Food Service is very fast paced; you have to be self motivated and able to push through a lot of frustration. I work for Sysco and find the work very satisfying, but exhausting. Best lesson I was taught; learn you boxes.
double_r and localguy65 Thank this. -
Don’t get too excited on shuttle positions. They typically takes a very long time to get into especially if your in a union barn. If that’s the case, you may never see a shuttle gig open up. Obviously there are exceptions...

We have 2-3 guys who just started at are yard who came over from Lipari.double_r Thanks this. -
Sysco will have new guys do transit stuff from time to time however that’s not the case at most places most places are like GFS and US foods where generally shuttle is done by senior guys or guys who have covered a lot of runs and routes throughout the system and have some experience under there belt. Because you need to know what your doing because it’s more then out and back depending on the length from the lot to the warehouse.
It’s usually out go to wearhouse go to somewhere else and then head back. Depends on the hall too. -

We have a lot of senior guys at GFS on shuttles although shuttle does pay a little bit less then delivery. Although you can make money, just depends how much hard work you want to do.Last edited: May 2, 2019
