[QUOTE="BrownBrokeDown, post: 1337676, member: 46824"] The first few weeks are rough. As your body adjusts (and you have to push your body so it will adjust) it will get less painful and the job will get easier. Before you quit, think about it. Pros: Probably the best paying part time job there is (not saying the pay is in scale for the work, but it is good paying for a pt job) Yearly raises guarenteed Larger raises than most other jobs (at my other job, I will be getting the max % raise next Feb...a whopping $0.23 on my 9yr anniversary) Great benefits for free (you may not need them now, but you might in the future. At my other job the employees have to pay for the healthcare [$3500/$5000 deductible] + dental [$1200 yearly max] + eye roughly $160 A WEEK for family coverage. Chance to eventually go full time Full-time jobs (PCD) can be better paying than a number of Associate degree and some bachelor degree jobs Pensions when you retire Cons: Management Management Management The job can be extremely physical Management I started here when I was 30. I really wish I could go back and have started when I was 18. I would be out of driver progression at this point making $33+ an hour. [/QUOTE]
