It can be a stressful job. At national beef. The lots are dirt old landfill. Lots of voids under the top layer. Parked one Saturday night less then a pack of cigarettes wide on each side.
Would like to get off the road and get a yard jockey job. Am 61 yrs old with 33 + yrs OTR. Would like to sell my truck and pursue that somewhere. Curious where you are at?
@@saidyahya7184 62 now. Yes, trucking sucks, new truck engines are crap, shop labor rates are ridiculous and usually several days wait to even get in. Sold the truck, playing company driver again for a short time putting half my salary into Roth 401k to replenish what I drained from my IRA then after a few years retiring and not looking back at this deteriorating profession.
The proper job title is Yard Hostler. A lot of time the hostler is an older driver who has tired of the road or lost his license or cant pass the DMV physical or wants to go home each night. !
Need to get that back up alarm fixed

Tip: You don't have to get off a check if a trailer is loaded,just get up under it and you could tell if it's empty or loaded. F**k all that walking..

Welp. Guess i’m blind
The proper job title is Yard Hostler. A lot of time the hostler is an older driver
who has tired of the road or lost his license or cant pass the DMV physical
or wants to go home each night.

Everyone is hiring you just need to find a job that fits you
@@BigDTrucker you have any company’s that are good yard hockey
@user-kb5ed5oj9v I'm in Wisconsin you just gotta look on like indeed for places hiring
Kansas national beef in liberal. They don’t even require a drivers license. The yards are so over packed it is insane how tight the holes are.
I’m a class A yard hostler and we work with tablet more easier and faster..
I wouldn't be surprised this yard is a cluster fuck
Yea, we use tablets at my job. Every once in a while I gotta search for a trailer.
At my job we also use tablets. But we have electric yard trucks. They suck..
How much do you get paid or do mark hostler's get paid? never heard of this job until right now.
