    I'd never say it's for everyone. But for the right people, it's a great opportunity.

    If I was younger I would apply. When I first started driving it was almost impossible to get on with UPS. Al the young people on here should try to get on with them.

    They still are, in our area. But it's slowed a great deal. Basically they're taking Yellow guys right now. They can have their pick of the litter, too. I love getting experienced guys in.

    that is NOT in weekly paychecks.

    that is in benefits, pension funds, vacation pay.....

    and do not forget, the more one earns, the more taxes are taken out.
