    Work smarter, not harder. ;)

    Besides, depending on the size of the driver, that may call for one hell of a strong ladder.

    Pepsi for the benefits. Only because it's a union outfit. Pepsi sucks in my area. Sounds like a great opportunity in your area.

    I travel 3.5 hours to get to my terminal. It suks and I only have to make that round trip once a week, thank gawd. 2 hours of driving PLUS your full work day...I wouldn't have the stones, but I'm old.

    The same 300lb guy that has been running dry van for 2yrs, but claims to have 15yrs of "heavy haul" experience. He just got tired of that kind of work, lol.

    Guess you've never hauled glass.

    Your purpose is incredibly suspect other than to troll for likes.

    I would love to see a driver balance a 100 pound tarp on a ladder. That sounds like a circus act

    Is the pepsi supply line or merchandising? I was in talks with pepsi a few months ago @50cpm and I think 25 or 30 per stop and picking up and dropping off the truck counted as stops.(this was supply line warehouses and factories only) On the other hand no matter how long you've been there that is the pay it does not increase. That was the case in my area anyways
