[QUOTE="It will be fine, post: 1681803, member: 55017"] I don't know about other sectors, but in the package game, contractor is the way to go. If I had to summarize, if say freedom and growth potential. At Ground in about 15 years I went from package handler to president of my own company. For the last 5 years I've hardly had to deliver anything. I run some stuff during peak and rarely fill in for a real route. Had I started at brown, I would have spent years as a handler, several more years before I got to top scale and I'd be out working until 7-8pm daily. It's risky, but if Ground continues its growth, by the time I'm ready to retire my company will be worth several million dollars. The bottom could drop out, but even if it does I'll have gotten to spend a lot of time at home with my family and made a good wage while doing so. You can't get both of those if you're an employee.
