    I'm a couple years older than you and grew up around trucks with my dad being a driver, and my family being in business in the industry for 75 years. I learnt how to back up semis, drop trailers, float a road ranger, etc, before i could get a car licence and all I wanted to do was drive trucks.
    I was supposed to get my HR, but I lost my job at the start of the pandemic and my old man retired so i lost my passion for trucks.
    I'm still in the industry as a forklift driver, and I've been watching alot of truck vids on UA-cam this last year including yours.
    I regret not getting it when i could as i would be on a MC licence by now, but I am starting to get my spark back.
    Hopefully some time in the new year I'll be in a rigid.

    Hey mate! I’m 22 years old with a similar background as yourself. Got my HR when 18 then got my MC after a year of holding my HR. So yeah about 3 years of MC license. The only thing is that the company I work for don’t have any. (As it’s a Removalist company) So I’ve been driving & reversing semis, and dog trailers. I’m looking to get into a B-Double job and explore into the transport. you reckon someone or a few would give me a crack? Or would that be an issue?
    I also recommend getting a face cam. Like a pov. If I ever or anyone go searching for truck vids it’s the povs that get the views. lol only if you want to

    Are you still paid for downtime at yards waiting? I've heard some employers don't. If you're waiting for a slot, is that only an issue if you're an owner driver where you're paid for the run, not the time 'on' that run?

    • @noahlykop
