i have 2 1/2 years as a teamster.. benefits, job sucurity, and pension is just un-real..

after my 30 months is up driving.. i'll take home 75-80 grand a year. and that will just keep rising over the years.. or i could go as a shifter driver and pull 100 k a year starting.. but that can take almost 20 years :(

UPS is my friend.. and the ladies love me in my browns :-*



not to bad for a high school drop-out.

In the Pipefitters Union 597 in chicago.

I love it, the training for Commercial HVAC in our union is awesome. You wont get that ---- anywhere else, plus all the extras we get.

Starting is 20.74 and top is 40 and hour, some get paid over scale though. those #'s are whats on the check, your total package is alot more.
