[QUOTE="MR_Vengeance, post: 127168, member: 6463"] Questions: 1. Are the hours horrible all year or just peak season? Like say im a driver for 5 years. Will i work like 8 hours a day average? Or still 8-12? Like eventually in my life i would like just have an 8 hour a day job. [COLOR=blue]This is unlikely. but if you get really good at your route and depend on how heavy the route too, you might finish the day in 8-9 hours.[/COLOR] 2. Do a lot of people fail out during training? This would suck if i failed their training thing after declined the supervisor position i would have nothing. [COLOR=red]The actual training course is not very hard. what you need to worry about it's your 30 days ACCIDENT FREE trial. I heard this 1 guy got an accident on his 27th day, poor guy's crying in the office and begging for a chance to stay. needless to say they didn't pity him........[/COLOR] 3. Is the job safe? do you think i will get injured or killed before i retire if i make this my career? [COLOR=red]Unless you are delivering in IraQ :laugh: the job is very safe, just remember the 5 seeing habit AGKLM and pay attention to your job.[/COLOR] 4. Say you are a driver for 2+ years.
