    I’ve been at us foods in Phoenix for 6 months now. It’s my first cdl job straight out of trucking school. You have to like what you do. The job is very simple but can be rough if your not a organized person. We are also union down here they just brought in some brand new tractors too. We blessed either way getting a cdl is one of the best decisions I ever made.

    Rock on, dude! I miss the food service side of trucking. It was the most fun I ever had and most money ever made. Unfortunately my back and knees can no longer handle that type of work. If that wasn't the case and the company I worked for was still as awesome as when I started in 2009, I'd still be there. That company was UNFI.

      @@Duh_wettest95 As long as you're in shape and embrace the suck, you'll be fine. Trucking schools often teach students to refuse to back in gnarly situations. In food service, you're going to HAVE to back in gnarly situations on a regular basis. Once you get over the anxiety of it and manage to do it without banging into things other than the dock, you're going to go into new places with a load of confidence. Stay calm, don't panic, and kill rude clerks with kindness.
      To answer your question. It's just as demanding since the freight is batch picked. Batch picking the volume UNFI deals with was the start of their turnover troubles. When I started, pallets were all one customer. It made stops 15mins tops rather than 45mins or longer. Whole Foods always took a little time due to the amount any given store receives.

      some dudes have families. If you have a family and you're staying away weeks at a time you are a clown. I don't care how open your family seems to it they would much rather prefer you home. Even if they say otherwise. If your family legit is okay with you being away weeks at a time something is fundamentally wrong with your family.
      Now if you're single and childless I tell dudes all the time go for it. Hell I ask them what they're waiting for. It's a great way to 'see' the country(because you'll be too busy running to do more than see) but mostly it's a great way to stack cash without having to worry about having to split it with a wife or even pay rent if you run all the time. Win win situation.

The amount of money I saved was insane! A bad week was still a net profit compared to the dudes who had an actual physical address to go back to for their home time. Those who lived on the road while having a family were often the ones whose kids and spouse were well acquainted with "Uncle Ronny."

      They are labeled by stop and the labels are usually color coded so you know the difference between frozen, refrigerated and dry product. But to maximize the cube space in the trailer 1 pallet has multiple stops. The worst part is you get to a customer and they order 6 frozen pieces and it's all the way on the bottom of the pallet that touching the ceiling and has stops 1-8 on it. Trust me, you'll be cussing everybody when you get into a situation like that 😂
