    Hey Josh you didn't kill her, I know I'm talking to the Josh today but the Josh before you didn't kill her you gave her a reason To do the right thing and show up on time the fact that there was another vehicle involved in this has nothing to do with you, If she had never been killed and made it to work Josh I'm sorry to say but I don't think that she would have lasted on that job Because her failure happened years before you, it happened when she was a child it happened when she was a grown up But in the end she had you and you gave her a shot And it's probably the best thing that she's had and would have ever had up until that morning. Josh I've been riding for free on your channel but you're an outstanding guy so that's why I'm going to subscribe. Your buddy from Southern California.

    First thing, I like the way you explained her how to do the job. Because lots of people don't have the patience to do that. I will always say to my new coworker - ask me anything, watch me work, if you don' t understand, ask me again. Many people start to yell at rookies 'cause they don't have the patience to show them new stuff slowely. You did great job with her. Second thing, it's not your fault for her sad ending. I really mean that. Good luck with your next week. I hope there will be lots of $$$$$$ and some good routes😊

    LETS GOOOO I MISSED YOUR OLD VIDEOS. This one was so depressing man. Josh do you remember about the time a guy working with the pneumatic trailers took off & was going to fix the trailer in commerce city? I think the story mentioned the state patrol having to pull him over.

    I’ve never seen any of your old channel videos but it’s interesting to see what has changed and in most ways of what hasn’t changed! Keep firing off those videos and I’ll keep looking for ya. This shit is entertaining af.
    Btw you ever think of ducking out again I’ll be looking for ya not only at the outside fuel islands but while you are still employed with swift (and I am) on their fuel islands as well

    Good story! Such a shame about what happened to her. Speaking of oil field stories, I remember the one you told about something to do with safety and the old heads thinking safety wasn't important. You imitated them saying something like "In my day, we'd get our fucking heads blown off and go home and it was just or neck and take a shower...". That made me laugh hysterically every time! 🤣😂

    • @ThisguytrucksV2.0
      @ThisguytrucksV2.0  2 месяца назад

      I remember that line and it was completely by accident but one of my favorites. It was something like "these damn millennials out here wearing hard hats because they can't handle real oilfield work! Back in my day we would get our damn heads blown off and we would come back to work the next day with just our necks!"

    Hi man. I joined up with GP transportation company out of Joliet, illinois. I was wondering how you would compare swift to GP? I've been averaging anywhere between 1400 to 1900 gross. They have per diem pay now too. The best week I've had so far is 2100 gross. I'm a company driver. Any feedback or advice appreciated. - Gator
