My friend has that route now and the other day between them two he has 21packages lol

I'm a full time student for 6 more days, and after the new year i'm going to be sitting in an office making buildings. Not really homebuilding, it's mostly residential stuff yes, but not single family homes. And, some walmarts/warehouses in general here and there, too.

On the side I trade a little bit to make beer money; have a few projects I'm working on scaling to build a business out of them. Waiting to move out of college and have a garage/workbench space to start making stuff so I can sell them.

I've enjoyed a railroad career of almost 47 years and retirement is coming at years end. While bittersweet, as a third generation railroader I've been blessed. It all started 65 years ago, sitting on my Dads lap at a tower, 'RB' , he worked outside of Buffalo .....

When I was driving for UPS, desktop PCs were just catching on for businesses. The CPUs came in one big box and the CRT monitors came in another. I had 4 stops on my route that did PC configuring work for clients. Most of the time it was one CPU and one monitor. But every now and then one of the 4 would get a large order of 10 or 12 CPUs and matching monitors. Those would fill the center aisle of my truck and keep me from getting to other packages, so I'd have to drive to the specific client first thing, regardless of where they were on my normal route, just to offload all the computer stuff. I hated those days. It always set me back at least an hour before I could start my normal route.

Yea that’s Normal nowadays. You basically do a “bulky” trace so the rest of your day is easier. We do business Firstof course but sometimes people will order furniture or pottery barn boxes that are huge so after doing my air I break off and run those then come back.
