Pretty sure it's SYSCO

Well I work for Sysco canada out of Toronto. I'v started there April 14th and it's VERY hard work. My day starts at 4am with a 30min ride to work. I'm in training mode right now and it's been crazy. I started today at 4am and I'm writing to u in bed ready to fall a sleep. Oh did I tell you that I JUST GOT HOME!! Canada is a great companie they will stand by you for training as long as it takes. The down side, the frown on u taking time off work sick,golf what ever. I'm 27 years old was 201 pounds and in one week droped to 188 trust me you need to be in shape or you will be lol. Pay up here, well mine is $800 to $900 a week take home but you must meet there dead lines for the deliverys. Your looking at 700 to 1000 pieces all hand bomb and at the end of the day your doing about 15,000 to 22,000LBS!! buy yourself. NO KIDDING!! Oh I'm also running 4 days a week only or you would run out of hours. It's fast pase VERY HARD WORK but the pay shows every ake and pain you get. I can see me doing this for a long time but I will stick it out. They also have a pension plan union Excellent coverage and home every night and I mean night lol. Hope this helps. Cheers!!

 

I drive for a company that does the same thing Sysco does. I also have a very good friend that has driven for them out of Chicago for over twenty years. I think because he had the reccomendation letter and because ther was a recent opening, that is why he got the call. You do have turnover in this particular segment of the trucking industry due to the demands of time,having to fingerprint every load ( you handle all 600-800 pieces on your trailer). IT IS NOT FOR EVERYONE. The money is excellent, even to start with my company it is around 56,000 per year. Sysco in some locations may be more. My friend probably brings in around 65,000 per year. Your husband probably knows all this. My only concern at 47 is how long can you last doing this physical work. I went from a 42 waist back down to a 40. Also feel better (except for some minor lower back and knee pain) then I ever have. I think it is worth trying out.
Good Luck, hope it all works out.
