Pros
great pay. great benefits. no experience necessary, they train you, then give you a useful trade, and a license to use the forklift. pays more than any of my other jobs. plus after the months and then every 6 months for the first 2 years, you get a pay increase. you go from 16.45 to 19.50 after 2 and a half years. i was willing to do any job just to get my foot in the door. but luckily i got one of the easier ones here. they do have jobs here in this warehouse that lifts and loads boxes andshipments by hand ALLL day. but as an unloader processor on the sams side, im not rerquired to lift anything by hand. I do all the lifting with the forklift! I love it. They also teach you how to use the forklift for the first time. They train you for 8 weeks. And you have weeks during training to mess up without the fear of getting in trouble. Everybody is very friendly and supportive. you dont have to deal with customers!! thats one of the best parts! I came from a call center, so all day i had to listen to complaining customers and I had to kiss butt. here i have my forklift, im left alone, i do my job. i dont really have to deal with people. i dont have to sell anything. i just take that forklift, lift things out the truck, set it down in the building then go back in until i get the rest. i do that all day. very easy. I get paid good money for this! If youre lucky enough to get a call back, definitely take it and be grateful. so many would do anything to get their foot in the door.
