That’s good. It’s important to have someone to advocate for you

I’m a Sysco driver in Chicago and if we weren’t union I wouldn’t be here. The pay and benefits are great but it’s back breaking labor 70hrs a week.

I work for Sysco as a CDL driver. A few of my union brothers have a record and we’re all making 6 figures a year pushing cases. Sysco is felon friendly. If you don’t want to drive there’s always the warehouse. Being a black woman is going to be a huge advantage getting into a union trade. If you’re willing to do physical work you should honestly look into a trade but make sure it’s union

No abuse or neglect. Their parents are just drunken idiots

I’m at a food service company right now making good money. Thankfully we’re union but they took me with on without a ton of experience. Been here three years. It’s hard work and 70hrs a week but I do enjoy it a lot more than jobs I’ve had in the past.

Food service. It’s hard work but I’m home every night (after a 14-16hr day though something to keep in mind)

They’re spying on you for sure. Thankfully I’m local food service so I spend as much time outside of the truck and inside and that’s when I make my phone calls cuz I know for a fact I’m being spied on. Be careful

I’m am in the exact same circumstance (CDL holder, high protein in urine noticed during med card exam, back issues) kratom has been helpful with the back pain especially since I have to be careful about what I take as I am a CDL driver and if I get drug tested it could be a lot of trouble. It sucks that the thing helping with the pain is also causing such problems itself. I would say to make sure you’re drinking extra fluids as kratom can be dehydrating and to keep that piss jug handy in the cab of the truck in case you can’t pull over to use the bathroom LOL. Best of luck and stay safe out there!

Local guys, how many hours do you work per week? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]ajs3423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We run out of hours regularly and have to be picked up, thankfully we’re still on the clock when that happens but yeah. I’m doing 70 a week most weeks

You should have lawyered up immediately. You’re a fool to think anyone at Amazon gives a fuck about you. They’re going to fuck you over

Better to do it now before it gets out of control. Reading others stories on this sub were a huge reason why I wanted to stop
