food service trucking jobs. need experience or fresh out of cdl school?

I`m 51 yrs young working for Budweiser am I too old to think of doing foodservice work?

 

Same stuff different product. More running and stacking at the food service. But you get to drop product instead of working them to the shelf. How long you been working for Budweiser? Isn't it union and routes go by hired date? So the longer you been worker than the easier the routes are and easy money right?

 

Been working here 5 years, non-union.
We are paid $750wk whether we work 30hrs or 60 hrs. Some days we might have 400cs some days we may have 1200cs,depending on the season.

 

If you've been slinging cases of beer for 5 years , then you'll have no problems in food service. I retired in 2011 at age 62...did the food service thing for over 3 decades. retired cause they moved the facility from 45 minutes away to over 2 hours away...besides after all that time I was ready to start enjoying the fruits of my labor. You'll have no problems with the "work" ...where are you located , might be able to give you a direction to go in , or a couple of places to check-out.

 

You say that, but after being told that 50 different times it gets a little frustrating.

 

I live in Cullman,Al. 50 miles south of Huntsville and 50 miles north of B`ham,Al.

 

Depends on how bad they need drivers or not usually they want a year or 2 of experience but if needing drivers now will hire with less experience. Exit310 u should be able to handle it I'm sure it's similar work

 

Ok things are looking up, I had a sit down interview with Sysco on Thursday and a road test on Friday( I passed my road test), they said all there hiring is done at the corporate office in Houston,TX. So maybe I hear from them soon.
