Are we taking hauling cement powder or concrete?
JReding Thanks this. -
I spoke with him last nigh. Gave me an application i tought it would be the concrete trucks but he said if I was hired I would be driving the big dump trucks so I guess it actually would count as experience in a way.

I own my own excavating business over 30 years and had a dump truck business up until 10 or so years ago, take the job driving the dump truck, it will mostly be pit to pit which is easier then going off road, get your experience with that type of truck, if you like the construction field you will see so many different types of trucking that might move to a different type such as dump trailer, walking floor, lowboy...etc. -
Dude, there is tons of experience to be had in that field.
If you are used to going off road you will never want to bump docks and swing doors anyways. It will be very boring.
Take that job and stay in construction and don’t look back, end dumps, belly dumps, flat beds and low boys, crane trucks and operating machines is all things you could do. I’m trying to get into the crane business myself. Pays a hell of a lot more than simply driving a truck. -

They start off at 12 cor training and 16 after. So im rethinking that. They do put a lot of hours in but still 16 seems way too low.
