I’ve been a full line driver stocking vending machines for Pepsi for about 6 months now. I’ve thought about making a long, drawn out post on here ranting and venting about all the problems I’ve had with it, but I’m just so tired. Don’t even know what to say. I don’t exactly regret doing it because it allowed me to afford my own place better than my old job at a gas station, but I leave at like 5:00 AM don’t even get back until 6:00-9:30 PM at the latest because of the commission pay structure. There’s no cap on the hours, for those of you not familiar. The pay is peanuts for the hours, not to mention it’s manual labor. I struggle with depression and I’m not exactly suicidal right now but I just want to have a life of my own. I can’t plan anything because I never know when I’ll be home. I just want to do something else, and I’d go to school, but like most of us here I got bills to pay. Sick of the bullshit, man, sick of it. When I get back from the route got to spend like two hours doing the soda order for the next day, paperwork, counting the money, etc. Not to mention anything else extra that may come up like washing the truck or emptying out a machine that was picked up. I always see people on here like “Oh, you’re complaining about working 60 hours? Well, at least you’re not a hunter gatherer living in the woods” Just stop it. I don’t want to hear it. When is enough enough for you people? Don’t even say you knew what you signed up for. I had this exact concern when I first got hired, and they said don’t worry it won’t be anything crazy like 60 hours. Well here we are. It sucks because I actually do like the work and have good relationships with my customer accounts but I can’t physically or mentally keep doing this. And all these people act like it’s normal like they have a work fetish or something.
