My cousin is a ups driver, he likes it

Do you think he could put in a good word for me?

Maybe. I think an elite goEMAW.com poster may give a better recommendation tho.

i've thought about becoming a trucker.  i think i'd like it, but i also think there'd be too much risk of dying.  mostly i just think of quitting and not doing anything else (for money).

Thought very very seriously about this when I was looking to change jobs last year

I thought about this a long time ago, but then I decided I didn't want my kids to not have me at home most nights. Plus, I don't think it pays that well.

My home office setup is already pretty elite but I bought this desk today.  The one I already had was nice but I wanted something a little bigger, especially with my 3 big ass monitors I bought last year.  It's in a billion pieces all over the floor right now but excited to get it put together.  My current desk will slide over and be more of a miscellaneous electronics work station.

I was born in the late 80's  :cyclist: so I am completely ok with this.

Also, the main reason I liked this desk is the wedge so it's not a 90o angle in the middle of the L-Shaped desk.  Using 3 monitors makes it hard to find an L-Shaped desk that has enough room and is wide enough so you can not have your keyboard and mouse on an underneath tray.  It's truly a first world problem I have so many monitors but I don't want to be 3 inches from my monitors.
