Before the recession I was doing construction during the day and ups at night. Got pulled for TCD then a few years later the economy crashed. I would have lost my day and been stuck in the hub. That would have really sucked. I may not have lasted at ups if that were the case. The 6 day weeks for 8 1/2 years is almost worse in a way. The only bonus is stuff was cheap. I remember buying a new truck for cheap. Was also buying up almost new dirt bikes off craigslist for next to nothing. My buddies were all losing their stuff and I was buying it lol. So yeah. Times were good but it was tough being there 6 days a week for so long. I was among the 1st to go full time after the hiring freeze. That was the best day of my life. No more 6 day weeks and a raise straight to top rate.</p></blockquote><p></p>
