    Hope ya enjoyed your Texas adventure haha. I just got out of the house this week, first load out was too tight for my hours so had to relay it. Dispatch made up for it with a 1200 mile run to Utah. Yippee! Safe travels

    A lot of those buildings are cross dock businesses swapping freight from Mexico trucks to US trucks. The Fuel America truck stop has pretty good Mexican food. Usually stop there on the way to the hotel.

    Just a little thank you for those videos of backing a dolly with the lead trailer, I can finally do it after several tries as long as I don't get to far away from the rear trailer🤣 I've been seeing your old employer FWC leaving out of the North Carolina area on 85 and I was just thinking could that be you, but I'm guessing not. I will go in the left lane if I have to pass as you're not supposed to pass on the right side.Later Bro

    What was your first trucking company right out of school??

    • @FreightHauler87
      @FreightHauler87  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I got my CDL through Trade School, I was an apprentice lineman for two years before trucking. The first company was Swift in 2016, only because they could hire me immediately and put me with a trainer the following Monday. Schneider was my first choice back then.

    Chris! What's going on man? Can you do an update video on how everythings going with the company and what not? Estes got a new ELD system so no more peoplenet, has some ups but definitely some cons. Take care man!

      @TennesseeTrout419 ปีที่แล้ว

      @FreightHauler87 Yeah, the system is pretty easy, but it babysits you more as it uses GPS to tell what the speed is there, and if you go over 5mph, then it docks you.

      @@TennesseeTrout419 At least they didn't stick a driver facing camera along with it. We just got the system this week in the West. What do you mean "docks you"? Have you got a call from safety?

    • @TennesseeTrout419
      @TennesseeTrout419 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @kokalti True. I would've quit if they did that. No, I've kept my score above 80, but there's a number with a circle around it, and that's your performance score. Get too low for too long, and you'll get called in.
