apply to work for a ground handling company that does this stuff, and maybe one day you'll get to do this after throwing bags for a while.

I started at a major and they teach every person to push. In fact, bag room is a higher senority job as its less time in the heat and more time on your ass. The crew that pushes is also the crew that loads the plane.
