[QUOTE="Chaos, post: 3952785, member: 72965"] Name another company you would want to drive for? The job is fine. It’s good. It’s whatever you put into it and take from it. I leave work at work and don’t bring it home with me. Great days, good days, bad days, and those rare occasions I question why the :censored: I decided to make this my career. A lot of these folks don’t know anything different. Coming from :censored: jobs to UPS for an opportunity to have a real career. I look at all my friends that have retired from this company and they are set. Put in all that hard back breaking body destroying work but ultimately have great retirement. Complaining is a coping mechanism it’s relatability to everyone around you. A little empathy from others can help soothe the mind before the aggravations of the job. But once you have found what methods work best for you it works out. The job becomes stressful with all the politics. I have been driving for over a decade now and of all the companies I’ve worked for the only one to offer me an opportunity to a real future is big brown, but let’s not be delusional that opportunity comes with a huge price. When you’re starting out your willingness to pay that price is much higher than let’s say 5 - retirement. Really you need to consider the wear and tear on your body. The wear and tear on your mind. Can you handle a fast paced environment all the time and be efficient. Your tolerance for bull:censored: because there is a lot of it. Being the scapegoat for when your day doesn’t go smooth. But most of all knowing you’re going to be doing the same exact thing for the rest of your working life and your free time will be limited...I cannot stress this part enough. Also. I love my job.
