We all end up settling down sometime and raise a family. Have your fun while you are young.

If you come close I will work with you. But you have to show me you want to learn and aren't just blowing me off.
The problem that I've had is just getting people to stay. That's the worst part of the whole thing. Sometimes it's better to have someone who can just barely do the job than be short. That was peak for me. If you had a pulse and could squeeze your hand to pick up a package I would take you. I just couldn't get anybody through the freaking door.
I laugh when I hear people say they can't find a job. I always tell them go online and fill out an application and I'll have you working by the end of the week. Know how many have taken me up on it? Not a single one.
That's true of any job. My stepdad's jokes he had it all before he got married. No wife, no kids, could hunt and fish whenever he wanted. But I know he wouldn't trade all the money in the world for that back. Well, maybe for the kids part. I think we may have shortened his life expectancy a bit.
Every job has trade offs. Most people aren't making 90 grand a year and working 9-5 hours, that just doesn't happen. You want the money to support a family? UPS is good. You want to earn 35 grand and be home at 430 everyday, cool. Good luck finding a 9-5 to pay you that kind of cash without a heavy college degree or many years in a skilled trade.
Stop crying, go to work and be proud of what you do. Geez

Deplorable.
I'm not lol. I'm getting up near the halfway point in my career, I honestly don't see how I will be able to make it - and I will be exceptionally young when I'm eligible to go.

That’s Craptacular
They should do it more often...I'm getting cranky and tired in my "old age" of watching idiots half my age who can't keep up and have to be bailed out. Newbies yes...but I'm talking guys loading for 9 months or a year who constantly need help...and I'm told to help them. I'm not mommy....optimum carry, not one package at a time.

I just think they enjoy being near you.

I'm not a very pleasant person at work when I have to do more work because some kid wants to stroll around like he's at the mall. No need to run...but a little hustle and a sense of urgency would be nice.I just think they enjoy being near you.
