Help a trucker wannabe out!

When you get tired of pullin an ice-box, go to Crete Carriers, the dry van side, or Hunt out of Omaha, the flatbed side, all of the same company just different divisions.

 

I'll email the PDF of mine buddy. No problem. Just give me a minute..

EDIT: It's sent brother.

 

Ummmm...that's odd?? You had to fill it out in order to get your DOT physical done and your DOT physical card. Hmmmm????

 

The biggest mistake new drivers make is thinking that this is a job. Its not its a way of life. A job you get to go home and are not responsible after you put in your required hours. In trucking you are still responsible for that load until it delivers even if you are logged in the sleeper or off duty.Another myth is about the pay look at it this way some drivers do make a great living and others are starving there are alot of reasons for this difference. Companies, pay scale, freight, hometime, equipment whether you are solo or team, E logs. All of these will factor into this true enough but the most important factor is you. Is this truly something you want to do are you really into as a career and not looking for a quick payday. I know we have all heard it before you will get out of it what you put in. I just truly feel new drivers have no clue about this industry until they get in and how could they. You cannot rehearse being waken up in the middle of the night by a forklift going in and out of your trailer, or being told you are loaded and ready to roll at 11 pm when you should be going to sleep. Or getting used to people and trucks constantly moving around you when you just want some quiet time. All the while being away from family and loved ones. All I am trying to say is this should not be a last ditch effort to get a job or I promise you nothing but failure is in store for you. If you need a job go to McDonalds or to the local 7-11.
