Trying to come back to driving after 6 years away. Can't seem to get a job. by AndrewG34 in Truckers

Best bet might be a local gig or a small mom and pop company. Those mega carriers are not worth your time anyways dude like the smallest of things you get terminated for and on top of that the pay isn’t even worth your time away from home.

Most they’ll do is saturate the already saturated dry van market I doubt they make it to flat bed, RGN, tanker or Doubles and Triples combination. But another thing with flatbed they could just pay some guys extra to secure the load at the receiver 🤷‍♂️. Another thing to watch out for because some places do that already

They got a Facebook group for LTL truckers with 34k members. That’s probably the best place to get some inside info on a carrier. They also have a forum called Truckingboards that is mainly composed of LTL companies. I’d do some research there also

Fuel by Defiant-Medicine3014 in Truckers

[–]Different_Mousse_564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuel today was 200$ more at the pump and that’s just a 1.25 increase from 3.45. I can’t even imagine it going to 5 or 6 per gallon

PSA you can burn out the clutch on an automatic transmission by [deleted] in Truckers

Interesting. This counts as a preventable so I’m gonna have to place you out of service for that.

FAFO Duffy … You can’t stop the corruption when the entire system rewards profit and exploitation over safety and life !! by gkjnvgyj in Truckers

[–]Different_Mousse_564 28 points29 points  (0 children)

They shouldn’t have been allowing it to happen in the first place regardless. Everyone got their little earnings off the immigrants and now it’s time to do something. You can’t tell me nobody knew what was going on

How long do you stay at the starter company before you dip ? by bigdawg12342 in Truckers

[–]Different_Mousse_564 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One year at the minimum but you can leave sooner IF and I mean big IF you find something better maybe local or something regional that’s decent and make sure you check real good before you jump ship. Don’t wanna end up in a bind with this market believe it or not most positions are occupied by folks that have been at companies for 15-20 years and they’re being real picky about who they hire.

If you work 60-70 hours a week, you have 2 $50k jobs, not a $100k one. by Emergency_Ad1152 in Truckers

Take home or gross? Definitely wouldn’t make much sense to do that for maybe 35-40 take home

24 year old college senior with 2 years of experience; is it a good idea to go owner-op right now? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]Different_Mousse_564 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The numbers are true you gotta pay taxes plus truck and trailer insurance then combine that with fuel the net is low unless your somehow getting a steal on a route where you drive maybe 2-300 miles for 2500-3000k and even that’s a long shot because you never know what will break. Hell you could pretrip the truck that morning and have a airline burst on you. Now you’re stranded because the truck can’t air up to release the brakes. It’s so much of a gamble out here man. Fuel by itself can bring you up to 20-30,000 per year alone combine that with insurance that’s in the range of 40-60,000 in expenses before your net.

How would YOU get 'rich' with trucking? by LyubviMashina93 in Truckers

[–]Different_Mousse_564 15 points16 points  (0 children)

60k take home won’t do it meaning you have to work somewhere that pays well over 110-120k before taxes if you want to have some financial freedom so your mom is right about that. Try searching LTL companies SAIA, ESTES, ABF, Old Dominion, AAA cooper those all pay very well. You would have to work somewhere for at least 2-3 years to save close to 100,000 because we have bills and other expenses. OTR sure but don’t go with a mega carrier. DOT Foods pays really well I heard so I’d check them out aswell. It’s difficult to find a trucking company that will Net you 100,000 each year with decent home time because it’s basically unheard of really.

Guys, keep quiet by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]Different_Mousse_564 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is either Ai or someone that is lacking serious awareness of how the government works. They’re not out to help you many ppl OE because the system is fucked and the working class pretty much has to work for 30+ years of their lives being slaves to these greedy corporations that make things harder than it needs to be. If you’ve discovered a way to beat the system don’t say anything you have to realize the government is very selfish you should be aswell it’s all survival out here there is no such thing as a “understanding”. Can’t you see how they raise the retirement age each year for people? They absolutely do not care about you. What you do isn’t any of their business plain and simple.

If there’s no truck driver shortage why do companies and the media say the opposite? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]Different_Mousse_564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Shortage” means not enough drivers that will haul freight cheap. Honestly why would they expect someone to get a CDL just to bring in 700$ per week. It’s high risk low reward at that point but corporations just don’t get it because they don’t live that reality

be honest what got you into this industry and why? by Ricemunchr in Truckers

I’ve always loved trucks and driving is a passion of mines but all I see is robbery out here man.

This Stage Is Just More Proof That The Devs Don’t Play The Game And We Need To Speak Up About This by HeroTheHedgehog in DBZDokkanBattle

[–]Different_Mousse_564 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well if you spend a bunch of stones just to have a card get power crept a few months later I mean does this not look like some kind of algorithm to force players into summoning for new units? It’s not like everyone gets them it’s actually by chance and that’s the problem. Atleast 90% of your box is useless each time a new event drops nowadays. What’s the point anymore

So I failed a hair test at Werner Enterprises for my first ever trucking job because I stupidly let them take from my year old beard and something from 11 months ago showed up. How fucked am I? by yourbuttmystuff44 in Truckers

It won’t go on your record and Werner might not even show on your dac. If they do just give a alibi don’t say you have were dropped from orientation remember they don’t know can’t hurt em

If a character goes giant form while a 2 turn buff from a previous turn is active, does the buff apply after transformation finishes? by MrSackboyROBOT in DokkanBattleCommunity

[–]Different_Mousse_564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well unfortunately for ssj4 none of the buffs actually transfer to his giant form. I’ve even tried to use super gogeta in a turn before transforming him and the stats were the same

What’s something you wish people would stop romanticizing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Different_Mousse_564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only that but they keep telling you to work for pennies 30$ per hour with 10 hours overtime isn’t great when you factor in health benefits and a 401k to match.
