Pffft....cant even quit doing video's right..hahaha....oh man, I for one am glad you didn't give up. I would have never met up with ya here in Sarnia, and then up in Yellowknife for the Ice Roads...You're a true professional Sean...dont ever let that leave your mind. It's a true pleasure knowing you and to have worked with you...now stop your dam whining....and get to work you sumbitch!! lol
Gee what a surpise they give you a shit truck and lie and say its working fine....more typical bullshit from another crap company....tell them to take that truck and stupid qualcom and shove it up their ass.
Hey Sean dont loose faith, it can be a hard industry to be in and takes a while to find the good ones to work for, and yes we all have to go through a few bad one to get to the good ones, I have been on the highway running all the U.S and all of Canada and the Yukon for about 30 yrs now.
What are you going to do when your safety is at stake? Leaving a job is never fun and I've been there before and it is really hard when you know you way of life and family is at stake. The company knew they had bad trucks but were blind to demands to fix them. Don't beat yourself up because of the right choice you made. This one is on the company and not you. I'd cut ties with any company if I knew my safety was a question. Things will get better if you believe your heart and not your gut.
Great tutorial videos. You have a good way of showing us how to do things etc and put it in basic english so can understand it Like the video with you bobtailing back home, you seemed to enjoy that journey alot, was good to see you very happy in that one. (hopefully you will have them good times again). Hope you find a new job soon. For all your bad days, there will be some good days soon (hopefully). Don't give up on it though. hope your luck changes soon.
. Never new you could shift gears clutchless. Can you do it with a synchro transmission or is it just non-synchro tranmissions. Like you, hate automatics, always makes me feel you are not connected to the truck and don't have control, as I always say, you can always stop the truck in an emergency with the gearbox even if you wreck it but at least you walk away at the end of it, with an auto box, you may not be so lucky.
great videos Sean, Hope you find a new truck job soon. Ask a few good friends if they can point you in the right direction for a good job or if the companies they work for have any vanancies. . Just aswell wasn't any problems with the brakes thats all I can say. Usually you can find the good companies by asking a few friends to see who they reocmmend or see what friends stay at a company for a long time as that is a good sign if they stay at a company for a long time.
Hey Sean. I really hope you don't quit on trucking!
I think that you have a great tool in front of you right now, your computer. Make a nice video where you present yourself and show what you are good at. When you look for new jobs, tell'em to watch the video. You could alwais give it a try.. I mean, your a protruckdriver and the videos here on youtube prove that!
Hey Sean, I feel like that in the UK. I've got an interview with H&R Transport in a few weeks. Try them. New equipment, good miles and even do a dedicated run. I've got a mate there, he's doing AB-CA, 5 days out, 2 at home.
Dont give up. You didnt come this far just to give up. It might take time to find that right company but dont let one bad company ruin your experience. Keep ya head up gonna miss the videos they were truly educational.
You will not be happy local, I wasn't and I'm still not happy I miss the road bad. isn't yankee a good candian company They have pretty nice equipment. GOOD LUCK stay positive
Dude Don't let the company give you the business, take it too them. Shove it up their rear. There are so many great companies that the will take care of there drives, so don't let one companie's crap bog you down man. At least you don't work at cracker barrel.
dont worry y dont u wrk 4 a conpnay like werener or sumn like that or get into the gasoline business
dont give up on trucking
people always told me
the harder the battle the harder it is to surrender which means in ure cas that u have devoted a lot of time and effort to the trucking industry adn to just quit like that wont b very easy but u jut gotta go through trials and tribulations sometimes just keep ure head up sean
Sean, do whatever that makes you feel good but read all comments, please stay in the truckin industry, we need you. Im sure there are a lots of GREAT trucking companies in Canada that would love to have you, keep fighting. Can´t wait for your next video...
Don't give up!!! whatever makes you cry today surely will makes you laugh tomorrow. I just got my CDL, and I've been watching your vids for a while.... they're good and helpful.
Damn man i think i wanted to cry ;x Take some time get your head clear so you can figure what your gonna do, Taker easy man and if you leave challenger and im sure as i say this i speak for half these people here but tell challenger to stick it where the sun don't shine!! take care Sean.
Life is set to test us..we know u'll pull thru.Something else is probably just round tha corner.Look forward to the next chapter!Take care..4 now. "S"
Don't get discouraged and give up, you are very talented and can easily find a company that will appreciate the skills you offer. There are a lot of crap companies out there, but you gotta go through the bad to get to the good (that's how life seems to work). Look into H&R Transport, they have locations throughout Canada, including BC and AB.
Yes, Schneider, or JB hunt if you have them in Canada ...don't give up, you have a bad company right now with faulty equipment...I honestly say Schneider is the best!, Good luck.
Go to Schneider National man, its just down 401 in Guelph, exit 266 north on Hwy 6. They are in a hiring frenzy! Plus I work there, so it would be cool to meet you finally.
You'd think they'd at least get the air leak fixed. Geez, two trucks and they're both junk, Not a good way to start out at a place, is all their equipment junk?
Yeah maybe give things a shot here in the states! Since you have experience, a lot of these local jobs that get you home every night are paying $18-21 per hour. I think that is a pretty decent wage where I live. You will have bullshit no matter where you go, it just depends on how much!
yeah, the only problem is to work in the US I need to take care of a few thousand $ immigration paperwork. You are right, no matter where I go there's B.S, but I've had no luck here with B.S thats handle-able
true about BS, but just yesterday a tunk truck arrived at my dad's tugboat to pump off some oil and my dad asked him how much he gets, the guy said $30/h. That's wickek...
Hey man. Sorry to hear of this. Don't give up tho man, theres tons of companies who'd hire you in a sec. My dad has driven for about 15 years for companies throughout BC & AB,I can give you some good recommendations if you'd like to save you some run around and get you back on the road with a good company.
sounds like these bitches i work for,but they`re getting better at fixing the equipment,might wanna get the hell away from that company dude,u have bills to pay and can`t while sitting on your butt,good luck bro,keep trucking.where are you living now city wise.
Sorry to hear about your misfortunes with the new company. I've found your narrative videos to be really interesting and informative. I hope things work out for the best, and that you are back on YouTube soon.
hey man .... i'm sry to hear about that shit i've seen what you go through i've watched every video since i first got on youtube ...i remember a while back you said something about moving to the states.... give it a shot then try going over the road.... who knows maybe things atre different in canada then in the states ....well give me a holler on myspace ....take care bro
As they say "Life's a dance, you learn as you go" Sometimes you have to try different things before you really find your place and where you want to be, but when you find it you will know it!
I really like your videos, and look forward to your next one! Best of luck with whatever you decide, I'm sure it will all work out in the end.
I noticed you seemed down since you took up the new job, I was bummed out to see this because you seemed a lot happier before. Sometimes it takes something drastic to get our attention, a.k.a. more truck trouble. It must be for the best, so hang in there. At least you will be home more! Take care bro, I look forward to the new vids!
wow didn't expect that to happen, but I understand your frustration. I have to admit being a polish immigrant I thought I saw bad and unsafe trucks in my homeland... But this is outrageous. Profits above safety, that is what I get from it. I hope everything will turn good for your, and I will keep you in my prayers. Take care!
I understand where your coming from Sean.I have been battling since the divorce with my wife, worrying about my kids,being away from my family.Trucking Requires a lot of a person,and it is always a battle.I have come to understand not long after i started trucking
Hey Sean, cheer up man. Hope things come out better for you. I have the same perspective on life right now (due to work), and your videos (as well as trucker2times) have kept a positive attitude in me, and have given me something to look forward to. I know personal life is personal life, but i'm concerned.....keep us informed man.
