im a courier for quest diagnostics, i started there almost a month ago. just part time for now until they offer me a full time route. still slangin pies at night! hoping i can get a 30 hr a week route (which is full time there) get all the benefits, and build my schedule at ub around my work schedule (the quest lab is 2 minutes away from ub north) but this will be a few years into the future, im super happy there, and i still love slangin pies for the time being
yeah i meant to put it there, been with her for 8 yrs now with 2 kids (5yrs, 21 months) so i think she deserves a nice wedding for putting up with me and heavy spending on my cars/ bikes/ jeeps LOL
Yah but when I look back at it I have nothing lol. So it was alot of fun at the time and would do it again, just wish some of that money when towards my schooling haha
