    Never did beverage, but when i was in Food Service they ALWAYS looked extremely miserable. Coke, Pepsi, and beer. I’m sure that isn’t the case for everyone though. I highly suggest every new cdl driver to start off with food service simply for the great pay, day one benefits, and for the HUMBLENESS! Man will food service humble you.. lol.

    I pulled trash and now pull mail for a living. I'm a rookie driver with two years of experience. Backing up on a 20 degree inclined tipper in a landfill in pouring rain was a great learning experience. I currently pull mail from Richmond, VA to Dulles distribution center-Capital Heights,MD distribution center, back to Richmond, VA. I travel up and down I-95, I-295, I-495, I-66, and Route 28 every evening. Getting experience with dealing with dense traffic, while operating a 10-speed straight manual gearbox is fun. Plus, my route involves NO TOUCH FREIGHT! New drivers should look into polling mail for a private contractor.

And we’re mostly commission based so the faster you deliver your beer the more money an hour you make yourself. We also don’t merchandise anything at my company as drivers.

Supervisor was constantly on my ass over the pettiest of shit. Company had the worst routing system I’ve ever seen. Drivers would literally HAVE TO route themselves and would essentially document how they did the route and would report back to the router to adjust…. Yes, I’m serious lol….
    Besides that… rotating product AND merching accounts PLUS dealing with barrels… yeah, I did ONE month after I got my CDL and said FUCK THIS!
    I quit a couple weeks ago. Going back to food and joining US Foods in a week. Can’t wait to NOT merch accounts or rotate product! Or fuck with barrels and trap doors! FUCK beer!!

So if someone took a day or had vaca time, they’d just throw someone on that route, with the TERRIBLE routing system, and you’d have to basically do THEIR work too because there were always empties to pickup….
      Yeah, we did Sprecher and New Glarus. Barrels were 180lbs each! Up and down stairs… the fucking hand truck would barely move with 2 barrels on it(close to 400lbs) but we were expected to do it if we were gonna get done at a decent time…
      One of the routes I got assigned to after a guy quit was a rural area driving ALL OVER the place and that route generally had 350-400 cases all put away plus 40-60+ barrels. Smh fucking terrible!
      I’ll always be grateful I got my CDL there(although it was mostly self-training) but I wasn’t going to put up with that shit for the pay. My checks had to have 100+ hours to clear $2,000 every two weeks…

    I went OTR for a month and wanted my life back. Now I'm being trained to be a relief driver (eventually get my own route if I stick around) with a beer delivery company. Yeah, this is probably the hardest work I've ever done. But my experience is different than yours 2 months in.
    Firstly we don't price.
    Secondly the drivers get paid a flat daily rate + x cents per case/keg. So they wanna be flying thru the day. And the dudes that are really good typically end up working 7-12 hour days. I'm sure them hours can increase in the summer depending on case counts.
    Lastly, idk if you had this, but 3 day weekends are so fucking nice. Can't stress that enough.
    I honestly love this job I just wish it paid more. I'm only making $19/hr rn but even as a driver I'm sure I'd only pull 3400-4k a month depending on the route I get. But the exercise is so good for me and I'm markedly stronger probably than I've ever been after just 2 months of throwing these cases, downstacking pallets, scooping and dropping stacks, and lifting them kegs. Fuckers weigh as much as I do lol.
    That being said I'm still only staying till I can get a regional trucking job that'll pay more. I miss being on the road I just don't miss counting the days till I'm home.

      Exactly. I pulled trash and now pull mail for a living. I'm a rookie driver with two years of experience. Backing up on a 20 degree inclined tipper in a landfill in pouring rain was a great learning experience. I currently pull mail from Richmond, VA to Dulles distribution center-Capital Heights,MD distribution center, back to Richmond, VA. I travel up and down I-95, I-295, I-495, I-66, and Route 28 every evening. Getting experience with dealing with dense traffic, while operating a 10-speed straight manual gearbox is fun. Plus, my route involves NO TOUCH FREIGHT!

From cases to kegs, up n down stairs, & the pay here in Washington D.C it wasn’t worth it, but i am forever grateful for the opportunity they gave me to do so without any CDL experience, I learned so much there. & I actually had Pepsi on my line at the same time as the beer company & I ended up choosing the beer company.

The physical activity is a nice challenge doing 12 to 13 stops delivering up to 1400 cases in a 14 hour window. The 4 day (non consecutive) work week and the opportunity to gross $70-100k was a deciding factor to come here.
