[QUOTE="Whither, post: 4774360, member: 76643"] Go for it, you've got nothing to lose. Just be aware that even if you are able to go driving soon and you qualify, it usually takes time and some harsh experience to settle in and get comfortable doing the job. You very likely will feel overwhelmed for a while, but if you adapt, work safely, learn the union book -- and, depending on what supplement you fall under, if you can handle working Mon-Sat for a long time (it is wretched) you will be making good money, and much better in 4 years time. I'm happy for people who feel they have moved on from UPS to bigger and better things, but I also think it's laughable when they stick around here after quitting and gloat about it. I like driving much better than working in restaurants. Yet I feel no need to tell old coworkers their jobs are worthless, terrible, and that they should 'make something' of their lives or get 'a real skill'. At the end of the day all types of work -- even work you like/doesn't make you miserable and pays well -- will remind you, it's still work. [/QUOTE]
