I get money whenever an ad plays in front of the video and either at least 30 seconds of the ad is watched, or someone clicks on the link given by the advertiser. If someone clicks on the link and buys something, I get a small percentage of the money that company made.
Is there anyone who'll hire me with three accidents on my record that are a year old?

Well, another update. I might have lost my job. When my shift started this afternoon, I asked my manager if I'd be driving the yard truck today. He said, "No, you'll be helping in the warehouse." I said, "Okay, we have a problem here. I need to know how long I'll be out of the truck." They sent me to another manager. I asked him, "So, how long am I gonna be out of the truck?" He said, "well, we still have to talk with someone and see what we're gonna doing with you." "You crashed the truck, right?" I said, "what the heck you talkin' about, 'I crashed the truck' "?! He said, "well, we gotta report that you hit a trailer..." "Let me be clear," I said, "I didn't hit the trailer!" "I don't know what that guy saw, but he didn't see me hit that trailer!" (They probably won't believe me because that guy's been there longer.) I then went back to the first office and said, "Well, he didn't give me a satisfactory answer. "No days, weeks, hours... He just said he needs to talk to someone and decide..." After a long pause, the manager said, "well, that's where they're at right now... you're welcome to work at the warehouse if you want..." I said, "Oh, you're giving me a choice?!" She said, after a long pause, "They're not gonna pay you for that, just so you know... Is that what you want?" I replied, "well to be honest, I applied for a yard driver position. I expected to be driving yard trucks, not working in a warehouse." She said, " 'well to be honest,' you hit a trailer, so..." "I DID NOT HIT THAT TRAILER," I said. She said, "alright, don't forget to clock out." "Keep calling everyday to see if we've reached a decision, yet." So yeah, I may have to look for another job...

I don’t think driving is for you. Just based on what you’ve posted in this thread, this might not be the career for you.
Maybe the YouTube stuff is better suited for you? I dunno- but if this isn’t the career for you that’s not the end of the world. Don’t let it get you down.Dan.S, KillingTime and tinytim Thank this. -
There are some companies based in Illinois with white Volvo’s, mainly employ people from Slavic countries, give them a call. They require a uniform, it consists of an adidas track suit, and pumas

Yep Jonathan, time to move on. If you want to drive, start the applications.

Also sounds like he's got something more gainful going on which might lead him to not caring about driving......
Was he posting up a YouTube vid when he slammed that trailer that he said he didn't?.... and strangely NO-ONE believes it..... -
Lonesome Thanks this.

Okay, I realize a lot of you are convinced I did hit the trailer, so I uploaded actual footage of me picking up and backing up a real trailer WITHOUT hitting the adjacent trailers. You're more than welcome to comment on my skill after seeing this footage which is at the beginning of the video.
