You Gotta know when to cut your losses. If you do make that much at a car dealer why would u come back to ups to potentially drive one day? The lack of family time and hard work imho would not he worth it if I could make 65-80k at a dealer health insurance or not. Don't count on the pension being there and don't count on being able to make 30 years full time to get the full pension.
FYI right now your a peak worker, just like little 18 year old Timmy who is high as a kite unloading the truck next to u and is just working through peak for weed and beer money. From my experience the Timmy types usually end up getting serious after 4/5 years and end up embracing their driving career after years of working happily part time and not worrying about getting tested.
I have a hard time believing how much u make, I have friends who sold for fields bmw, Benz of south Orlando, and others who went to auctions as designated buyers for high end dealerships... They would have good and bad months but usually not even close to 80k a year. I'm very educated in the car game and all sides of it, from sales to being your own dealer flipping cars, to co part salvage auctions to building race cars from the ground up.
The guys I know who were into sales... They now have moved on to selling mortgages and insurance for high end company's and still have trouble touching the 80k range being in the high percentile of sellers.
Why do you guys say you see people like me every peak?? I'm not a peak worker.. This isn't my 1st rodeo.. As long as I'm able to maintain both jobs the way it is now I can ride this out for 1-20 years.. However long it takes lol.. Like I said, I'm not working here for the money.. I already make over 80k barley working.. But by the time you take out all the medical, dental, vision insurance, it's as if I'm making 65k.. And then there's no pension or real retirement with car dealerships in 30 years... I'd much rather put the time in ups and gain all that on the back side.
Why?Dude just stop, for the love of God just stop
You'll be closer to 45-50 years oldwhen you do go FT and then 4 years progression to make full rate. Plus 30/35 years for a full time pension in the southern supplement.Why do you guys say you see people like me every peak?? I'm not a peak worker.. This isn't my 1st rodeo..

My uncle was a Service manager at a Benz dealer in a very high end part of ny.... He did very well but after many many years as a tech, trips to get training in Germany, and being loyal.There's a Mercedes dealership on my route and the parts guy laughed today when I asked them if they make 80k at big time dealerships.
He said "yeah but not in parts".
Your points in your post are dead on.
Dude just stop, for the love of God just stop

This makes no sense.. I see plenty of mid 20s year old ft drivers walking out during twilight.You'll be closer to 45-50 years oldwhen you do go FT and then 4 years progression to make full rate. Plus 30/35 years for a full time pension in the southern supplement.
You'll be crippled or dead from the stress of ups.
I'd stay at your 80k dealership job. But I'm betting it's more like 35-40k otherwise you wouldn't have such a hard on to drive so fast.
