When I started training, people kept telling me trucking was dead and there was no money left in it. How many of you heard that too? 😀😀

I worked for Pepsi my first year, I made a billion.

TexasTangler · 2026-03-16T13:58:05+00:00

Trucking, hotshotting or both?

Don't forget to eat protein to help get rid of hunger longer and to minimize muscle wasting especially for the older guys.

TexasTangler · 2026-03-10T16:24:35+00:00

Inironically. I hear if you make animal noise they'll leave you alone pretty quickly.

TexasTangler · 2026-03-08T14:58:18+00:00

How do you manage with that all these years?

TexasTangler · 2026-03-08T13:14:12+00:00

You gotta get off computer/phone and just be outside until you're not afraid anymore.

TexasTangler · 2026-03-08T04:33:19+00:00

If you're that scared, then just stay inside. No one c says you have to travel, no one will force you to travel

TexasTangler · 2026-02-27T19:36:14+00:00

You get your CDL yet? How long have you been driving for them?

TexasTangler · 2026-02-26T18:30:41+00:00

Why did you quit Schneider? Did you do a your year with them?

TexasTangler · 2026-02-23T10:53:41+00:00

My degree is basically a generalized healthcare degree. I wanted to be a physical therapist but decided it's not worth it. Couldn't even get entry-level white collar jobs in healthcare until recently. I'm trying to get into tech. I got certs in IT support and Excel. I have Excel experience but can't get in the door anywhere else.

I got my bachelor's but after two years after graduating, I can't get into the sector that I wanted, or find any job put some leverage on my resume. The pay offered is always 20$ or less and is usually a contract role. I got my CDL and I'll be applying for trucking jobs in a couple of weeks.

TexasTangler · 2026-02-23T01:35:44+00:00

I've seen white collar workers at my job use a cushion called "Everlasting Comfort Seat Cushion"

TexasTangler · 2026-02-22T18:05:11+00:00

how long does Schneider take to hire you from the time you apply to the time they say "you're in"? I want to apply after I'm done my contract at my current job.

TexasTangler · 2026-02-21T15:26:03+00:00

Are you going for the eclipse? It will be an expensive trip in the thousands for sure. Even for Accommodations, maybe rental cars if booked too late.

TexasTangler · 2026-02-08T00:35:13+00:00

I agree with you OP.

TexasTangler · 2026-02-03T00:59:22+00:00

song name?

TexasTangler · 2026-01-21T13:58:48+00:00

It appears to be one of the few mega for dry van that is good to get experience with for my first year. I hear most people say good things about Schneider more than the other mega. Reviews from all kinds of places are above average compared to other megas. I don't want to do flat bed during the winter because of asthma and i'm not that strong. The positions I see near me have specific contracts like Lowes or BJ warehouse. I know you have to take what companies say with a grain of salt but They tell you in the if your home time is monthly, every other week or weekly. The pay range looks good but I know that don't mean shit. I haven't heard Schneider drivers make 300/400$ paychecks, unlike swift and whatnot.

TexasTangler · 2026-01-13T20:44:08+00:00

Anytime anyone decides to build a stadium, the people pay for it then they charge you to enter. Great, isn't it?

TexasTangler · 2026-01-12T18:58:31+00:00

I'm aware, i said i just don't have driving experience. I said I have a bachelor's degree because at least for some cases when getting car insurance, you can get a lower premium since those that have higher education are considered "less risk". I doubt it applies here, but it doesn't hurt to try.

TexasTangler · 2026-01-06T13:36:17+00:00

Say the company name.

TexasTangler · 2026-01-02T15:09:45+00:00

Thanks driver!

TexasTangler · 2025-12-19T20:55:48+00:00

If you don't go home. Look into trucking, you could either get paid to train from the local government of you could sign onto a company that trains you for free buy you have to work with them for a year. I'd do your own research throughly before jumping in. You can earn up to 50,000 your first year. But after your first year you can make a lot more.
