[QUOTE="Thead Shi, post: 4538302, member: 72694"] I have this discussion quite a bit with co workers and we all come to the same conclusion, hours and management aside where else can you find a job that pays 40 dollars an hour with a pension and free health care right out of high school? I almost quit to go back to my old job which was 50k a year at 30 hours 4 days a week but when they offered it I just couldn't accept it. Since then my girlfriend of many years left me and since I don't have kids my limited time is my own and it's great. This job is only gonna get more demanding as time goes on but luckily with every new hire theres that much more of a chance you get the morning phone call. Its a tough gig that has perks most people envy and call us 'lucky' but they do not understand the sacrifice. My advice is to try to not drink on weekdays and if you can get yourself in great shape by working out or exercising it makes the day that much easier when your not exerting yourself all day. We're all a little unlucky atm with covid deliveries but we all also remember those good days when we are driving down the road thinking we're lucky to have such an easy job for the money! [/QUOTE]
