Owning a small trucking company in Middle Tennessee I can relate. I have military contracts moving equipment to and from Ft Campbell, Ky Arnold AFB, Ft Bragg, NC his all hands on deck is dead on. Moving 5 M1 Abrams tanks to Mobile Al to be loaded onto a ship is a job that takes 20 ppl to coordinate. And don't even start me on the permits and the cost of police escorts.
I once worked for a guy like Jon, and I learnt a lot. He might be a bit hard on his drivers, but but he has the best, and makes them better. He does have a lot of respect and trust in his drivers, and he shows it when the job is done. There should be a lot more bosses like him
Fantastic John, I have following you for a while, I am very impressed in the way you run your business. I am a trucky from Brisbane back in the 80’s, now in NZ,still driving truck trailers and semi’s at 80yrs. I would to catch up with you one day in the near future,next year I will be over in Queensland
Myself and a lot of others think a pay rise would have been a lot more appreciated than a few laps in a go kart !! Well done boys ! an extremely difficult job well executed !!!
That boss is annoying. Running his mouth non stop. All he's worried about is his reputation not the workers reputation, he keeps saying his reputation. Just annoying.
But the drivers didn’t have multi millions of dollars on gear etc resting on the performance and completion of the contract. Once you understand that a failed contract can make or break a company then you are qualified to comment such garbage.
This guy is a legend hes just straight to the point r u upset because he didnt hold there hand and hug them while explaining things hes a true aussie says it how it is theres billions of dollars at stake with the stuff he hauls plus his machines are crazy good big bucks.
God people are so soft these days. You know why he's worried about his reputation? Because it's his reputation on the line. If it all goes wrong....who are the people paying going to blame? The owner. He shoulders all the responsibility, and possible collapse of his company if there is a mistake made. He's putting those guys in very well paid jobs. But yeah.....he's 'annoying'. Get a grip.
I know exactly what he's asking of his men. The drivers should have the answers for the route and it doesn't get more basic than that. When they do then the trust is there.
What about, having the largest contract, so gathering the teams, and all preparing together the transport, giving clear instructions, and not waiting the last minute to ask "have you done that"? Absurd opinion. And you don't know the structure of the company. In most places, for special convoys, it's planned months in advance to check with the authorities the capacity of all infrastructure, to check everything that needs to be disassembled and reassembled on the street, and it's not the driver's job, but a planning team's job. Large dimensions transport is a team's work, and none of it is last minute organisation. No one must like a boss like you. Planning, organising, that's the job of a boss. Checking months and weeks in advance how the prep is going. The multi-million contract is mostly for that part. All the permits work, the organisation, the teams to assist on the transport. The transport itself is the cheapest part of the contract.
@@fabr5747 Maybe some of what you say is practical in theory BUT I think you forgot Murphie's Law, there's always going to be last minute surprises and even mistakes, and some quick decisions required to overcome it. How can anyone comment on what they don't know about behind the scenes. Also they add a bit of drama for the camera, the production might have that in their contract, to make some drama. I think these guys are legends considering the difficulty and the risk on the line.
I’m here for Every HHA Episode 😂
There's more to come!

Gotta love a boss that Micro manages everything. Fastest way to lose good employees
100 million on the line, it would be hard not to be.
There's a lot to be said for hiring the right people, giving them the tools, and letting them to do the job, but being available if needed.

Couldn't agree more, sounds like a top bloke and has every right to have such concerns. I bet the team are well paid too.
My boss was hard but very fair . Good bloke
How you have to be in the industry. Passion shows when he got them together and laid it bare. It’s his name and reputation on the trucks
No room for complacency in the industry!

Its important for people to see what an important roll Trucks play in Australia

What a huge commitment 😮
These truckers are a dedicated bunch!
Brillant video
You think he would have learned his lesson the first time. Guess not
Note to self, never get into heavy haulage.
It's a tough job but the pay can be crazy!
C-boy 25?? Yeah right more like 45🍻
Good video, impressive new t
This is what happens when your country makes nothing but sells the carbon credits for a tidy profit for themselves .
A huge job comes with huge stress! Who do you think was in the right?
awsome
The best in Australia HHA yesssss
Can't stand boss boy
Can you understand why he does what he does, though?
It is all TV.
Won’t come crashing down. They have check valves
Even so what would happen if one of those check valves would fail?
