What parts of the country do they live/drive in?
How many years with the company?
What kind of hours per work week are they putting in?
And I believe an employee of Fed ex is also chimed in this thread
dats true. 14hrs a day, 5 days a week will pull u in that kinda dough, but trust me, u can forget about any sort of a social life (which is why I'm a comic nerd)(No time for chicks)
What good is money without time?
I tell myself that on a daily basis, but trust me, it aint easy to walk away from albeit its tempting at times. The divorce rate is also pretty high as you'd imagine.
Both my spouse and I work in film ... up that to 6, sometimes 7 days a week and that's our average work week. The same can be said about that career. However, the people whom I've met that successfully managed to keep their relationships alive tend to be ones who date / marry within that field because they get it. Your average 'normal' working person just doesn't understand why you have to work those hours.
Porno?
haha...no, we definitely wouldn't have to work those hours if we worked in porn.
