    I sent an application to Shneider, did I do the right thing? Says it a local night job, home every day. Says I can make up to $70,000. What do you guys think? Let me know your experiences with other companies. Thanks.

    If you retire, go home and be with your wife and enjoy life. Go to the retirement breakfasts with the other Teamsters. I don't know if you can collect the pension and still work for the competition. Fed Ex Ground may have some work, nighttime turns.

    I'm wondering why don't you just stay there? How long have you worked at UPS?

    I'd stay there at UPS for 4 more years. You'll make more with less headaches.

    I am starting to see that these company's dont wont to pay and not give you benefits. I went to a tanker company, delivering gas. They dont pay overtime, the whole day was straight time. Plus they wanted me to pay my own benefits. Now alot of ads I see say the say thing. Its crazy.
