      Thank you very much 🙏 God bless you as well, Chuckkee, and it's good to hear from you! Carter is great to have along for sure. He has been going to work with me off and on since he was around 6. Be safe out there 👍

    When I first started at UPS I did similar kind of unloading. We unloaded from drop frame trailers that had rollers in them. Then the shifter would jack the trailer all the way up so it would have an downhill incline to it. The rollers still didn't roll very well. Glad to see that everything seems to be going well. It's great to see Carter and you out together again. I bet he is really enjoying it as well as are you. Wishing you and the family all the best..... safe travel's 🙏 boyfriend.....👍🤙

    If you are looking to maintain drive time to get back to the DC, we had a trick that you may know. I was taught to get to the unload location the night before and get as close to the setup spot as possible. In the morning you can finish setting up and then get unloaded without setting off your Elog. After unloaded, do your pretrip and head out. But, if it took you 2 or 3 hrs to get unloaded, you save that time. Some drivers go on duty when they start unloading

    Hope you are liking the new gig. I remember you saying that you got paid at the end of the 3 week training program at roehl, how much was that? I want to do it but need to take money out for the time I am in training and want to know what to expect. Safe travels, man.

    I've been watching your videos for about 2 weeks now because I was interested in the Roehl training program. I have been trying to figure out what part of KY you are from and just heard you say Mount Sterling. I'm in Winchester and have been to that truck stop many times. Thanks for all the videos and especially for not taking the scriptures out. Keep on trucking boys. God Bless

    Dylan, I've been watching your Roehl videos, and from what I've gathered you appreciate what you got from them. Do you still recommend Roehl as a starter company to go with to get your CDL and experience? Also, what were your last paychecks with Roehl before you left?

      Roehl was good about it. So far, the family dollar account with us xpress has been less home time and they say their schedule isn't consistent.

      It's touch freight. A whole different ball game than no touch freight. I prefer it myself. It's minimum $1700 a week(before taxes) as long as you are on time.

      @MarcTavX it depends on where you are. Some places have no minimum. That's what I like about this company, the true-up pay. I was a regional driver for roehl transport and I worked 5 days and then off for 48 hours. I averaged around $900 a week, after taxes.

      What is the most you made with roehl after training per week. And how many hours or days did u stay away from home during the driving with a trainer phase in the beginning and how much did that part pay ?
      Thank you

      I thought truck drivers made at least 2000 or more per week minimum. I make 900 a week as a waiter... was hoping to hear about more money...

      The number of stops, trailer loads, and miles. They have something called true-up, where you make $1700 a week minimun(before taxes) as long as you are on time to your stops.
