Ty. I appreciate the advice. But I’d be honest, I don’t even know how or what to do to optimize my channel. But I enjoy creating content. It’s fun.

@@everythingeddie you optimize your channel for SEO?

@ how do you do that? I’m illiterate when it comes to this haha

@@everythingeddie Videos should be SEO by rank tag #1 and videos should be promoted in your video related groups. By doing this you will get viewers and subscribers. I say 100%

@@MdRaihanIslamRubel ty for the advice. I’m going to look into this and see how I go about doing this. I appreciate you.

Negate it? Definitely not. That was a terrible moment. Though a really bad decision should not negate all of his successes. Unless that person is Aaron Hernandez lol

Nope. His personal problem not something the public needs worry about.

@@MrLennybachI agree 💯. We can judge all we want on how someone lives their life like we don’t have skeletons of our own. This was a cool experience that I was happy to share. Whatever he did or did not do doesn’t change what he’s accomplished. Thanks

Sure! The specifics vary depending where you live. But in general becoming a truck driver will require: A clean driving record with no major violations. Google a CDL school near you. Keep in mind, if they do not offer manual trucks, you will have an exception on your license. Some may even offer grants to help pay for the class. In class you will obtain physical exam, Permit and plenty of practice with the tractor all prior to obtaining your CDL. I hope this help. Let me know if there’s something specific you want to know. If it’s easier I can post a video on the breakdown. Good luck to you.

@@jpc08109 that’s amazing!! You’re going to have a great time. Thank you!

@@SSJDubz 😂 I will suggest you don’t yawn. Big brother is watching. Lol jk. It is pretty sensitive. It activates when you hit a big bump on the road. It can also sense your eyes and head position and let you know if you’re being distracted. But no worries, it will warn you a few times before it records the event. Hope this help

@@chrisbacon1419 in which state?

@@alikhelifi7636 the quick answer is between 10-12 hrs for 5 days. Good luck to you. Perhaps we will cross paths. Any question or anyway I can help I’m available.

@@everythingeddie Thanks man i appreciate it, i’ll be working out off central PA so we’ll probably not cross paths but who knows lol, they gave me a 4 days on 3 days off schedule, i see most people working 5 days not sure why i got this schedule but hey i won’t complain i’ll take it

@@alikhelifi7636 damn you’re lucky. Ha. Yes PA Is a bit out the way. But feel free and reach out either way. Good luck drive safe

Great advice! I do that all the time. It takes seconds to achieve this. Every time I walk back to my truck after being unattended, I always check my pins, 5th wheel and connectors. Seeing how the lock was my first time I experienced it being left behind, I do not want to let my guard down when god forbid someone moved a pin or something and I failed to do a quick walk around. Thank you!

Yea I believe that's part of the pre trip inspection before you go down the road. Thanks for spreading the education driver. Be safe, keep it between the mayonnaise and the mustard or you'll end up like ketchup or catsup twatever you call it.

Thank you for your reply. And I 100% agree with you. It’s not an easy job. It’s bound to happen. I preach about this and it’s never happened to me until now. Because you never know. After 3 years this is the first time, I just thought it was a good PSA moment. We all have to do our part. It’s not just one person responsibility. It is all of ours. I appreciate the work you guys do. Again, not easy.

I think you’re right! I’ve seen many videos that the cam came in handy.

Good question. It’s based on the work load for that day. But like I mentioned, if it’s not busy, they will still find work for you. But it is expected to work 10 hrs. If you’re done sooner with all pre assignments before the 10, they will ask if you want more or go home early.

😂🫣

no thats just complicated and weird

😂

Hi Lynn. And thank you! for as long as I’ve been here, they never not run me. It is pretty consistent. I can average between 4-6 loads a day depending on the day. Most people can do more or less. If it is slow, they will find work for you. If it is busy, they will give you as many loads you can handle. The pay will determine how much you work. For me, I can do about 6-8 loads a day. And that’s me slacking lol. You should see a check anywhere between $12-1400/ week before taxes. Lowest would be $1000/ week. This account requires 3 months experience. And they do have in facing cameras on all vehicle. This is a new thing that happened within the year. I’m currently about to post a video answering your questions in more detail. Stay tune for that. I hope I was helpful. And good luck to you 😊

@@everythingeddie thanks for the info I will be waiting for that video the info was helpful I appreciate it

Oh man! I’m sorry to hear. It’s been awhile since I’ve worked there. Could have new management. I would just say, if you’re new to trucking, Swift is a good enough company to work 3-6months just to gain experience with and move on to a better company that could work with you. Good luck to you sir.

Yeaaaa buddy!! Congratulations! Welcome to the fam!

@@everythingeddie does jb hunt put inward facing camera in their truck?

@@EliteFilmsGaming yes they do. I’m currently working on a video going over what to expect when coming to this account, including the camera. Stay tune for that.

My opinion: I wouldn’t focus solely on the CPM as it could be misleading. I can offer you $1/mile but have you sit most of the week. Instead, focus on the average of miles you’d get per week. You’d find that sometimes , you could get paid about the same. To answer your question, I like the Regional route better. Especially if you can get a dedicated lane working for an account. It’s consistent work and you’d make about the same every week. OTR can be fun and lucrative if they have the freight that keeps you moving. OTR could be a gamble where I know for a fact there’ll be times you’ll end up at a drop on a Sat and sit till Monday because there’s no planners till Monday. Regional, you could go to a state or two away and back and be home during your reset at times. I hope this help and good luck to you. Congratulations in graduating.

😆 I couldn’t do anything. You didn’t even allow me to shower. Lol

All great points!! I appreciate it. Absolutely! I agree about everything else possibly being a concern and you’ve mentioned a few. I guess what I was trying to say is that, all those obvious issues are all part of trucking and are pretty obvious. However , I feel like not many people would think to worry about a load that is sealed. A newer driver may look at that and assume it must be good. And not think twice on how it’s been loaded. You clearly have years under your belt and this subject is common sense. And it’s a great point you made about scaling. I’ve been on this account about 2 years now and we’ve had about 3 rollovers that I know of since that time. Each one was because they took a turn too fast. One was just going around a roundabout going 20 mph and fell to the side. Maybe they were overly confident on the weight of the load they were carrying. But I 100% Agree there’s things more serious to be aware of. But for me, seeing how most (new) drivers may not think about how it’s loaded and just go by the BOL and see that they’re under 25lbs , they should drive if they’re 40k lbs. I appreciate your feedback and thank you.

🤢 lol

Interesting. Never thought of trying that. Always felt that the customer will turn me away if they saw it with no seal.

So you carry security bolts with you?

@@Ken-rq3ylnope. Simple wire ties and locks if i think its warranted. 90% of the time just put the seal back in the hole let it hang. Never a problem . If there jackasses the make you sit an count it anyway…. I open up every trailer i move.. not getting bagged for illegal chit. Ran for feds twice and that was understandably not to touch… but escorted.

Meh. Sounds like unnecessary extra work. No one got time for that lol. I’ll just keep that seal on and just drive safe to the customer.

@@everythingeddieyou do understand whats in that trailer is your problem no matter what. If you think its ok to even haul a hazmat load with no placards because of a simple mistake in paperwork because you didn’t check or unsecured load…. Not to smart in the head. Kinda why the new breed is called steering wheel holders🤦‍♂️😄😎🤣🤣🤣 But your young so …. Maybe you’ll figure it out later 💰😎

😂😆🤣 Yaaa I would consider that pretty dangerous lol

That’s very true! People suck! You do get to see other drivers do everything else behind that wheel other than drive. 🤯. People cut right in front of me all the time just to end up at the same traffic light. Very irritating. Tell him to be safe

With the kind of technology that exist nowadays, a camera, even a wireless bluetooth / wifi connected type camera recording device should be installed on all trailers to be able to check the load inside the container, no excuses really. To include a remote controlled spotlight activated light gadget to see very well inside.

Thanks Brotha

Thank you!! I was hoping to convey the message that the hard working crew have to make sure locks are removed. I see them everyday tip toeing and balancing themselves in order to either secure or release each lock from EVERY container that are miles long. Definitely not easy.

Definitely not cute as one lol.
