I just started at dc 6064 in Texas in Meat and Produce about 3 weeks ago. I've only been on the floor 2 weeks. I'm 27 and I'm already pulling over 80% pretty easily. It does require quite a bit of heavy lifting but once you get technique down it's not too bad. You just can't waste time doing things. Most importantly stay hydrated and get plenty of sleep so you're muscles can recover faster.

So I’m also a temp going for 2 weeks now and already I hate the job. Not only is it overbearing and constant, but the people there only care for production rate. I’m supposed to be in EDC since that was what I applied for. Haven’t been there ONCE since being taken in. Management there feels like you got people who just want to place you in spots other don’t want. Since this is my first job ever, my family thinks that I’m just being unappreciative, but they’ve got no clue since none of them have ever worked like I have. The only reason they want me to stay is because my job pays more then theirs but that’s not worth the injuries and stress. I’m easily stressed by overbearing work like loading up multiple trailers at once. So screw this, better to just quit Sorry for ranting but this is just how I feel

I applied for one of these jobs today and it's highly likely they are gonna call me for work. I have a few questions if you got the time to answer them that would be greatly appreciated. 1. I have never operated a Forklift before and so I'm not certified. Do they train you or is there other work in the warehouse that doesn't require the use of a forklift??? 2. Are you pretty much working by yourself??? Of course if I'm not on a lift you may not be able to answer that one. The application process doesn't really say and it didn't ask if I can. The pay seemed pretty good and steady, is there opportunities to grab more hours or extra shifts??? How bad is the work, some warehouses will wear you out every single day so Im trying to avoid those unless the pay is enough that I don't need a second job. Of course you may not be able to answer that one either. I need as much money as I can make and may need a second job just to make ends meet and not totally deplete my bank account every month. Thanks again if you can answer anything👍👍
