A day in the life of a readymix operator

goproed a regular winter day as a ready mix operator in the fraser valley....some days you may get 1 load like today and some days you may get 6 anyhow. its the same all day ,,load,, clean, slump ,,,drive,, deliver,etc,etc,etc, pay is good days can be long health insurance good and people usually great. if you can show you know what your doing!! would never be able to film this in summer time, its just too damn busy!!

[@thomascalahan8494]

My favorite part is washing out at the end of the day! Doing a pour up in the mountains is always a blast.

[@michaelmiles7301]

Good music that will keep you rolling and help with road rage as well... lol

[@laurencer7558]

[@donaldbartram6315]

I see a lot of the country still use rear discharge. I'm from New England before moving to central Florida. Rear Discharge is a thing of the past up in Ct. no one uses them I mean no one,, Here in Fl it's like 50/50 in fleets.

Drove trucks and batched concrete for over 30 year in UK, always busy 40 to 60 cm3 most days with 6 cm3 truck . Never could see the need for the extra pair of wheels right at the back used used on trucks in USA. Like video brings back good memories as retired over 10 years ago.

[@jcampezzi1027]

An explanation of what each step would help tremendously.

[@peterward4005]

Looking at starting for lafarge Calgary. Heard some bad things about the job but you and them sell it pretty well. Gotta beat 15 days on logging roads in the middle of nowhere

[@AngelRaphaelbrokenhero]

Awsome I'm going to check it out thx

[@heavycruzer1801]

Your load sounds like an 8" slump. My bad more like an 8.5 or 9". Great music by the way

[@gordonlightfoot1333]

Badass music

[@davidparker4943]

I hate it when the finishers don’t have a place to wash down.

[@sdffsdfdsfsdfsdf8334]

i worked out of a target DC trucking to the stores from the target DC, i can totally understand me working 70 hours a week cause stores always have people buying things. but i dont understand how the companies like robertson's ready mix are the most common trucks on the road. is there really that much cement being laid? that much construction going on? i rarely see construction sites.

[@skenticus462]

Concrete is the 2nd most consumed substance in the world-behind water... sooo.

[@Ilikemixingthingsup]

sdffsdf dsfsdfsdf I've been working as a ready mix driver for Robertson's for a year now (out of los angeles) and let me tell you you'll be suprised how much work there is. i was suprised when I first started that every day I was clocking in 12 hr shifts easily. 15 hrs if i feel like doing a extra load. the job sites are just hidden honestly or not all that big at times. i do really enjoy it though

[@hectorgarcia-zv1wi]

Do they pay good did u like working for the company are they taking care of you there

[@troyb4533]

16/hour about what the pay should be?

[@isabeljauma1263]

Hi is manual the change

[@jayluquire9789]

what band is this?

[@phsycopiano]

I want to check out your reclaim system. We have a bucket that connects to the end of the chute that pumps the water back into the drum. Yours looks very different though

[@charitymcgowen9108]

How do you get a job doing this?

[@chikilin4831]

[@chadsmith6844]

Good video. How much does a readymix operator make per year ? Being seasonal, you probably get 1-2 months off.

[@Anthonyhancock71]

60-100 a year depends on jobs and weather
