I have to agree with you that driving those tug tractors are fun. Years ago I use to work at MIA (Miami International Airport, Miami, Florida) and I loved getting the job to either do bag transfers (inbound to outbound) to dropping local bags at the baggage claims. A lot more space that being in the cargo hold of passenger planes loading or unloading flights. Plus, it was hard for me to keep up with the guys that are normally in the plane's cargo holds stacking bags there because they are so much stronger and have a lot more upper body muscles than me. I also did ticketing while I worked at the airport there. I didn't like that as much because of rude ass passengers and always being asked over and over the same questions that people could answer themselves if they would open their eyes and read signs. It is a lot easier dealing with baggage because they are always polite and it was always nice to see pets being sent in the cargo holds. I would have kept my airline job for longer but it doesn't pay nearly as much as I make now operating bulldozers and a part time job at the local hospital as a LPN.

@@lastyrover6387 Is not hard to apply but it also depends on which airport you are applying to and the companies that do that job. Large size airports tend to have more companies hiring, as the demand is greater. The jobs is physically demanding for sure as you have to stack 50 lbs bags while bent on your knees inside the airplane. But you do get breaks between the flights at times so you can rest. It is a very rewarding job and great experience for sure! I would recommended the job to anyone, specially if you have interest in the aviation industry. But if you're back isn't good or health then might not be the right fit. Hope this helps!

@@lastyrover6387 I found it a bit stressful at the beginning but as time went by and I became a lot comfortable with the job then it wasn't as stressful. Maybe consulting with a health professional might be helpful before you apply for the job. Also you could probably find more information online about what ramp agents do or even watch some KZbin videos and get a better idea and go from there. It doesn't hurt to try and if it wasn't for you then that's okay too in my opinion. Also they have leads on site, and like supervisors that you could always ask if you don't know what you're doing. Normally they're going to make you do what you're trained for or know how to do. Sorry, that's the best I could do. Wish you well!

They do, but once you get out on the ramp in person it starts to make sense more too. Give yourself time, and remember to just to remain slow/safe. It’ll all come to you after 2-3 months out there. Congrats !! 😄🤙

When it comes to handling cargo they may have fragile & hazardous products which you have to pay very close attentoon to.

Got a story for you. My first day with a airline back 2001 was a disaster. The pilot gave me a trash bag to walk around the plane and the captain said I need a air sample 🤪 which I did and the trash bag got sucked up into the a.c vent 😂 delayed flight 5 hrs to scrape the bag off the a.c vent 😂

Worked at PDX on the UPS side during peak and omg walking in the planes was the biggest tripping hazard. And it's also as if the engineers were asked what type of locks and just said yes. 757 are a bit skinnier than the 767 too, that's how I would see the difference
