I know Schneider hires for their tanker division right out of cdl school, they have an extensive training period Edit: just spoke to a recruiter from Schneider at school yesterday: they currently need 3 months of experience for tanker and it only out of New Jersey, so you would have to commute their every 2-3 weeks. And with no experience fresh out of school they’re only hiring team drivers, but they have a team match program and you could do that or work anywhere else for three months and then transfer into Schneider tanker. And if u start with Schneider that’s 3 extra months of tuition reimbursement from them (up to $7000 in $200 a month installments)

Well drilling tends to pay slightly less than geotech. And I don't know what piledriver operators make.

Also, you can transfer to any JetBlue maintenance base you want after 1 year as long as there’s an opening. But at Boston and New York City you will move up in seniority the fastest.

@@jerrys27 I take care of boilers, chillers, and air handlers at a plant make sure they’re all running properly
I work for a company that does wheel to wheel services. So filling fleets of trucks. Our drivers range from 28-38$/hr to give some of yall and idea
Can you give us the name of the Company at least.
Thats horrible this is why I'm home everyday bring home 2.5k every week 4 days on 3 days off, benefits, 6 weeks vacation and 10 paid holidays doing flatbed and hazmat work
I see gas haulers at the gas station filling the tanks. They do look like they have it chill. But I feel like I would stress out too much at an overcrowded or small gas station
No stress at all, just set uo your cones if someone decides to run thru them it's on them, as long as the driver does his part by the book he isn't worried about anything.
As a gas hauler way back to 78 have I got story's to tell. Oh winters with snowed over ground fill cap, Iced over hilly roads ,IN the rain& fog , a car load of drunk teens driving into a gas station lot with my hoses out & running over them while dumping gas , over filling the storage tanks with the gas filling the st. Gutters brakes on the trailer smoking hot on inter state fire.

Out of Tucson with UPT average pay about 19 a hour...the rack you pull out of makes a big difference too
This job is not for weak mind people … your always at work n on the road .. you get to go home but never have time … the money is there ..
Apply at KAG. I heard they were Union, and work only 40 hours a week. Highest paid wages from what I understand.
They start you at 31 to train and then they pay 35/hr for day shift and 36/hr for Night Shift. That’s in the LA area if you work out in the inland empire they only pay 32/ hr
That ain’t shit in LA

I quit trucking and opened up a hybrid and electric vehicle repair shop. I can make in a few hours what an average trucker make in a whole week. Stay in school and work for yourself using education. For example I make 3K dollars to swap an EV battery and it only takes me about 2-3 hours to complete with my strong electrical diagnostic skill. I can make even more than thar. For example I can diagnose a hybrid Vehiclle problem in 15 minutes fix it in a few minutes and make over a thousand dollars or more. I was a trucker. Trucking job is long hours, dangerous, and lonely job. Glad I do not have to do that anymore after 20 years

Drove TT tanker for 25 years . Was a hard job to get back in the day , now no experience required. Get a class A with doubles and hazmat. Then get a TWIC . Then you are good to go. Start with whoever will hire you , put some time in. Then move to a company that is better .

Damn right that's what I'm doing right now, it's very hard
Facts been doing food delivery for 2 years shits too much for the pay
Food service here shits not bad if u In shape i be slinging these cases for 34 an hr
This is what i want to do, I'm really motivated on getting my cdl and all the extra endorsements. But after i would have no experience so after i get my cdl i will have to find a job right away
I got mine two months ago. I had a hard time finding a job because I wanted to do local and mostly everything around me required 1-2 years of experience. I ended up getting a job driving ready mixers the pay is not the best but they offer good insurance and a lot of overtime. Incase you do get it and you need a job I recommend driving a ready mixer if you want to stay local and want decent money.
@jonathanpineda6759 thanks for the advice!! I'm still working on my cdl, im having my air brake knowledge test tomorrow, i really appreciate your advice, I'm so sat that my current job doesn't get me to where i want to go financially, truck driving is my hope and i wish you the best.

Don’t believe everything they said I’m a truck driver 23 years and everybody lie of how much they made.
The trucking industry is an average job that pay around 50k to 80k a year. Is not like a glamorous job that you getting super rich. It pay the bills that’s all. I hauled fuel for 3 years not only is very risky job and you have to be in compliance with everything DOT regulations in my experience the risk and stress wasn’t worth it for the money I used to make
If youre making 80k per year after 4 to five years in trucking, youre doing it wrong.
I love your videos man. From your interviews, have you found any tanker companies in Southern California that hire right out of trucking school with zero experience?
You don’t need 2 years experience to work at superior 😂 they will hire you if you have a pulse at that company.

Aircraft Technician pay is much higher. I work for JetBlue and make $40.75 an hour at year 2 (year 1 is $39) and will top out at $58.50 after 7 years. The 401k is also insane I put in 5% of my paycheck and get matched 260%. Best 401k in the country by far. Plus you accrue 5 weeks of PTO through the course of your first year.
And you will be working night shift. Lets not leave that part out. Aircraft Mechanic Delta Airlines.
@@The442028 yes but depending on your location you can be on days within 5 years or less. I work in Boston and got hired in May of 2022. Now I’m just about halfway up the seniority list. In 5 (or maybe less) years I’ll be set as far as days off.
@@ChanTheMan1996how did you become one? Do they have trade school where you can begin right away and get paid?
@@NorthlandDWJ google Aircraft Maintenance programs near you and pick a trade school to go to. It’s a 2 year program. And in Boston at JetBlue you can start any time as a full time Aircraft Support technician doing cabin work for $24 an hour starting out and as soon as you get your A&P you become a regular technician for $38.25 an hour with a top out of $58.50 an hour. The benefits are insane. You get 5 weeks of PTO after one year accruing 3.84 hours per week as soon as you start and you get 260% matched on your 5% contribution into your 401k. I have 19k in my 401k after 1 year and 3 months. Not sure if that applies to AST’s though. But still a great career path. Also, you can transfer to any JetBlue maintenance base you want after 1 year as long as there’s an opening. But at Boston and New York City you will move up in seniority the fastest.
@@ChanTheMan1996where did you study, and recommendations? Is it hard work or just tedious? That's fantastic starting pay and benefits.
Damn and I’m a cop risking my ass for 25 bucks 😂 barber/ trucking school here I come
Probably more liability being a cop than this job. lol The way the economy is going, even in small towns.. 25/hr isn't enough. Cost more than that to live. Much more to keep a family.
😂 I feel that
Ran into a superior driver myself and did say something like this too. The guy I talked to was an older guy.
This dude should probably make a lot more than he is.
as with a lot of people in so many different industries across the world. Most people don't really get paid what they are worth as businesses have to make more profit than the last year every year.
They work 12 hour days, time and 1/2 after 8 with OT. These guys at Superior are making $120,000 or more a year.
$34 an hour is pretty fuckin good money
@ChickentNug that really depends where you live..
@@Sourwhatup fair
christ where i live the class a equivalent cost like 10k to get, 39/hr is like barely enough
You need minimum two years experience in safety cone placement enforcement.

I am training to be an MRI technologist. Highest pay is 55-75 an hour. Highest I have seen was 132 an hour.
How long does it take to get certified or licensed? What major you need or certificate?
@@J__7777 2 years to get licensed. You have to go to a MRI school which happens to be scarce in most states. If you dont have a program in your state. you might have to do xray first then cross train into CT and then they might let you take an MRI position after that but you would still have to pass the AART exam.

You’ll work 14-16 hours a day 6-7 days a week all weather conditions and if you’re the new guy you’ll be working nights until a day shift job opens up
@Donjuan-ly3tdPretty sure thats DOT regulations, which is federal. Ive never worked more than 14 in 5 days. Except for the 2 hour extension a few times because of weather.
@Donjuan-ly3td Yeah, that's what I was saying. The only exception is the personal exemption which allows to 2 hours of driving after your 14 if you still have drive time left.
But yeah, you're right.
@@chrisl6989 Oregon California and Texas I know allow 16 hour shift if you stay in that state. 12 hours drive, 16 on duty, 80 for the week. That’s what I run pulling 12 axle lowboy in Oregon
