    PFG?

    Like the other food service carriers -- before long, you will have no backside -- because you will work it off. o_O

    LoL!! I'm not surprised, I feel like by the time I graduate my FREAKING school most of these jobs will be taking already including this one https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?from=appsharedroid&jk=5fa7d983ed76b416, saw it yesterday when I was browsing Indeed, $19 is ok for training but I wonder what's their pay when drivers get their routes.

    I don't know, except it's beer delivery. Up until recently you didn't even need a cdl because they would help you acquire it.

    Personally, I wouldn't like the job because I prefer the solitude of OTR and night driving. But, this isn't about me....lol
