I loved the UPS job..sit there, throw some boxes around w/ no one b1tchin at you...I got in really good shape. there were times I'd mow lawns for 6 hours, go throw boxes for 4 hours, then go and lift weights for an hour and a half. I was never in better shape in my life. One of the only times I got rid of the layer of fat over my bottom abs. That and throwing boxes from the top of trucks onto conveyor belts is kinda fun. I remember we had directv boxes and I stopped the warehouse becuase I overloaded the people loading packages onto trucks. The warehouse was stopped for 35 minutes and everyone got to go watch the avs game. I remember seeing how many directv boxes I could load on the belt at once, and at one point I had 27 on there at once. Again, they had to stop my belt and the guys loadin the trucks came over and b1tched cuase they couldnt' keep up. One of the better jobs I've had. Good hours, good work, nice people. I met tons of people from all walks of life. I also built some hella endurance in my biceps too.
Oh yeah, and for people that say you'll be too tired...its not that bad. I was never too tired to go out after work until 2-3am in the morning. I always had enough in me to lift after work.
Bad things:
you get these stains on your shirts from boxes. For some reason my fingers would be a little numb the first couple weeks I worked there, then I got used to it. Like, on the weekends when I was off my fingers would be a little stiff...can't really explain it..just weird. This feeling didnt' really go away until I took a week off for a vacation. Not enough hours...I worked like 4 hours a night if I was lucky. I think we finished way too fast.
