2,688 last week. 2,469 this week. On average overall I’d say it’s about 2,500

@@ianelbert do u think melton orientation and training is hard? Or they can fail people?

@@JayStation-x9k nope I’m a company driver

@@christopherraymond2316 I believe most of the fleet currently has them, and Melton is phasing out all the trucks that don’t

@@JJason406 no I don’t think I’ve talked about it in a video. But the main reason I left was because I didn’t like the work schedule. It was basically on call 24/7 unless I was on hometime

@@christianfiguroa7147 I guess that one was just scheduled to ship on Monday

@@mattdarwin6497 it’s kind of just up to luck unfortunately. Most of our freight is on the eastern half of the US. But if you really wanna go that way you could request one or two days of hometime somewhere on the west coast. Then they have to send you over there lol

@@Linknelson yeah I’ll have to add water shoes to my trail bag lol. As far as HOS for the day, your clock will stop counting down after 2hrs of off duty. So I stayed off duty the entire wait time at the shipper, until I started securing. That way I still had hours available to drive even past the regular 14hr work day, it’s called split logging. For securement on this particular load, melton has a securement handbook, and video to refer to because it can be especially tricky. And for the rain, it’s really up to feel and intuition. I didn’t feel confident driving in that rain so I stopped as soon as I could, especially considering I didn’t need to drive more to be on time

@@blackchubztv180 I’d pick flatbed for sure. I think I’d go crazy if 99% of my job was only driving and waiting at shipping docks lol

@@myadventures126 yeah that’s the one. It’s definitely a good one to bike, it seems like it goes forever lol

@ianelbert yes, it goes 24 miles away from town, and like 40+ miles into town and past. There's an outdoor volleyball & bar near town right off the trail. I road over and played volleyball one day while doing a 34.

@@myadventures126 nice that would’ve been fun! Unfortunately I had to call it a day after stabbing my foot lol

@ianelbert 🤣 I do hope you're doing better. Where you sitting today.

@@myadventures126 eutaw Alabama, delivering near Atlanta in the morning

@@nickslifestyle thanks man, you too💪

@@jonfelty6063 will do! Thank you!

@@BTyler808 last job only required class b but I went ahead n got class a

@@sethq3676 tmc seems good too from what I hear. Good luck, stay safe!

How long do you do each Asset Inspection on Truck and Trailer?

@@monteske6687 I just log my post trip 10-15 mins, and mark the asset inspection for both as complete right before I go off duty. I don’t wait any amount of time for them, I just mark down that I did them basically. And I’ve had a few inspections by DOT and they said my logs were good. I think they just wanna see that you actually logged it in some capacity. But results may vary lol

@@bsweating7151 awesome! Good luck with your training and stay safe out there

Keep it that way ma guy. Same here single asf making a bank

I was out for 4 months, but yeah only because I chose to be

Does TMC hire out of California????

@@jobanyzamudio9080 sorry for the late reply, no they don’t hire out of California. There’s not much freight for us to my knowledge that far west.

I’m thinking I’m going TMC next month.

@@jobanyzamudio9080 no they don’t

@@GirlDADart Can’t go wrong with them. Pretty good training, pay, equipment, people and management.
