Local stuff here doesn't pay that great. I know that doesn't help much because we are in different parts of the continent, but from what I've...
haha, I had to laugh at the oilfield comment. I was thinking the same thing. I worked in Northern Alberta for an oilfield service company. I...
When I first started driving I didn't want to be "that guy" who has a mile long lineup of cars behind him while driving. With the heavy snowfall,...
Congrats, and best of luck to you! May you always have plenty of fuel in your tanks, plenty of road ahead of you, and all bad weather behind you!
If you were in Alberta, I'd tell you to apply to some of the oilfield companies. You can get your class 1 or 3 license for free. I got my...
I leave Saturday to head to Denver, then reload in Dallas and back to Canada. Should be a nice little run! Glad to get this holiday wrapped up...
I'm signed up through Telus (the phone company up here). I was lucky and signed up when it was an unlimited deal in North America (canada/US)...
My blow up doll named Betty. haha just keeping you guys on your toes! My vote is actually with my laptop because I have an aircard with...
The cold isn't so bad. So far the longest load time I have had was 2.5 hours, and that was my first time strapping and tarping on my own without...
If a car is approaching me with their fog lights on...I turn mine on. If they approach me with brights on, I turn mine on and leave them on...
I think I've had enough time off. I got back home on December 23rd (my choice). Looks like I'm going back on the road January 2nd or maybe the...
Well, when the technology improves to feasibly work with shale oil, then we might be formidable competition to the middle east. However, if you...
Athabasca? I wasn't sure what to think at first, but it seems like it is regarded as a pretty solid education.
I love my company, and couldn't be any happier. its a 10 truck company. The owner is one of the drivers. He also does most of the managerial...
What a bunch of crap. If they lower the driving time any more in the US than what it already is, how will a guy make some money? There are too...
Well at least the trucks aren't limited to 90km/hr like they are in Europe! I hope I don't run to Ontario. That place sucks enough. The speed...
Ya, these trucks don't smoke or drink. If they come to your house to push their religion, try and get them to help you with some home renovations...
Currently sitting on an Aeronautical Engineering Technology diploma (graduated before I started driving). Been thinking about going for an MBA by...
That's why didn't think it was crucial I bought one with a "truck mode". I think its such a big task for them to get that down to a science. I...
My dad has been using a comparable TomTom model (920) in Europe for the last 6 months with his driving over there. I'll compare the route to my...
