Be a trucker so you can spend your life risking auto collisions and getting fukked over by your company for the privilege of never seeing your family while traveling the open road and hanging out at Denny’s with racist hicks.

Trucking/logistics field seems like a steady(albeit not easy) way to make a very decent income.....

And for people who are always on this board saying they hate corporate america, value independence and "are about the bag" I am surprised at a lot of the responses.

While it may not be for everybody it certainly may offer a lot better money than what a lot of people currently make under bosses they hate...

It has its pros and cons like any other job..take the income earned...buy some land, a house, rental property and invest in the next phase of your life post trucking

U said you're done with trucking right ? What do you do now?


You won't do 2500 miles every week for one..

The 200 hours with the trainer succs ass.


You're living in his trucc with him over the road for 4-6 weeks


The diet succs too

But I think Atlanta has dedicated routes so you cab be home most days

i deal with truckers everyday cause i work with insurance

the best route is to find a fellow brother and combine your resources and start your own trucking company...

these mexicans dudes and they women do it all the time....

the main thing is to stick together, which many brothers fail to do

Working in the supply chain industry my whole career in, you are 100% accurate. I've tried to get some of my childhood homies on game that are skrugglin but they don't wanna listen. Even one of my good childhood homies who does it been trying to tell nikkaz this for years. LOTS of paper to be made but no wants to do it.
I've become more interested in it, I live not too far from SAV and the expanded port and the Panama Canal means a bunch of those jobs are starting to open up.

@BrothaZay

I just got the call from swift. Start the academy Monday. They said they're going to put me in a hotel??? I don't need it, I can drive there. So idk..

She said I'll be driving ~2500 miles a week. Only make like $800 - 1100 a week to start.

Did you get paid for training?... when did you actually start getting paid?...

I forgot to ask.
Can you explain a little bit of the process breh? :lupe:

How much the cost?,etc...I requested info from them as well.

If you go the route, go with the feds. Most notably Customs and Border Protection. My neighbor on the block works for them and he pushing $95k on top of 40k in yearly overtime.

What city though? I cant imagine living in lets say San Fransisco making 95k which includes OT.
