[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 1945017, member: 11315"] Damn this was a long thread to catch up...LOL 1) Get your withdrawal card from the union. If it doesn't work out, you can continue a Teamster career in another company. (surprised no one mentioned this) 2) Find out what you have earned yourself when you turn 57 from your union hall. 3) If you were looking into a change of scenery, Feeders would be ideal as you can spend time with your kids during the day. 4) Moving into management only pads your resume and increases piles of paperwork. More responsibility with no increased pay. 5) It would scare the :censored: out of me to train new drivers. Our increased responsibility, diad knowledge, and telematics are insane. 6) Hours won't change much. You come in around 7 and once or twice a week you close up. Leaving the building at 5 or 6 is par. We start around 9 and most in my group leave around 8. No difference. 7) Hopefully you are very friendly with your management team at your center. They will be the ones that will most likely be promoted ahead of you and you need friends at high levels. 8) I feel you should wait until your divorce has cemented itself. Making life changing decisions DURING life changing decisions are DANGEROUS. You are a good person (from your internet persona) and we need good people running things who have driven before. Whatever your decision is , good luck and don't be a stranger to the BC [/QUOTE]
