Thanks!!!!

$20.40/hr. We only get hourly pay for breakdowns and late loads.

I’ll look into that. Thanks for the recommendation!

Oh yeah! Stay within your comfort zone bro. I stack smaller depending on my energy level. More tired = more mistakes.

Depends on the day and workload. Avg time 4 days out the week is 2pm. That one long day I’m done by 4. I work avg 9.5-11.5hrs a day.

😆😆😆

Yeah that day I had 2 dock stops. Still had to break down pallets and roll it into 3-5 different areas either way.. Got to appreciate that!!!

Ok yeah that’s the killer the different spots but u made it work 💪🏾

We get multiple guys coming from Pepsi and Coke. Get your six month experience and then make your way here! It’ll be a pay bump too.😉

Also, I run the same route each day. The customers and I have built a relationship and they trust that I scanned and delivered everything that shipped. If they’re missing anything or something is damage, I just communicate with them. But I pretty much just drop it off and leave.

I heard that was hard 👀

@@kickbackkris392 haha yeah , it’s definitely hard work and a lot of responsibility, but I have been moving for some years so I already had a lot of experience with that. I also hire help on the jobs 💯

No we don’t have assigned tractors. It’s a work in progress

I swear I say some dumb ish out here 😭

You’ll fit right in! Depending on who you work for it could be strictly nights. Other companies also go by seniority and with that, you can choose the route you want based off of dispatch time if that’s what’s important to you.

@kickbackkris392 Are the times at each stop strict? Allotted time at each stop fairly reasonable? Micromanaging? I currently run on my own fairly strict schedule, arriving at customers about the same time and day and ending my 7200ish mile run in 12 nights consistently outside of anything happening or if my control with out hearing from my company.

@@thehomeless_trucker the delivery window is pretty reasonable. For example customer X delivery window is 5am-11am. As long as you arrive within that time, you’re good. Early morning night drops could be 12am-6am. Your performance is judge by your delivery time and scan rate. As long as you do the job correctly, you’ll maintain the minimum % which is around 98% for the week. Missing time windows will lower your % and not scanning every product will also lower your %. Management can be strict about the %. My management team are very good at figuring out a solution. For example, every Tuesday I get to this one customer at 5:30am and a rough morning. 5am on a good morning. Their time window is 6am-9am. If I’m consistently getting there before 6am, management will rearrange the route or contact the customer and stretch that time window. I made a short video on actual delivery time vs planned delivery time. I think it’s reasonable. My computer says I’m suppose to take 50min at this stop, but I actually took 45min. It really depends on load quality, but the time isn’t far off. I’m always ahead of schedule everyday and I don’t run during delivery.

@@thehomeless_trucker if you wanted to be OTR in food service, McLane has a division where you go to 7-11. Sygma delivers to Wendy’s. Gordon Foods has a regional division too. Sysco, US Foods, and Performance Food Group have home daily routes. Chik-fil-A and Dunkin are strictly nights. Some work weekends, but my US Foods division doesn’t work weekends at all. Those are just the big name companies.

I’ve done 10 bags of 50lb rice bags too and I must admit it was HEAVY! Doesn’t help when your handtruck tire goes nearly flat 😅 good thing you know your limit buddy. I was surely testing mine. I wouldn’t do it again.

​@@kickbackkris392when one has less air than the other and wants to go one direction with a heavy load

@@donking1503 yeah that sucks! I’d really have to put air in the tires at that same stop

Back on my grind 🫡

Gotta sleep comfortably 😆

Appreciate that 👊🏾

I’m glad it was helpful. Best of luck to you!

Aim for the corner!

Yes indeed it was! I was home every weekend for 34 hours on the dot unless I asked for more time.

@@kickbackkris392 thank you

That sounds like a good pre-retirement job! I used to do something like that for Lidl Grocery Store. It sucks because it was night shift. We loaded our trailers, head out to 2-3 stores, unload and done. My 2-3 days off were on the weekdays. I left because of the schedule. Are you working night shift? And who do you work for?

@@kickbackkris392 oh nice! I work for hyvee Out of ankeny, Iowa. We have 3 shift you can work. Everyone likes different ones but I do the early pm shift. They call me at noon and I look on a website and tell them what route I want for the day. It’s all based on seniority so as long as nobody above me took the route, it’s all mine. It’s a cool system. But usually I start my route at 2pm and I’m usually off around 1am or 2am. I love it because I can actually sleep at night time right when I go home. I used to be on the opposite schedule where I’d start at 2am and get home at like 2pm but I could never fall asleep when the sun was still out.

@@kickbackkris392 and yes the days off suck until you’ve been here for a hot minute. I’ve been here 6 years and the best I can get right now is Sunday, Monday, Tuesday as my days off lmao. The old heads who never seem retire are getting Thursday Friday Saturday off…

@@jordan2735 oh man I’d be happy with your schedule too! Especially the 2pm dispatch. I don’t know of anything like that here in North Carolina. Heck I’d be happy working 4 days a week with us foods lol. My body could use a break.

I don’t feel like I have to rush. My steady pace actually meets the time expectation for each stop. Our route delivery time ranges like 9-12 hours per day. So unless I was stuck in heavy traffic or I have plans to be somewhere after work, I don’t bother picking up the pace. We’re not hourly pay so it’s totally up to you if you want to run every chance you get so you can get off earlier.

Depends on the day, I can have 7 hours or 2 hours left on my 14hr clock.

What’s that life like?

Thank you sir!

My dawg @taythelocaltrucker already made a video on that. We work out the same yard. Here’s a link to his video. If that doesn’t work just search his channel and look out for “What is component pay?” Appreciate you my man 👊🏾 ua-cam.com/video/R6-kTJCaGRQ/v-deo.htmlsi=k6UxsrZkeuOpQE4q

Give us the deets 👀

Yes sir. We have guys in their 50s and 60s working here. But understand that they’ve been doing this for over 20 years. There body is accustomed to the labor involved. You’re right on target with not being in food service shape. I’ve trained guys who are gym rats and they’re in shape for the gym. They’re not in shape for food service. It’s a different workout. I’ve trained multiple guys in their 50s who eventually quit either their first day or first month. Same with 20 year olds. 😂 I still encourage you to try it if the pros outweigh the cons. Thanks for your comment!

👊🏾 respect bro 👊🏾

You’re right about that! I try not to twist in an awkward angle too much 😅

They’re chicken thighs

Yup. We call it component pay. It consists of mileage, cases, stops, and tenure. No matter how long I take, the pay is the same.

@@kickbackkris392 thanks big dawg i appreciate it

@@betogarcia9823 no problem! Just know some food service company pay hourly and some pay component. Depends on the division and state.

@@kickbackkris392 whats your cases count, mileage and stop? bi/weekly pay like?

@@leepialong anywhere from 500-1,600 cases, 78-235 miles, 7-15 stops, and average weekly 2k

Still sore to this day! 😅

@@kickbackkris392 i believe it 🤣

What did I do that’s potentially career ending?

You busted your ass but corporate starts hating when they see someone potentially making other income streams as hr manager for another food service company in Houston I’ve seen it multiple times great work just cross your t’s when on video they could get for -using that kind of blade - profane language -scanning cases off of dolly depending on companies work habit policies

But great video I’m a fan I was previously a driver keep hustling driver

@@halfpint1061 I see what you mean. Thanks for the heads up bro 👊🏾

I like the AM start time. My dispatch ranges from 2am-4am and I finish anywhere from 11:30am-4pm

Small daddy stacks? 😆

Nah little bish stacks!!
