Well I got the second job I interviewed for above. They are matching my base pay with loomis for 90 days then moving me up.
 

I shadowed them on a few jobs last week and seemed something I’d really like. They already hired me a grunt so to speak said they hired a 18yr old kid with “a good head on his shoulders” to do all the manual lifting for me. I told them the accident was 4 years ago I’m good now just weather changes bother my hip for a bit when I wake up. They said they want to  hopefully make me and the kid a crew doing the installs and what not while the lead guy now does more sales and trouble shooting I guess. 
 

this will be my last week with loomis since I’m doing the “right” thing and gave them 2 weeks. They are going against their own company policy though with me still as an AST in one man trucks after giving notice. Once you’ve quit your not supposed to handle any money. They are so short staffed though they can’t afford to make me a driver or just on the vault crew. One guy calls in they have to cancel runs or cram tons of stops on other runs making long days which they avoid at all costs not wanting to pay OT. 
 

counting down days to start this new career path. Thursday will be last day at loomis and we don’t work on Columbus Day so short week for me. 

 

You're a survivor, you'll be fine.
