Truckerbreakroom I love your content. I drove OTR for 5yrs, bought a truck and lost it, and currently driving city transit in Texas. I am currently more stable and happier than I have ever been driving a bus🤷🏾♂️
At New York City Transit MTA we have plenty of drivers that make well over a hundred thousand a year I made 97 and that was with minimal overtime if I want I could have made so much more
I agree about split shifts. I did NOT like that for school bus. You constantly looking at watch for when you have to return … then home later than a normal 8 hour straight shift.
I did bus driving years ago but I change to commercial truck driving I like it better I feel my company treats me good I make about 85 to 90k driving truck a year of course I do dedicated reefer with candy and ice cream myself I always made better at truck driving they both good jobs but iam more into trucks than busses one thing with trucks less responsibility unlike with busses you have passengers to worry about and they can be a pain in the ass at times sure most of time no problems but every now and then it happens
The key to trucking is getting your own truck an than you will see the money an run how you wanna run..
Yes
True that 👍🙏
Yep
Yeah but if something breaks down you gotta pay for it and not the company
Getting the right truck is key, it also helps to come in the game with a few dollars and an ownership or top company pay mindset.
I thought my co workers were more encouraging in the bus!
My trucking job at Holland was the best till Yellow bought us out!
Thank you for sharing 💪🏿
My pleasure!!
@@Cherishbarber94 ❤️
Appreciate the info, thank you sis
You’re welcome 🫶🏽
Why did you leave Greyhound? The Dot stopped you for inspection at the weight scale in Maryland.
I just got into class a truck driving with Swift. I'll be doing dryvan. As soon as I have 2 years driving it's time to be a tanker fuel driver. I'll be getting more pay, most definitely be home daily, and have weekends off.
That’s an awesome plan
Oh wow not right
@@Cherishbarber94they greyhound buses for sale
@@Cherishbarber94I whould customize a Greyhound bus
@@Cherishbarber94I like the mc 12 greyhound bus or trailways
Cool video am a truck driver already I love it
Awesome
Bus driver any time decent pay les regulation plus's Wen I used to drive Wen we pulled in to a rest place we got a free meal and vouchers plus tips as wel have a great day love the show Andy from the UK mis the buss lots
Greyhound most definitely on the last leg. From Lansing Michigan to Columbus Ohio took 24 hours plus
😮😅
See that's nothing new
I started with the buses did it for 6 years
5 years driving the city of Detroit buses
1 year at Greyhound
Did 9 months at Holland/Yellow
I work for a small truck company now I thought the bud driving was more stable and easy to rack OT
U got to be from Bal-Da-More!🙌🏽🙌🏽….love ur videos💪🏽🙌🏽
Thank youuuu 💕🫶🏽
How do u handle eating lunch on your shifts?….ive seen some bus drivers cook their food on one of those portable burners…ive seen mini crock pots…just curious to know if u prep ur lunch or u just stop and get something to eat
We have bus drivers in New York City one guy at my Depot made 179000 but he did a lot of overtime
Dang that’s crazy
So regarding ownership: for bus would it be airport shuttle, intercity coach? Is that what you call lease driver or can you outright own it?
I'm bus driver in Qatar
Good video 😊
Thank you 💕
Overall, you are going to make more as a truck driver than you will as a bus driver.
Truck driving isn’t for the faint of heart, you gotta have thick skin.
Truck driving is more risky than bus driving.
It is easier to get paid pretty well starting out as a bus driver. Trucking is all about YOUR OWN hustle. There are no freebies.
It is better to get with a smaller company than a mega carrier, because with a mega carrier you will always feel expendable. However, some mega carriers will take care of you. One comes to mind if I’m honest, and that is Schneider. They baby their drivers and we all know it. That is why some people stay regardless of pay.
It is better to go local intermodal or with a company that does shuttle work and services dedicated customers to get the most out of local trucking.
Don’t expect to make 100k as a company driver EASILY. 75K to 90K is the more realistic range and that range isn’t one every new driver reaches when starting. 45k to 60k is where a lot of new drivers are at which is why most companies don’t advertise making 70K+ your first year. Now most are posting 60K.
If you see JB Hunt posting 70K or Schneider Posting 70K, it is probably because they had a good year where the average driver made around that amount.
45K TO 50K AFTER TAXES MOVING THAT LONG ASS HEAVY TRACTOR TRAILER STATE TO STATE? DAMN THEY CHEAP ASF NICKEL & DIME THE DRIVERS, WOW 😳
What did you find harder - Greyhound testing or Truck testing ? (I have Class A w passenger but have only driven school bus. The bus testing was easier for me.). I’ve heard the Greyhound testing is INTENSE ??
it wasnt bad, i took it years ago
Dude testing for endorsements is the easy part
Yep, I have all the endorsements - just never had opportunity to hit the road in a truck (after truck school) due to caretaking.
I drove 550 more miles than my last week at Schneider and my check was only 150 more.. that’s bad right ?
City transit bus driver in the state of South Carolina only pays $16 hr I'm looking at driving either over the road or charter bus driver thanks for the information
16 AN HR DRIVING A BUS, WHY SOUTH CAROLINA PAY SO LOW? ITS A BIG VEHICLE & REQUIRES TRAINING, SOUTH CAROLINA NEED TO STEP IT UP
@@SalsHQyes they need to step up for real low paying state sad
@@SalsHQYes it's crazy I will not do that should be $20+ but it's not sad
And you definitely got to make sure that you get paid your value remember you are a CDL driver you are a professional CDL driver you have a class A or class b license you value should be at least $28 per hour minimum a lot of CDL drivers without the knowledge of growing their institutionalized like a slave with these big companies that are making millions of dollars and keeping the driver in the same position working for 63 cents per mile like make that. It is a process and a hard pill to swallow but
THE CHECKS SOME OF THE CDL A DRIVERS SHOW ON HERE FROM THE TRUCK MEGA CARRIERS IS WILD, DRIVERS OUT HERE GETTIN ABUSED
Love and respect; ❤ I love and respect truck driving : 10ys got to have some type of passion right !!! It’s the industry 👩🌾yes yes 🙌 tht industry AKA: Entity: we all know how tht goes need not explain just feel like everyone and everything is against u and really there no help or nothing soo … yes I resign from my job never to look back
Never to drive again it’s ⏱️📙📚📖it’s time too start a new chapter:::; 🎊 🎉 a new life a new me : at first I was skeptical , doubtful ,& discourage with a twist of sadness, becuz i left the industry it was all I known how to make good income 💵but not to feer it gets better : and feels good to have co - worker and also bac in Schoolz yea kno .. so ppl it’s never to late inn time I will b there but for now it’s about the journey we’ll driver Godspeed
My company seniority based and new hires have it ruff bad runs and schedules and mandatory holidays
Yup definitely wouldn’t work there
I have been at seniority company before but coming in you can get a good run sometimes
I just got weekends off 8 years later
$40 plus hourly only mad me stay
@@clarencew93 lol I might stay for that too see at this job I’m off weekends and holidays
Y'all we love this because she Our child Age
The young Trucker/bus Driver will find the real reality of work quick I had to instill that in my 31yr old the hard way it will not be handed to you easy
For real.. i am 30 man i hate work but it's just a means to an end.
I try to always save 40% of my paycheck, and live on the rest. Frugal life to retire by 50 hopefully.
If got kids your be working until retirement that's a fact
And you don't have kids
@@larrybrown7273 That's true. But i already paid off my house at 30. So half of the challenge is done. Just need $300k in assets to pay me in passive income 3-4% then ama go overseas live cheap.
Not paying for kids college or funding their non sense. Just good old parenting. Lead by example.
Y'all this young Bus Driver Queen Is the real shit period y'all please support Her
Is this local?
How much make my first year as bus driver
They get on my nerves talking about you ain’t going get no money during your 1st year 🤬 or the you have to go otr and “pay your dues”, like stfu ain’t none of that true.
😂😂😂😂😂 fr all you gotta do is mess with food service
@@Cherishbarber94exactly food service will work you crazy but you home daily and good pay.
My ex went from CDL school straight into hauling hazmat. I got my CDL and I’m going into the bus. I refused to go otr. My friend does commuter run and I’m like girl idk about all them hours in between, I’d forget i had to go back to work 😂😂😂
Them Facebook groups work my nerves, I ended up starting my own for black women drivers. It’s kinda dead right now 😂 but it doesn’t have all the drama and negativity.
The reason they say that is because most insurance companies want insure you unless you have 2 years under your belt..
@MsDani_HazmatChick naa fr he tricked me I love the job driving the bus but that in between I don't like it like give me something in the middle that's why yall not keeping drivers I found a line run company though I take my drug test tomorrow
@@Cherishbarber94 congrats on the new job!!
so question why did you leave the Hound dog?
They started being cheap on who they booked the hotels through. They wouldn't boom until we got there and it was taking hours to get a room.
What state you from?
Md
@Transporttoprofit MD❤ .... I live in Pa... I love OCMD.
Do they have forward facing camera in your bus 🚌?
🙋🏻♂️✨✨✨✨😀💕

Do bus companies hire people with old felonies? No pedo shyt , gunz , or violence.
Yes just depends on the offense and the company
Love this content you be coming with real life experience and honesty🩷
Thank you boo💕🥰
