Hahaha no offense idgaf. Some of the older guys definitely got fat sitting on some of those machines all day, but us young guys walk about 10 miles a day carrying 20-50 pounds worth of crap, it’s one of the most physically demanding jobs you could ever do. Every thing in the union is about seniority, so you have to earn you beer belly here. The older you get the less work the company gives you and the more comfortable type of job you get. But before you even get in the union, you need to dam near pass out from exhaustion, because your competing on a trial basis with hundreds of other non union men for the spot, so you need to literally work faster and longer doing every drop of over time, than hundreds of other men just to get in, than it’s easy street. I do it for the health benefits, dental, steady income (it’s near impossible to get fired), Middle class pay (most dudes didn’t finish high school and make over 100k with the overtime) they don’t make jobs like this anymore so I got really lucky. I earned it, but I got lucky too.
