    As a former truck driver I can say this is 90% accurate, the only thing it's missing is the disrespect from dispatchers.

      I liked most of my dispatch because they helped me a lot dealing and negotiating with asshole brokers , shippers and receivers, lucky me I guess but I hate almost all receivers especially when they take 8 hr to unload 😅

      ​​@pouetesIf you're going to work in a developed country like the US with really high wages for truck drivers, then it's probably worth at least trying for a year or two. You will definitely save up a lot of money and then you'll be able to move on with your life working other jobs whenever you feel like quitting driving so much👌.

    I'm a driver and everything is so accurate. All he missed was dispatch giving you the wrong pickup number and dodging your calls, the load being overweight and having to tell them to pull some stuff off, forcing them to rework the paperwork which for some reason takes hours, having to split your 10 hr sleeper in two parts which fucks your sleep schedule.

      ​@mackeejack6731 extremely well is a relative phrase. And truck drivers span different industries, different competency levels, some drive their own equipment, some unload their own trucks, some haul dangerous chemicals and have to be up to date on every federal law and safety procedure pertaining to the chemical. Some just want to drive and nothing else. My point is that truck drivers span the gamut of pay rates. Some are overworked and under payed. Some are payed well and work 60 to 70 hours a week, every week. If you live in your truck, it's not just a job, it's a lifestyle. One thing it isn't, It isn't sun shine and lollipops, I'll tell you that much.

I think the longest one was that Mapuche driver who picked me up at the outskirts of La Serena and he dropped me off nearby Antofagasta in Chile. I have so many memories with truck drivers.

    When I was barely an adult I considered being a trucker for a long time. I thought my temperament would go well with it. I loved driving long road trip, being alone, with music etc etc. It took me a while to realize that doing it for more than a few months, or maybe even weeks, would end up being miserable. It's sad to realize that almost every job, however attractive, all end up being boring or miserable or have too much cons.

    I really think this man is highlighting the very important roles played by the people who we, do not care about. The world would break down without delivery drivers, minimum wage workers and the most importantly truck drivers. Their hardships throughout the world are relatively unknown and most of the population takes them for granted. We should really appreciate the hard work they do and all the mental and physical abuse they put themselves through, just so we people can have soda made in another state.
    His channel is enjoyable using Wojak, but also has this high deep meaning.

    I remember back in 2020, Amazon was really pushing ads for truck drivers at the time. I remember contemplating too whether or not I should become one- but after watching a couple of vlogs about trucking I figured it wasn't for me. It was like the military in the sense that you are away from ur family, but now ur even more isolated and alone traveling around the country. From there I just decided to work at the warehouse, but I always respected and appreciated the truck drivers that would come in to drop off their trailers, knowing the difficult yet important role they do for our global supply chain.

    I empathise with anyone that has to endure long hours, working alone out on the road, having to deal with unpleasant people at almost every turn. My own job is quite similar in a way as I'm also out on the roads on foot, in all weathers, covering large distances and dealing with the general public.
    Sometimes it can be an extremely bleak and lonely existence, but we still perservere to get the job done.
