[QUOTE="jbomb1010, post: 402511, member: 13540"] I started in 1989 at the age of 28. Newly married, no kids and had always wanted to work for UPS. When hired as a preloader, Supervisor told me it would be about 3 - 4 yrs parttime. It took me 10 yrs and 4 months. Dont know if I would have stuck it out if I had known that, but looking back now after 19 yrs, sure glad I did. The worst part about the job is missing some of my 3 kids activities. We are in a small center (15 fulltime drivers) and our center manager is only in our building maybe a day or 2 a week, so we really have it pretty good. I am out of the norm here, but I still look forward to going to work most every day. Love pulling out of the building on those cool spring or fall mornings with a 45 min. drive to the first of my 65 - 80 stps and 240 miles ahead. I have 10 -12 small towns on my rte and most of my customers are pretty cool. The body is starting to feel it more and more, but the paycheck on Friday makes up for it. Do I aound brainwashed? Maybe I am. [/QUOTE]
