You probably won't see this message but I hope you tag me in your next video.... MY QUESTION IS.... AS A TRUCKER WHAT IS THE MOST PEACEFUL PLACE YOU'VE TRAVELED TO & WHAT IS THE MOST HECTIC YOU'VE BEEN TO???
Thank you for keeping the country going. 😉
I was reading about this company
Do they hire new drivers out of school? Trying to see what company’s I can drive for.. I’m about a two months away from getting my CDL. Starting class in the 21st of this month. Hopefully looking to be hired before the end of October, when classes are scheduled to end. Fortunately I’m a good student and should be able to get through pre-trip and theory fast because I’ve done a lot of this in my own before starting class. So, I’m hoping that I’ll be able to get enough drives in, hopefully earlier than they typically schedule them, in order to finish more quickly. Fortunately there are multiple instructors and only 10 students max per class!
Thx for what you do man we really appreciate you ❤
I appreciate all the truckers out there.
Thanks we appreciate yall too. I mean if yall wasn't using up the resources we haul we wouldn't have a job of replacing them😂😅
Except all the immigrants that now make up 75% of the trucking population
As an airline pilot, we share that similar struggle of being separated from family and friends. Thanks for what you do to get goods where they need to go. From one professional to another 🍻
Your wheels make the world turn.
I like tha saying but yes bless all the truckers❤️❤️
Whoops I thought you said burn lol
@@bravskeen😂
As an introvert, this is a dream job.
Introvert here so happy with my choice
True. It's amazing the more I got to know myself the more I realized this is the job for me. Now that im a truck driva... best decision I've ever made.
I'm a diesel mechanic. And I appreciate all you truckers. Stay safe out there. God bless.
I’m testing for my cdl A this coming Friday and it’s because of people like you that make this job seem a little less scary. Love your videos!
Wait till you look for a place to park at night...good luck
After 5-6pm good luck finding parking lol
@@AlbertoPerez-zq6evso what do you do in those situations?
@@theprodigalsun__get creative in truck stops, if you can park at the customer, otherwise your options are on/off ramps or look for nearby mom&pop truck stops as they’re usually less busy. But at the end of the day it’s a knife fight to get parking after 6pm. Drive at night if u can, or u can attempt to park at the paid parking section but be prepared for a knock at your door asking to move. Some places have real parking nazis that will call a tow truck on you if you park in reserved parking spots without paying.
That is so true. Imagine going to the store and there is no food, shampoo, medicine. One of the most important jobs.
i think the people who actually make it are significantly more important tbh
@snake1844 They can't make anything without truckers. They have to get large amounts of raw materials from trucks. No trucks no manufacturing. Truckers are hands down the most important job in this country
@@Darkrider8893 1. theres many other ways to transport materials besides trucks or even motor vehicles in general
2. truckers wouldn't have trucks or exist to begin with if it wasn't for the people who thought up the idea, the people who designed the truck, or the people who actually built the truck
there are numerous jobs that are FAR more important than the people who drive around all day lol
@@snake1844Shut up ! Truckers make the world go round
@@wegotthis43 horrible bait attempt, try harder next time
Seeing you cook makes me satisfie..
Truckers are the true heroes of this world 🫡
Alot of the men out here doing jobs that make the world go around and society doesn’t appreciate you. Whoever you are reading this, i appreciate you king. Fr fr
There are female truck drivers out here too. Maybe 1% but we still here and get the job done.
Yes, a big thankyou to you and all your fellow truck drivers.
Speaking as a farmer I know how crucial you are to farming and the whole food production industry.
Literally everything in the shops or the fuel we all need has been hauled by a truck at some point.
I've always got on great with the truckers I know and have great respect for what they do👍
Loved the cooking, It looked very tasty 😋
Happy trucking 🚛 😊
My great uncle drives the Kenworth and he is in the truckers Hall of Fame in Australia
Nice!!
I drive a kenworth and my right leg is shorter than my left.
Thank you Alex, and all of the other Truck Drivers! 🙏
Alex thank you for all you do.
I've always described life on the road as "A camping trip that just doesn't end".. My relationship with my wife is usually 3 phone calls per day. We sometimes go to sleep at the same listening to each other snore over the phone.. 😂😂😂..
I am not a truck driver, but my dad was one. Being on the side lines of that gave me insight that my dad loved us dearly.
5 of 5 ❤❤❤❤❤
Every job has it's ups and downs. Ups in trucking? You're alone. Downs? Stress/frustration due to traffic/construction/detours/weird small docks but mostly it's other drivers out there living their best life like nobody else exists. Cut you off, jump in front and slow down, refuse to let you merge or catch an exit, cross 3 lanes of traffic in front of you and run over the median to catch their own exit, run down the shoulder popping up next to you, you're trying to change lanes and nobody will let you go now the guys behind pop out and drive up next to you in the lane you're trying to switch to, its just great.
Yes, indeed. Thank you to all the truckers around the world. We appreciate you very much.
Thank you for what you do brother! My father was a truck driver the majority of his adult life. Not easy on the family at all and definitely a necessity when it comes to jobs.
Thank you to the backbone of our country!! ❤
One of a kind job done by one of a kind people...
Thank you for what you do we love you ❤
Thank you Alex & to all the truck drivers!!!
You truckers take a beating. Thank you for taking care of us !!
Dude just thanked himself.
All of this is truth! Stay safe!
Thank you to all Truckers across the country and thanks so much for service
Been trucking for almost 8 years love it man
Coming from a truck mechanic, thank you all for the jobs you give us
Big love to all of the truck drivers and last mile delivery drivers. You keep America going!!! 👍✌️
Thank you for all you do for everyone hugs
Grilling inside the truck. Amazing!
Be safe out there,man.
We appreciate you.
Its reassuring to see a trucker when i'm on a lonely,dark stretch of road.
Thank you for what you do!
God bless 🙌 🙏 all truck drivers, because that job not easy 100%
Thank you for all you do. I feel you I drove for 22 years.
Thank you Alex. Drive safe
Thank you, Alex, and all truck drivers, for all you do!
Take care bro I know the feeling , I just retired after 33 years on the road,
To anyone who sacrifices their time to have society run as best as non-politicians can provide, I thank you. We kind of need them but we definitely need you!
Same to you also Sir Alex. Take care and be safe…
Thank you for what you do! I’ll do everything I can to keep these rigs running! 🔧
Thank you for all you do so the world will keep going.
Thanks Bro!! I always give Truckers props on the road, give em room. Mutual respect. Worked for a trucking company in San Diego, and a moving company in Colorado.
Can't deny it... Spoken like a true man!
This is exactly what I look forward to. The open road, travel across the country, no boss breathin down my back all day, and I get paid
Same I hate working with people especially lazy workers
I was a truck driver for 30 years it has been good for me it afforded me a home and a good living with pension,401k,and a savings account,most of all now that my driving days are over I have a home to live out my days and something to leave to my survivers.Thank a trucker.
Hi Alex, hope you're doing good?
How did you actually start driving trucks? And what is needed for one to actually start. I've always wanted to drive semi trucks for a while now. It seems a bit fun.
Life on the road, sit seeing, living alone (unbothered😊).
Thanks for sharing your experiences man.👌🏾🙏🏾
I applied to a trucking company that accepted student drivers & offered training. They covered trucking school in exchange for me signing a contract to work for them for x amount of time.
You can also pay for trucking school yourself that way you're not locked into a contract but it's like $5k
@@ALEXTHETRUCKINGGUY I paid up front at the Crash&Roll Academy in SLC, I spent 21 off my 22yrs with the same refrigerated carrier, 15+yrs of that was teaming with the wife.
Your better off getting with a company that runs west of the Mississippi River. Way more city traffic/ gridlock to deal with east of the Mississippi River. Generally speaking, it's Easier to find a parking spot out west a lot of times vs.
Anywhere east of the Mississippi River.
You have to be a real man to do this job that this man is doing ❤
Thank you Alex
God bless u guys!!! Thank u!
My Dad was a trucker all his adult life. Thank you for your service.
Thank you for driving as well
Love ya alex
Yes!!! Thank you!! To every single trucker and there family, Thank You!!
Mad respect to all the truckers out there (especially those who have family).❤ ✌
That's right, my brother's out there!!! Trucking... Prayers for the truck drivers❤❤ & thanks for bringing us food & other thing's to Our local stores
perfect job for introverts and i always had a lot of respect for truck drivers since my dad taught me so since he was one too for quite some time
Have my road test this week! You’re the first channel and shorts i came across and started to consider this career. Best of luck in your life and career. God bless ❤
Excellent! Five Stars! We all appreciate your efforts. Stay strong. Your special driving skills. Yes all the bad self-centered drivers should understand that driving is a privilege not a right!
I know how you feel...I did it for 45 years,stay safe.....but I loved it
Thanks for what you do for us 👍✌️
Definitely the sacrifice we make to create a good life I respect and love all truck drivers ‼️‼️☝️☝️
THANKS TO YOU TOO ALEX FOR MOVING THIS GREAT NATION 🇺🇸💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You're welcome and thanks for this awesome video Alex hopefully I'll see you at a truck or rest stop. Miss seeing family after awhile it's not easy😢
God bless all the truck drivers. Thank you Alex stay safe always on your journeys
God bless you. Thank you for your hard work.
Just got into this at the beginning of the year. Yeah I've learned it sucks. I also have found out it's not sustainable for me because I can't maintain my house (I live alone). And not being home is a massive drain emotionally.
I think the only options for me is to get enough experience to find a day cab job or change careers again. It's the second time I've had to do this just to pay the bills.
The other frustrating part is, I enjoy driving and apparently I'm good at this job.
My friend, I am a truck driver like you too but I’ve been watching your video all the time even now you are in the new truck that you showed the other day. I was watching anyway anyway. Anyway, this story is true. Thank you my man keep posting it’s fun to watch.
keep on truckin' brother.
Good luck and be safe out there! Can’t wait to see you post a ghost/paranormal event while trucking :)
Grew up with my pa being a truck driver. Wish I could a spent more time with him
I usually run for about 6 to 8 weeks before I go home for a week. Some days it's difficult, other days it's all good.
Thank you 😊 and stay safe
This looks like a year old video but the heart felt thanks for what you do or did is still paramount.
Be safe out there.
You a real one dude, thanks
Why did you make this so emotional man
Props to truckers!
My dream job is being truck driver myself so you are a big inspiration on me keep going man
I thank you for what you do.
Bro, I appreciate thr work you do because I can't see myself driving thst much. I get passed just because I had to drive 5 minutes to the grocery store.
As a trucker he's right, it takes a certain mentality to do this job. But at the same time it's freeing.
October 4th is National Truckers Appreciation Day. 👍
Thank you for your service and sacrifice 🙏
Exactly! That’s what I called it too camping … a very tuff job that very few will understand or appreciate the efforts & sacrifice of drivers unlike most jobs in the name of making a living ..
Amen Driver keep safe out there ❤
19 years out here I'll be out here with you 😊
Thank you Alex, I appreciate your dedication and for all you do. ❤
Man that food looks good! Stay safe out there brother
So much chaos all around the world and still some professionals like us truckers keep moving forward
I worked for variant for 3 months they a good company!!!! 👍 be safe
Fellow truck driver here. A thank you to you as well.
Keep your head up, and on a swivel!
Stay safe!
You should make a truckers cookbook with all the meals I see you cook in your cab
So true. Truck drivers are underappreciated and taken for granted. It's a thankless hard career.
Trade workers aren’t taken as seriously, it’s just a lack of understanding from those people that think that.
Absolutely true, and you didn't even hit all the OTHER "high points" required to be a driver...
Got 30 yrs OTR, the last 20 in one stretch, following a divorce I filed, and won, in 1994. Now happily retired. Bro, you and all the other "Hands" out there, EARN your way !!!
... Be safe, enjoy as much as you can, and "Don't let the "turkeys" get you down...".
I am so introverted I've gotten tired of being around my wife and kids. I just realized trucking is probably the best career for me. thank you!
Love them truckers !!!
I’m a RN and when I wear my uniform people always thank me but I always thank them aswell because we all have our gifts and something to contribute to our society no matter the profession ❤
