Really? I talked to a guy there he did not say anything about this union. Have to look into it even more. Thanks for making my posts in to one. I was thinking i should have done that after i did it.

Well that's why....more expensive cars have to be paid for somehow. I did my 6 hours behind the wheel of a cavalier, and had my dad not been the go-to mechanic for that driving school, I would have had to pay $300, which was one of the most expensive schools around 10 years ago.

I thought a while back you were trying to get in shape to join the marines (damn crs). If so, stay away from any food place like dunkin donuts.



My $0.02 is try to get a job where you might learn something - anything. J0n mentioned construction, that's good to learn. I don't know what you want to do when you grow up (I'm still figuring that out myself!), but the more you learn the more options you have.

UFCW United Food and Commercial Workers

A worthless union, they take and take and take and don't give **** in return. If you're not up on the seniority scale they don't give a damn about you. They also bleed the companies dry with PETTY stuff.

BTW, before the pro-union mindless sheep jump on my case I was part of that union for quite a few years so I'm speaking from experience. Maybe it's different for each local and each store but I can only speak from my experiences.

that is easier said than done when it is front of you all day. I'd think long & hard before taking a job like that. a physical job like construction might make even more sense to help you get in shape.

I talked to my friend thats in construction and he might hire me in a month or two. But i need the job Now and fast. My mom said oh its gonna be hard not to eat all that food but you get tired of it. I think i'm done with car dealerships since the hole ford thing.
