Man ain’t this the truth ❤ I aint gonna lie I feel like I just followed the trend from seeing KZbin videos and TikTok’s. That’s what get us they don’t show us the bad stuff. WE ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN BEFORE GETTING INTO TRUCKING. Been out here 9 months in it’s been tough but we still trucking 🚛🚛

[@Slimepack392]

Thanks for your honesty! Stay safe💚💚

[@kleetie12]

You are soooo right!! I was just talking with my cousin about trucking...ppl think it's soooo much money out here cause of KZbin videos and social media showing the upside of trucking..them folks that's making that money have probably been doing it for awhile and put in a lot blood sweat and tears also ppl don't know everything you have to go thru..it's not just hop in the truck and drive. Plus you are right what's good money to some may not be good to someone else and vice versa...sorry this is long but had to put my 2 cents in lol...love the vlogs keep them coming

[@Slimepack392]

You’re right! Thanks for sharing! 💚

[@gmrite22]

Facts! Prime is great for training. When I did TNT it was 40k I thought that was a lot but it worked out I got into every situation possible with my trainer so I was prepared when I went solo.

[@darrylmccorey9646]

The training you get only prepares you for all the obstacles, challenges you’re going to be dealing with, practicing being safe on the road and building your road skills and driving skills, practice your backing up skills, I have other truckers that I follow on KZbin the videos they show they had to back up into these crazy tight spots and some of these businesses have parking lots be jacked up , lot of mud water. , potholes ditches near the business ,you have to maneuver around all these different obstacles to back up into these docs, check your surroundings before you back up into these places. Be aware of everything around you take your time there’s no rush. overtime you’ll be able to do these things with your eyes close 😊😊🚛🚚 be safe out there on the road. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@christerry3946]

Coming as a previous trainer at Melton Truck Lines, I always tell people that Prime has one of the best training programs and even tried to bring that over to Melton before I left. Even though I’m #flatbedgang I can relate to your videos. And keep them coming.

Hey Slime, buy a leaf blower to clean out the trailer. If the warehouses dont ask for a washout reciept or if there's blood in the trailer from chicken loads, then grab your leaf blower and blow out debris and dust. Saved me plenty times.

Get ya CDL people. Don’t let nobody discourage you. It’s plenty of money out here. These KZbinrs be trying to discourage yall by saying it’s hard. It’s not, it’s just driving for long hours and being on the road away from family. GET YA CDL PEOPLE

[@Slimepack392]

🤦‍♀️You didn’t have a clear understanding of what I said

[@stevenwilbanks2865]

It is hard. Most people are used to working 8 hours and going home. Getting overtime after 8hr and 40hr. That ain't happening over here. You do realize when an industry gets over-saturated, the money tends to spread instead of pile. Keep telling people get a CDL, and you will learn first hand how much money there really is out here.

Hey❤❤❤ I think you finished your TNT weeks before I did..Im a lease operator now..things are slow..but Im hanging in there, one thing that I noticed is that dispatchers trying to treat you as a company driver rather than as owner operator. Prime needs to understand they are teaming with us..we dont work for them WE ARE A TEAM.

[@stevenwilbanks2865]

As a lease driver, did you buy your truck outside of Prime or leased through Prime? If it's the latter, they are going to work you to their benefit. Lease drivers at mega companies are extensions of company drivers. They will run you just enough to make that truck payment.
