Larger companies will reject if you come across as someone who will stand up for themselves and not put up with their crap!

I have been on the road for 18 years! And I did long distance all of South America and all of North America for a long time, what about those disfuncional companies out there that take advantage on the drivers, being so nice and humble, and expect the driver be more than the driver, you are a CDL driver, but The company have excavator, cranes, lull machine, and expect the driver, do the driver job and do the machine operator job as well and pay the driver a very little extra money to do all? And look at you as a humble person who like the skills you have been using for so long, and most of your duties e both, and they force you to do everything if you want to stay( that it’s taking advantage way to much) but if you ask a company to pay you the driver salary and the machine operator salary they stop to like you and treat you bad forcing you to quit what about that?

I was just wondering is ET Transport considered a big company?

[@NorthAmerican-Trucking-News]

sorry we dont, we only have Concord, Ontario and Moncton NB

[@jonnyb0071]

When I started with my company, it took me two years of phone calls, letters etc to eventually get a job, basically it was dead man's boots, now they will literally take anyone on, within reason, because of the acute driver shortage & they still can't fill all the vacancies. How times have changed.

[@604h22a]

Yeah timing is everything I was in the same boat 4 years ago without experience your resume goes to the recycle

[@shannondavis5728]

Experienced truck drivers should be making no less than $130K per year or more(adjusted for inflation)

[@pewenavarro6222]

Nice video man how can I get in touch with you or with your company? I am from México, I 'm truck driver and my question is the company you are working for is hiring foreing workers?, if you want me to, I can send you video and photos of What I do here in Mexico and speaking English and the truck I drive, you won't believe the truck I drive and I own the truck and how much Weight carry on my truck. I hope you answer me.

[@Dilaxan123]

Hi, what is the requirements for getting into your company. I've been watching alot of your videos and I'm really interested in joining. I have an year experience driving all over canada and US. My license is also an year old. If you guys can respond, it would be really appreciated.

[@terraplane7655]

Just a hunch, these guys probably have a LONG line of highly qualified, pro-prospects, and have (get) to choose from the best of the best, including years of experience.

[@SosaUpt]

Never ever make repairs on a company's truck even if you are qualified, if anything happens, you will be held responsible trying to save the company a couple bucks is simply not worth it and not worth you working for such organizations. Sorry man you fucked up when you said that you really started to sound out of this world, like E.T.

[@z-flex4535]

They are looking for a pulse these days.

[@TheIsisryan13]

Clean record oh good luck It's an insurance scam there is rules and laws that's out there that give drivers dirty records this industry is so pathetic however most of this is right

[@nellblake5015]

What's up with the white T? Not saying you look dirty etc...but you're hunched over looking like you facetiming a friend on a personal level. Jus saying. Nothing wrong with being casual and welcoming to viewers but you know a lot of truckers unfortunately may think they can go into an interview with a white T and jeans and consider that professional trucker attire. So sit up straight, have an acceptable outfit on to show the minimum at least of how to dress for the interview, meaning stand up so they can see. Not being disrespectful but HONESTLY a lot of people do not know and have certain views of being a truck driver. Jus sayin. Very informational video though : )

Clean shaven? Really? Smh I don't think so. My beard is not an indication of my hygiene. Come on man.

[@rainysunday6186]

Beard makes you look nasty. The bacteria in beard are the same as fecal matter.

[@saintnick1552]

Your both wrong. Clean shaven doesn't mean no beard..... It could mean a well trimmed, tidy beard.

[@philb4049]

@@rainysunday6186 that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Smh 🤣😂🤣😂

[@philb4049]

@@saintnick1552 uhm,...no...clean shaven means clean shaven it does not mean well maintained. If he meant well maintained he should have said well maintained. There is a huge difference. Clean shaven means I can't a card scrape stubble, it means smooth and clean.

[@philb4049]

@@KittyKrazeWithDar uhm so, these bacteria are the same as you can find on your skin on a daily basis. a beard is only as dirty as a person allows it to be, certainly no worse than the hair on top of your head.
