2020 - E-Learning - Day 31

8:16 a.m. - My check from FedEx Ground was $300, which included a Sunday shift.  My heart hurts for the folks who work there that work that job and other part-time jobs to try to make all their "ends" meet.  OR even worse, folks who somehow try to live on just that part-time job.  I know I'm much older than many of the package handlers there, but my body hurts after every shift I finish - HURTS.  To think that all of that physical strain and pain pays $300 a week is even more painful on my brain.  I have a renewed message for students considering their post-secondary training paths.
