    Hi Anthony, I am a Beverly Hills cop fan. Also, I fell asleep a couple nights ago trying to watch Beverly Hills cop 4. but I can surely say, without fail, Beverly Hills cop 1 is my favorite one. when I get a chance, I will have to start number 4 over again, and continue watching it, be safe out there, God bless you, and your family. My name is Terrell Simmons out of Southern California. I’m a Line-Haul a driver for ABF Freight, i’ve been watching your videos, for a couple of years now, keep up the good work.

    I been driving for six years and I’ve only gone to Puerto Rico once. In general in my ten years of adult life. I haven’t done shit. It’s probably why I was so miserable with trucking. You definitely need to disconnect. Currently I just go to the beach any chance I get to disconnect. Life is about balance and if you don’t got it. Your life will be out of wack

Man funny thing is gonna be getting used to the job again after so much time off. I found the last time I took vacation I was slow AF and had long days the first 2-3 days after coming back. Gotta slip seat tomorrow since my rigs going north to try and fix the power (acceleration) issues it's had lately, After so much time driving the Mack at reduced power it's going to be a weird day.
    I like the vibe I'm in at Sysco though. Plan on chillin here a bit.

      Actually, it’s been a lot better than I thought. Initially, I was very skeptical about how a floor loaded 50 would be loaded. My loads have been good for the most part. Probably because they have more room to work with..

    I got a question unrelated to the video. What is like taking a road test being new to trucking? I have an interview with Sysco on Wednesday. I got my CDL last month and haven’t been driving or anything since I passed. Worried that I’m not going to get hired on if I don’t do everything flawlessly. What all does the driving test consist of and how harshly do they judge if you are just getting into the industry? Grateful for any feedback, and stay safe out there🤝🏾

    • @imanthonytv
      @imanthonytv  15 днів тому +1

      Companies basically want to make sure you can drive the truck. It’s typically just driving around the block or short distances. They will most likely have you back up as well. If you’re an experienced driver out of school, I’m sure they will judge you accordingly based on your experience level. Good luck 👍🏾

    Hi Anthony. I don’t know if you would read this or not but I need some guidance. I was a lead driver at a food company I had one accident and it caused me my job. I was on salary making good money. Anyways I have this new job completely different from food service. It’s a construction trucking job. I get payed 23an hour plus overtime but I really don’t like this job and I’m driving a class b Truck. It’s not the pay that I complain it’s more about the job. I love moving boxes and working hard. In this job I just sit in the truck all day. I really don’t like the new job I have. The only reason why I haven’t gone back to the food service game is because I’m worried I may get into another accident. I have an interview with Sysco on the 22nd of July. I’m pretty sure I’m not gonna have a set route which makes more likely to get into an accident. What should I do? Thank you!!!

      What up bro..Every case has a label with all of the customer info as well as item description. Cases also have the stop number on the label so every case is loaded in sequence or in order. The information is also in your scanner. If a label is missing then that case will show on your scanner as basically not scanned which lets you know what item to look for. Sometimes the item might be buried or not on the truck at all in which case you would issue a credit to that customer. It’s pretty simple.

      Werner pays 1.10 cents per mile and 260$ to unload the trailer so I can get 900 miles per week and three trailers so it's about 1800 -2200 per week pay but the swift drivers get payed slightly more I don't know why but.
