Top 3 things new drivers b aware of. Backing in tight truck stops at night…sharp right hand turns in small cities…and break downs😩

[@EruditeTrucker]

I'll second that. 🧔🏿👍🏿

[@AriesPrestige]

That was tough because I wanted to drive. He had to make sure my three point contact was even easy for me too. He just baby me

[@davidhorne2326]

I think the big lot in WV was used as an underground (natural gas) pipe storage facility.

[@EruditeTrucker]

Ah, interesting. 🤔

[@AriesPrestige]

It feels weird to go from sitting higher up to sitting lower in the car. My first time and week in the truck I caught a cold and rested as my partner drove. Due to the altitude coming from Colorado springs to drive to Virginia

[@EruditeTrucker]

Thanks for sharing

[@erichighsmith7299]

Wish I knew that I needed to clear Everything out of my truck when it had a massive breakdown. They told me I would be issued a 'temporary truck' and to 'take everything out that you need' I took that literally (things I need till I get back to my truck) well my temp truck got turned into my perminate truck. and I lost a few items that I left behind (chargers, USB.. small things). If you read this how long you been with tmc? ever been contacted about joining the final mile acct? I've been with tmc for 3+ years and currently final mile driver.

[@EruditeTrucker]

I've been with the company for a similar amount of time. I've never heard of the final mile account. What exactly do you do?

[@erichighsmith7299]

@@EruditeTrucker The Final Mile Account is a home daily dedicated acct. delivering only from Home Depot. To peoples homes or sometimes businesses. OSB, lumber, drywall etc… home daily (Good). Work 6 days a week only two holidays Thanksgiving and Christmas off (Bad). That’s a very basic breakdown of what the Finale Mile account is. Also includes using a forklift yourself to offload/deliver the order. I thought that was a good skill to learn and think so. Pls keep making ur videos, even ppl who have been with TMC for years do appreciate them.

[@superbass311]

They remove the stacks so it's good to transport under 13.5

[@EruditeTrucker]

That makes sense.

[@johnwolf1475]

damn you need to go to a cooler place like az.. you be comfy in that shade

[@AriesPrestige]

I miss the truck

[@shaikirksey3208]

So crazy question but you know how you keep the S rings you find for your bungies and storage management, do you take your S rings or take the whole bungies/Chains with you? Weird question lol J.W.

[@EruditeTrucker]

I only take loose S rings that I find on the ground. Nothing with a bungee still attached.

[@shaikirksey3208]

@@EruditeTrucker no right I understand I remember watching a video where I think you said you use those loose S rings to manage your chains or something. So when you have to move a whole truck do you keep that set up for the next driver or do you take the chains with you since you spent the time organizing them with the S rings you’ve found.

[@EruditeTrucker]

All of the company owned equipment stays with the old truck. I only take my personal equipment. I keep my S rings.

[@spartan301622]

What the heck happened to your mattress looks like you fought it

[@EruditeTrucker]

I have no idea. 🤷🏿‍♂️ Those mattress bags are not sturdy.

[@sonneao]

Where do you put all your stuff if you still don't have your new truck?

[@sonneao]

Nevermind, you answer that later on in the video.
