[QUOTE="JL 0513, post: 2848762, member: 50088"] Bottom line is, no one is going to recommend this job to a 40 year old to start. It's really made to start younger. Most drivers retire by their late 50's. Have to look at it as a long term investment to be worth it because it takes years just to gain enough seniority to run better routes, vacation time/picks, etc. If all you had was a crappy job, then that would be different because you had nothing to lose. I doubt the railroad would let you leave for a month to try this. So you think expenses are killing you in Texas?? While expenses /real estate have gone way up in recent years because everyone is moving there, it's still no where near northeastern and coastal state living expenses. [/QUOTE]
