Thanks for letting us know about the issue. Definitely a good reason to keep a very close eye at all of the details. Good business is driven by good data. The numbers never lie!! STAY SAFE!
Love your videos, they pretty much always have information that I need seeing that I am hoping to join the Prime family later this fall as soon as I can get my CDL permit up here in Maine. Keep up the good work( videos). Thank you
You’re very welcome! We will see you on the road soon enough!!
JL!!!! What’s good! I love the t shirt man… great job on knowing your numbers and what you need to make the truck run successful! Your gonna be a great future super trucker!! We need more of you out here! Can’t wait for the next video! Be safe!
Thanks so much!! This industry is what you make of it. You either learn as much as you can while you can. Or just do enough to get by.
I really appreciate you taking the time to shed some insight into your decision. I'm about to complete my 1st lease with Prime in October. I run hard and always try to have my eyes open to learn and gather more knowledge about what goes on in my specific circumstance. I see you as a very level headed and logical thinker. Not one to fly off the handle easily if you will. So I'm very curious as to what motivated your decision to leave Prime. Looking forward to understanding more about your experience. Thank in advance. You create good content, hats off to ya!
Thanks so much! Obviously im a bit behind on comments and content. But im catching up on it now!
Good for you for standing up for Yourself. I like when you tell your supervisor or manager that this or that is going on. And your not cool with it. Then when you leave they can’t understand what’s the problem. They know what they’re doing. Just playing games.
I know it’s not all of them but I agree. Sometimes it feels intentional.
@@johnsonslogic This problem is not just a transportation industry problem. Happens to all trades.
can you please make video on how you collect data and make spreadsheets?
Hey bro im so glad you had the determanation to stand up for yourself plus the ammunition to bakk it up....great job
Thanks so much! Me too lol
Wassup good brother salute to you on ya videos and information is always great and no matter the situation u stay up beat and speak very well again salute and congrats on all ya success and stay safe
I really appreciate that.
I almost came to prime and I'm so glad I didn't. One of my concerns (and I was justified) was buying a truck from a company who totally controlled by success or failure by deciding which loads I pull. No thanks. If I fail it will be no one's fault but mine. I can and will pick my own loads from EVERY load that is available to that company. You just made the best decision you could have possibly made and I'm not sure you realize it yet lol.
Now that I’m here with Landstar I understand. Don’t get me wrong though I made good money at Prime for me to be happy. Just hated that lack of control.
Keep the content rolling bro!
Thanks bro! I’m in town for the rest of this week. what’s your schedule like?
Excellent video, Prime lost a damn good man, but they actually did you a favor when you look at where you currently are in Trucking. Call brother Kinley back, he is lonely out there on the road without Danielle 😂😂
Yeah I’ll call him sometime today. Lol
That was a sad story bro . How all is well on your next adventure with land star. The only thing I know about Landstar is by watching Chasing Hamilton on RUclips
I watch him too!
@@johnsonslogic yo I’m in Prime Inc doing TNT 🙂
Great video
When I was on advance fleet it started great but started slowing down sales treated my truck like one of their company trucks so I canceled my contract with them. Don't get me wrong they are a lot of good people
I agree with you. I don’t hate Prime. I just know that it was no longer a good fit for me.
How can i choose a fleet manager or are they assigned to you? I going lease once done with TNT.
They are assigned to you. If your trainer is lease. You will have the same one.
Thank you, stay bless
I've been out of that loop for so long I didn't even know they refer to dispatchers as fleet manager that's a glorified term 😆 if I'm correct in that assessment
It will make sense in the part 2 video!
Did you drive a lightweight truck as a solo company driver?
No I had a condo
How long does it take to lease on w Prime, how long do u have to be there for?
Depends if you have prior OTR experience (will need to talk with a recruiter) But when I left you could complete training and go straight to lease. I don't know if its changed or not.
So would you have stayed on as company had you know what you know now?
No. I would have followed the same path.
2nd up in this b.
You don't work there anymore you don't need his permission to mention his name and telling your life mention his name and telling your life story.
So all of a sudden $10k per week? Do you believe it was Favoritism?
I can’t speak on favoritism. But it did strike me as odd.
@@johnsonslogic yeah, I get that. However, if all of a sudden after a group meeting you're earning comparable revenue then he/she knows what to do they just weren't doing it. Now that opens the door to ...other "problems" such as company drivers vs. Lease/owner loads.. Smh...a good reputation is something that takes years to build and one individual can destroy it in moments. It's a shame but good to know.
What software of speed sheets you you use
I'm thinking of going there but eventually want to own my own truck.
At the moment they have the program suspended. But there was an option to lease purchase in which you could own the truck at the end!
Hey Travis!! LoL
Where did you start at Pa or MO
Am currently in PA waiting to get my TNT
I started in MO
Its extremely difficult to run a successful business when you are only privy to limited information. Landstar does a way better job. Still, their are certain things about accessorial pay that even they leave you in the dark about.
I haven’t seen anything like that. I’ve gotten everything I’ve negotiated for so far.
@@johnsonslogic Give it time my brother... give it time.😎
@@nattydreadlocks1973 , Put Me On Game Bout Prime Bro. Bc Another Driver Told Me , " Prime Witholds ' Certain ' Info Unless You Ask About It. They Also Lie About Freight Availability."
I Used To Work There.
But you're still exclusive to Landstar freight...
@@armandbroxton1879 Yes. I am exclusive. Still... It's not the worst situation but like most, there is room for improvement.
🤣🤣🤣@ Travis
Prime home time sucks. Cause tha high truck Payments 6 to 8 training 1 to 4 k solo
First🤟🏼🤟🏼
Bron is well liked by many drivers. Nice to hear you liked your company FM... So 2 out of 3 isn't bad. Sorry u have those bad feelings. Management seems to have tried to help you. I wish you the best of luck.
They did. I really commend them for it. But like I said it just left a sour taste in my mouth that just festered and I couldn’t let it go. Hope you are well and safe!
Bron is a great person to work with.
Miss you
Miss you! 💜
🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸
Stay up
Always!
Why u only got one long sleeve?🤣
Lol. It's my sun sleeve. Protects my arm from burning and getting darker while the sun is up.
@@johnsonslogic never heard of that lol. Decent idea so I ain’t got one burnt arm
He really misses Prime 😢
I do. Not gonna lie.
Bron is super kool his my FM I'm solo making great money 💰 🤑 💸
Loved Bron tell him I said Ross from truck 239000 says hello!
It's crazy you keep using this word fleet manager. The manager. The correct term is dispatcher and that person works for you and that person works for you you don't work for him or her or her.. The real difference is he probably difference is he probably tipped the dispatcher the dispatcher and gave them a little bit of extra money. Or through them a pizza party every week or so something.
Like you said it’s all word play. But the reason we use that term in my opinion will make sense on part 2.
Dude said “let me see” like an insecure girlfriend 😂😂😂
🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣 facts
This video could have taken less than 5 min. GET TO THE POINT.
I can’t. That’s not how I converse.
