[QUOTE="The Milkman, post: 943605, member: 22760"] Yes..Seeing it from the inside paints a different picture than all those logistics happy delivery commercials.. It is a tough Job no doubt and you will have to make many sacrifices along the way and it can go from bad to worse at any moment. Your body will ache, your brain will become fuzzy with ever changing instructions and the new P/T or friend/T sup or center manager that comes into your center will again start a new cycle of insanity. If you can endure like I did and countless others you should be able to retire somewhat comfortably depending on how the pension is funded and getting involved in the 401k at a young age will help big time. Iv'e seen many divorces over the years and heard of all the missed family outings and school events missed by having a LIGHT Day which was requested well in advance, but in the long run I now look back and say to myself....It was worth all the BS I took as I retired at 55 and I am enjoying life now and wondering about the current state of affairs that current UPSER'S face.......I feel for all of you, and as you said I saw it from the INSIDE:clubbing: [/QUOTE]
