At 28 years driving and making well over 100k a year I still figure out my daily or per load money. Right now I am running dedicated and home weekly but I still keep track of every load and the total pay on my notebook. Just makes good bookkeeping habits.
Like I said nothing wrong with that just a matter of what the motive is.
I love podcast! Thanks for the shoutout!
I remember trying to explain to people what a podcast was like 10 years before anybody knew what they were. I had my doubts for a long time that podcast would ever take off and be a thing.
Thank you for this valuable information sir!
Most welcome!
I like that..I do the same while I was driving for FedEx and Associated Food Stores.
Wow what a awesome video good job thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
John Graser at Drive 4 Walmart and Philip Delk at Right Lane Trucking are good channels also.I have listened to the guys you have mentioned and they are good sources of info.Walmart may be the best trucking job out their.It can be hard to no.Because you don’t no what drivers are comparing there Walmart experience to.I left a great company once for a company that everyone there said it was like eating steak.What they had was good but it was hotdogs they just didn’t no any betterI may have higher or unrealistic standards but It is because of my experience with 2 great companies I have worked at.I have heard some good things about Walmart.Thanks for sharing.
I came from a food grade tanker trucking company and they treated me great. I had a brand new truck a couple of times and was treated with a lot of respect but unfortunately I don't think I ever made over 38,000 a year working there. Not to mention having time off was pretty rare. The vice president of that company told me they couldn't compete with the Walmart DC down the road. That's when a light bulb went off inside my head.
I was at Red Bluff last week. I start in Grandview October 10th.
When the snow flys we'll all be in McCarran NV lol
Great video, gave me a lot peaceful information when it comes to how Walmart pays
I'm sure it's a lot to take in for new people but all that really matters is I get the right amount all total over the entire year.
Hi my friend. I’m currently working for jbhunt and got a few years under my belt. I’m from Michigan and recently applied for the driver opportunity in coldwater mi. It’s going on week 2 and haven’t seen much action. I’m just wondering if it would be better to just go the referral route. Thanks for the video update. I did subscribe and I will continue to follow. Thanks
I've been told that if you put a referral name in people are getting phone calls within a week instead of a month or more. If you want to give it a try use my name Donald Smith DC 6826 Red Bluff California employee number 14609. Let me know if that makes a difference thanks for watching
Hello, i just gotna question for you buddy. I got a phone call from jbjunt. I am a new driver! Do they pay by miles or by hourly work? I have not applied for the job yet. Any advice. Thank, I appreciate your help.
If you’re asking about Walmart pay it’s by the mile and the hour and by activity so it’s a little hard to explain.
what books or videos do you recommend for apparel printing?
I recommend screenprinting.com on there TH-cam channel they have a lot of tutorials on how to do things. Equipment zone is another good one. I'm sure if you look at a couple of those TH-cam will suggest a bunch of good ones.
The fact that WM taxes their own bonuses 40% will not motivate anyone... the federal flat rate is 22%
I agree but it's such a small part it really doesn't matter. Most companies you wouldn't even get a bonus anyway.
I will love to apply for it ,but I don’t see any regional available here in Florida 😢 I have 10 years experience clean records
I think Florida might be hard to get into but you just got to keep an eye on the listings and wait for something to come up. Good luck let me know if anything comes up.
@@20plustrucking Sure, I'll start looking, and when I find something, I'll mention you as a reference. Thanks for the information. I hope I get it. I want the best for myself and my family. I'm tired of working for companies that just drain everything out of you.
@@Manuel-Alejandro3189 I do appreciate that thank you. Yes if you can get on with Walmart you will definitely be doing good for your family. As far as companies draining you it will definitely be better if you can get away from that I know because I've been there. If you have any questions along the way you're welcome to email me whenever at don@20plustrucking.com Good luck and keep me up to date.
Is it none touch
Or do you have to unload and load yourself
All no touch freight
Fabolous
Lol it is fabulous
iam guessing you dont slip seat? iam guessing you dont have to ask the shop 4 or 5 times to fix the same old thing. iam guessing they dont ask you to wax the floor in you're pos freightliner any of this ring a bell? when was the last time you ran in 50 mile an hour wind or chained up on vail pass? get real!
Nope Don't have to do any of that except I do chain up
Do Walmart pays transportation to get to the dc?
What do you mean? You mean pays you to drive to work if you live a long ways away?
@@20plustrucking for orientation week do they pay for transportation like bus hounds incase someone doesn’t have a car but got approve for orientation!
@@nukleheadtrucker8395 I'm pretty sure you need to drive to the town where your orientation is and then at that point I know they have transportation from the motel to the DC. They might pay for your fuel if you do drive back and forth. I know I've heard other guys mention it. Best thing to do is call the recruiter and ask.
@@20plustrucking oh ok thank u asking for a friend on a different location, but I’m driving tom I start orientation Monday definitely oh wow they pay for gas that’s good I’m nervous 😬 😊
@@nukleheadtrucker8395 well I've heard it mentioned by a couple of drivers something about paying mileage so that's all I really know on that.
"ended up", not "landed up" 🤦🏻
My bad I should learn to talk lol
I ❤️ driving for Walmart, but with this influx of drivers they’ve been hiring the slip seating is getting tough. These trucks are disgracefully dirty and management seems to not care.
I haven't seen too many bad trucks but I guess it depends on how much of a perfectionist you are on cleanliness. I have my own truck so I haven't dealt with this in a long time.
So how much a year ??? Lol
A lot of these guys are making $130,000 to $140,000 a year I only work five on five off so I only make $100,000 a year but being home with the family is a sweet deal.
@@20plustrucking so you saying you work five days then you take five days off ????. Do you what’s thier pet policy???? Thanks
@@theking-bh9ph Yes I work 5 days and then take 5 days off and it just repeats. The pet policy is you can't have pets in the truck. It's kind of a bummer deal I would love to take my dog.
You are waisted your time being a truck driver. My brother doing Uber 50-60 hours week and bringing home $1500-$1700 per week. He work whenever he want and take off whenever he want.
Sounds like you'd have to live near a city to do a job like that. I can never do that. That would totally suck living in the city. I live in the high mountains and there aren't any Ubers anywhere near me whatsoever. Besides that doesn't sound like much fun at all driving some tiny little car. I'd much rather have 18 Wheels.
@@20plustrucking one question, how often in a year or winter weather, do you find yourself with black ice on the street or freeway? I just got my CDL. I am new drivers and looking for a job company to work. We are right on December 12th, 2022. It's bad time to start working? I am concerned about road conditions out there. Any advice? Thanks for your time, since companies are hiring most for 48 states!
@@367nilson really depends on where you're traveling. If you're going over mountain passes you'll hit it occasionally but not every day. My advice is just take it slow there's no need to hurry especially when you're a new driver. I know that sounds really simple but it really is the main thing to focus on when you're a new driver.
