Got my first Job, now what?

Cool, good luck! If you intend to do youtube videos, make sure you are well aware of their social media policy, if they have one.

 

Western Express

 

Your company should tell you what to bring for orientation. If the company pays you by direct deposit, bring a canceled check or your bank routing number & bank account.

You will be drug tested.

 

Best of luck to you sir.

 

Now what?

You need some idea of how to show up to work?

You work.

You FoCuS ON WORK and learning.

YOU forget the stupid idea of starting a youtube channel, because if you have that much time to stick your face on youtube, you are not taking this seriously.

 

Good luck, sir!

 

Save the cowboy hat for after you have your solo truck. Cowboy hat takes a lot of room when you are sharing the truck. A baseball cap is better.

Put off YouTube until solo, IF YOU HAVE TO DO IT AT ALL. Remember, every second of YT can just as easily give ammo for firing you as make you famous. Roll through a stop sign, or some other traffic violation can be used to fire you. There are hundreds & hundreds of low-quality trucking YT. Focus on learning. The last thing the industry needs is another self-involved YT Hero talking to 4 people.

NEVER EVER PARK AT A FUEL PUMP, EVER. NOT EVEN ONCE. Break that rule if you are ready to practice MMA with nor warning.

 

Good luck. Personally I would wait awhile before doing any YouTube videos. Take the time to learn well first. I would recommend checking out Supertrucker Dan, Craig Ryan, and Neil Shane Otts for good flatbed YouTube videos. Supertrucker Dan is the only one still doing Trucking videos but Craig & Neil have some good older videos.
