  • I’ve been hearing this a lot, but I think having a CDL is worth it now being a trucker I would need more experience to really give my input, but this is just reasons why I believe trucking would be trash.

    Trucking is not trash if you’re a company driver, it’s not as good as it was compared to the pay in 2009 but it’s good money especially with the right endorsements.

    I'm a local driver and I can tell you I personally would never do OTR. It's just a different lifestyle. I enjoy being home every night, off weekends, holidays etc. With that said there are companies that work the shit out of local drivers as well. I'm fortunate to work for who I work for.

    It’s garbage and slave work, lot of guys think they’re off duty during their 10 and 34 hour off but they’re not. All they are then is a security guard. Pay sucks for 24/7 work

    CDL is worth it, my girls friends mom is single and drives trucks. She has her own RV, house and so on. Im currently doing my CDL A took a $5500 loand out and the owner of thr driving school through in the hazmart training for free. I use to do security and be out a month. Made $20K in month but dangerou work and was even offered to go to africa for security. Cdl a dangerous too but good money all the time and stable.

    OTR sucks. I used to do 25 days out, 4 days home. Garbage schedule. Even 12 days out sucked. Go local. You’ll enjoy life and still make good money. Try food service if you need to make more money.

    3rd generation driver and 10yrs experience myself local and regional is where it’s at honestly for money and time home. Best money out there right now is local fuel delivery. Buddy of mine does that and makes $90k per year but the hazmat endorsement can be a pain to keep up with and cost a couple hundred dollars to renew it every 5yrs or so

    • @rydewithty
      @rydewithty  Před 3 měsíci

      Staying local is definitely part of my plan. I also came into this wanting to get my hazmat and tankers to haul fuel definitely cannot see myself going over the road. I just don’t see it being worth it.

      It’s very easy to lose a family even if you have an understanding with someone @ the start unless they are willing to come with you and you have no kids 🤔 doooooo itttt get your endorsements at the very least you’ll protect yourself.
