He is Exactly right about what he is telling you when you're new it's gonna be hard that's why it is a high turnover rate and trucking You have it more easier now with electronics than we had back in the day when I first started only thing I had was a beeper😎
I just started working for Swift not too long ago and I recently upgraded to being a solo driver two months ago. As of right now I’m loving the process and the learning curve that I’m going through currently!
Some days I get discouraged because the pay isn’t good at all. My paychecks are usually $300-$800 a week it’s not enough to completely live off of. I know for sure in the future once I gain more experience I will have better opportunities.
Pros thisbwas awesome thank you brother
I live in NJ so I guess this stuff is normal for me lol
the fatigue only sucked during training. i felt obligated not to pull over except for our 30 minute lunch break, fuel and restrooms usage. Running out my 11 hour drive time being sleep deprived almost broke me. im never doing team driving....EVER! i didnt know i could pull over to the next reststop for a 30 minute nap and finish the last few hours of my shift easily when i went solo.
Great info. Youre totally correct. Gotta stay strong and get your miles in, they get easier and the money gets better with time.
5 pros would be great as well as how to manage family life while on the road as you mentioned. Both would be much appreciated. God bless
Blessings to you too and will do!
Yo, I think its great what your doing for young drivers.
Thank you for the comment, I definitely appreciate it
These are some pretty tough cons but I believe I can do it I have to break through this fear
I'm about to go thru it. All these people want years of experience to get local job. It's like no way to get in but going thru it. I'd appreciate the those vids u mention.
It’s a grind but it’s definitely worth it, and absolutely
Remove the bread and dairy and you prob won’t have allergies.
I want to know how to get the cash 💰 money runs!
Hey brother, I've looked and I can't find anything you wrote stating why you left Schneider tanker division. Was it the pay or something else?
Believe it or not it wasn’t the money, I’ll definitely drop a video covering that very soon. It was an issue that I had with them regarding my particular situation but I’ll definitely make a video about that
@@_GR2 ok excellent looking forward to it brother. Subbing you now ✌️
Whoooweee! I’ve been solo for going on my second week right out of CDL school! This 11/14 clock is no joke!!! I’m so exhausted today!!! Last night was my first time working until 2am. I had over 6 hours left on my 14 hour clock BUT I was exhausted so I pulled over at an empty QT (not for trucks) and slept and tossed and turned for 3 hours. I had the bright idea to “go look for a quieter safe haven and as soon as I pulled out went into violation because I had 3 hours left in sleeper berth to ride out. At the light I put myself into personal conveyance and like a zombie found a quiet place up the street. Now I have to be here for 10 hours which is up at 8pm😅. Luckily I don’t have to be in Michigan for another two days (13 hours away) but my goodness! This will NEVER happen again. I should have bit the bullet and stayed that 3 hours. A sister was just trying to sleep gooder…lol! I don’t know how this will all shake out but I have to do better with my trip planning. Thanks for a great and honest video.
Jidion with a cdl 😂😂😂
If OTR, can you bring your GF with you to ride along? Or is that not allowed/not professional?
Generally speaking, you should be able to. Every company is different and has a different rider policy but whichever company you are interested in, ask them what their rider policy is and they will let you know. Majority of the time though when you are OTR you should be good.
