    Yes, that is good. Don't see tanker drivers on here complaining about $200.00 paychecks.

    Company is one of the very few corporate terminals owned by QC. I guess some how it just so happens to be Teamsters Local 294 as well.

    Vested with a pension at five years. @ $650 but can't touch till 65. Assuming you stay longer as I've heard 20+ years is 3,000$ per month but idk if that's 100% true. It did come out of my shop stewards mouth tho so I'm leaning to believe it. Everything I've been told has been truth. Second bonus @ 30 days is coming in so I don't want to Jynx it lol

    That's a sweet deal anywhere.
    Mind your P's and Q's, and you should have a good gig for a long time.

    Thats a great deal with the pension, especially. I was anti union for along time, especially after working for UPS. But my current company is changing my opinion.
