to work as soon as I can. How much does a restriction hurt with the in the city jobs? I ultimately want to get experience and move on to the Pepsi and Budweisers of the world.

 

I think one both jobs I'm looking at are at least 15 stops a day. I'm also looking at Sysco and I imagine it's the same there.

 

OTR would be great but both my kids are under the age of 4. I'm so used to an automatic that a manual looks daunting in town. OTR not so much.
