Is working for food delivery really that physically demanding

Orlando is the food service capital of the world I think, 3 out of 4 trucks on I-4 are McLane, Sysco, or PFG it seems. I would talk to a lot of those guys when I was doing store delivery and they always seemed happy. Like @ChaoSS said, there is no reason it has to destroy your body. Stretch, lift and move weight properly, take decent care of yourself and you will be okay. Does #### happen? Yes...buy that's everywhere. You could get blood clots in your legs from sitting doing nothing all the time on a line haul or otr... -

The human body is designed to be worked. It's like any tool. Take care of it and it produces. Let it sit and things start snapping.Big8John and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
I lasted for 17 years at Sysco, wear and tear destroyed my back and joints. The loads are even more ridiculous since I had to give up foodservice work 5 years ago.I had to have a rotator cuff surgery, followed by a spinal fusion a year later. Was not able work for 3 years due to recovery time. I would go LTL or UPS since they have been hiring off the street like crazy for a few years.
Hotplate and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
