[QUOTE="CleverNameHere, post: 2343799, member: 51604"] Nope it's a POS walk away. Unless being owned and increasingly ridiculous demands by the company sound good. Remember you "can't take it with you." And some people for whatever reason enjoy or are at least completely not bothered by the workload. 140 lb boxes all over 50+ heavy pkgs at schools, beauty supply, basically places with no dock. Every good time of year for everyone else will be ruined for you. Holidays?? HAHA you'll be cursing your life besides being able to afford stuff for your loved ones you'll barely see. Summer? Same forget it you will be too exhausted and worried about hydration and rest to enjoy that beautiful time outdoors, bbqing, etc to do anything. I think the mindset of some is so anal retentive that "work work money money" becomes a robotic mantra. While their loved ones suffer. Now, if you are a single guy doing what you please in spare time anyway, go for it. Otherwise you'll turn into someone that the people you love and work so hard for won't want to be around you anyway. If they eliminated the stuff that should be shipped freight in the first place, hired enough drivers... Different story. Was hospitalized for psychiatric reasons over the stress. It's more than "not for everyone" it's "not for barely anyone." [/QUOTE]
