    Lol. We had to be regulated into 14 hour days.
    Before that 16/17 hour days or longer was the norm.
    And we still got drivers #####ing and moaning
    Everyday that the government hates them because
    There not allowed to drive 20 hours straight anymore.

    Pathetic. He says he can make $15/hr cutting grass...so why doesn’t he go do that? People today want stuff, which is fine, but they aren’t willing to work hard to get it...because they’re lazy. That’s why the Democrats appeal to so many people...take from those who do and give it to those who don’t. Not trying to get political but that’s just how I see it.

    Without stupid people rich people don’t exist.


    Attitudes like this is why poor get poorer. Unless you work hard you won’t make into the class above yours.

    If he signed up for 10 hour shifts and was getting 14 he had a right to quit. But he should have given 2 weeks notice or at least left his van at the yard before he quit.
    14 hour shifts will burn you out very quickly. It’s not just driving safely in the city but also carrying packages and making sure you leave them at the right address.
