    I hope you made your decision to work and get what you deserve instead of that "unlucky" number hourly wage you described.
    It sounds like the food dist. would have more potential for advancement as well.
    Look towards your future. Plus unloading and getting paid for it will keep you in shape. Overnight stay in a motel room puts any sleeper to shame.

    Usaully alot of businesses open the kitchen 5am-6am. You can do nights too which are mostly key drops. You get the key and alarm code and do your thing. Early start time you usually only get 1-2 stops with a key then the kitchens usually open up for there prep work. Oh by the way everyone wants their stuff before lunch or they get all butt hurt. Everyone thinks their first above everyone. Alot of managers treat you like your lowlife scum too even though you make 2-3 times their salary. Gotta love Foodservice!
