Sygma job interview

they run mostly nights, lots of key stops, many routes get a helper. It does pay good.

 

I used to run into a couple of Sygma guys, and they were making WAY more than you are hoping for. One made something like $82k last year. But they certainly earn it. I wouldn't do it for too long, though. Most older former food service delivery guys have knee problems if they did it long enough. Going up and down that ramp with a heavy 2-wheeler all day takes its toll. One old co-worker of mine had to get both knees replaced and he was in his 50s. It is a young man's game for sure.

 

Some of the sygma terminals run teams, some have mostly solo driver runs.. What terminal are you applying for?

 

looks like my days a bedbugger as numbered, im headin into foodservice!

 

congrats lee!! keep us updated

 

Hard and heavy work, key drops,, maneuvering a heavy hand truck around corners in cramped kitchens, lots of night driving. Decent pay and a good bunch of co-workers. A lot of frustration with the organization right now though. They have retention issues with drivers because the work requires personal qualities of brute strength AND mental competency. Most people have either one or the other. They also have management retention issues because of all the frustration in dealing with flaky drivers.

I'm in my second week. First week on the job (two 34 hour runs with a backhaul) got me 1100$. They pay for your hotel and meals as well. Solid job for the right person.

 

Example:

 

Not sure about that particular company but everybody I've talked to who's hauled food/produce around says it's a #####. The pay is good but the companies have a lot of turnover for obvious reasons.
