[QUOTE="Cementups, post: 2323031, member: 8590"] I'm in the minority it seems in my center. I've been here 23 years and I really like my job. One guy was complaining about stress one day. I said, "What stress?!?" And he was like, from here!!! I said "Dude, any stress you have here, you bring on yourself. Your job is simple. You deliver packages, you pickup pages, you go home. It really is that easy. Compared to having a 'real job' and have to worry about meetings and reports and other BS. Or to even being a cop like my brother where he is a cop 24 hours a day. That's stress." He sat there dumbfounded for a minute and says, "i never really thought about it like that." Even now I have a route and have a good dispatcher and customers that help me on days I need help. I rarely work more than 42-43 hours/week and I am able to coach my daughters 12u softball team. After spring softball I think I'm going to make the transition to feeders and see how the other half lives. Yes, I will have to work a lot more hours but I certainly won't have to work harder. Quite the opposite. [/QUOTE]
