[QUOTE="ORLY!?!, post: 981212, member: 16334"] Oh yeah, you're going to get sore / hurt at this job. I recall my first year, shoulders started to hurt. It almost felt as if they were falling off type of feeling, if anyones felt that way before. Many years I lifted weights for a living, training for semi-pro hockey. This job has blown that type of activity away. And hence fourth back, knees, arms and every inch of me hurts in some sort or fashion, each and every day. Pain pills help, ALOT! Glucosamine goes the extra hundred miles at making you feel loose and smooth. Remember to keep your movements minimal. Pain really is an illusion. In extreme cases broken bones, major illness or sharp pains to the stomach pain is good. It lets you know theres something wrong. You're talking about a pain you can push past with repeated attempts and stamina/ endurance growth. It will take time and many attempts. If you must, remind yourself now and again to just push on and the pain will go away eventually. If your concerned now about pain this job might not be for you. I sure most of these guys and gals here will tell you a thing or two about pains here. I have come across a lot of people, non-insiders, that claim a friend of a friend or they dont work for UPS anymore. Almost all I've heard dealt with pain or getting hurt. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
