[QUOTE="helenofcalifornia, post: 114313, member: 5170"] Well said, Toonertoo!! Most of us waited to drive - I waited 8 years. We all knew it wasn't an easy job, but being a preloader all those years and getting up early isn't easy either. Yeah, we are well paid. Though I dare say that money goes a whole helluva lot further in the heartland rather than on either coast. EVERYONE should get a decent living wage and life should not be a constant struggle, but it is. My knees and shoulder are shot and I doubt that I will make it to retirement age working at UPS . But I still like my job and get a great sense of accomplishment out of it every day even though I am just another well-paid blue collar worker. I would rather be out in a truck talking to my customers than sitting at a desk pushing paper. [/QUOTE]
