[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 435944, member: 18708"] without knowing you, there is absolutely no way anyone can gauge what is best for you. only you know what is best for you. I will say, if you make good money where you are (60-70k/year), don't quit your day job. I left my day job in 2000-2002 making 60k/year, also balanced two jobs- UPS and my career - and ended up leaving the full-time one. Now I am full-time at UPS 7 years later and it was "a wash". Also, (without getting into the life story), don't be fooled about driving. It will take 3 years to make good money, plus you have to make book (FT seniority list) to even begin that 3 year wage progression. If you do make book soon, congratulations. But the wait for any type of handsome pay will not come for several years. Also I do not see how someone with 4 months can make book, unless NO ONE wants a driving job inside the building you have been working. Seniority dictates who has their shot at driving before anyone else. It's possible, but chances are you will be used as a temp cover driver and never fully get in. [/QUOTE]
