[QUOTE="trickpony1, post: 171897, member: 1957"] It depends on if you're working at a big hub that has alot of "semi" runs outbound to bid on. Since the weight limit on pkgs has been increased to 150 pounds almost every pkg driver wants into "semi" so be prepared to wait 10-15 years to get into "semi". If you are at a small center out in the "sticks", you might as well forget "semi". Regarding the poster that thinks, if you start now, you can retire at age 48.......good luck. It depends on what area of the country AND what pension plan you're under and WHAT IT WILL BE BY THE TIME YOU REACH RETIREMENT AGE. Please invest in yourself first. Get an education (degree, certification) in a job field that won't get outsourced to India anytime soon. Question: what are you gonna do when you're a 50 ish crippled up pkg driver and the company gets rid of you for some chicken**** reason? You will be out in the cold, no marketable jobs skills (besides fast food) and no one is gonna hire you. Think about it. [/QUOTE]
