Still learning things about this before even starting

Please do not keep us all in suspense. So who would you say are the few YouBoob stars that might actually be worth listening to?

 

I get that. And a lot of drivers do the same thing.
But then he goes on to complain about being woken up by someone pounding.
Can't have it both ways, especially if you check in for an early delivery and then go to sleep.
No one would be bothering him if he simply got there and went to sleep. He had to have checked in and told them to wake him up when they could get him in.

And PattyJ, knocking is as good as pounding when you are being woken up from sleep.
Most times a simple knock knock won't do it. It takes a good pounding to wake a very tired driver.
And always trying to beat the times to get more miles for the week usually makes for fatigued drivers.

 

You ever going to start?

Come on man, just do it.

 

Sometimes I like to eat at the booth next to the driver's counter just to hear how much people can BS.

 

When you actually get out on the road and start driving then the real learning will begin. To get a really good picture you need to maybe get in a car and drive for 11 hours per day for 3 days straight then you'll get the idea of what its like to drive none stop. If your having trouble just driving a car long distance then your really going to have an issue when driving a truck.

 

Have told Swift no a good few times. Not necessarily because they run me hard, but not hard enough. Giving me a load that's 500 miles by appointment with 4 days on it and cannot tcall.

No thanks. What am I supposed to do for the other 3.5 days? That's why we hear about people quitting after making a 600 dollar check.

#### right about do it on your own time. Feels like I've countered more loads than I have accepted outright.

 

By the way, I have never had this happen at a shipper. He is right you need to be able to wake up and move your truck, for absolutely certain.

 

False, driving a car for 11 hours is a nightmare that never ends, no matter how fast you drive it. Now driving a truck at 65 mph, it would take me a couple cups of coffee and a good song on the radio and I am down to my last digits on my clock.
