hi seansuth because of your video i got my cdl license ,but now i am trying to get some experience sowhtat is your advises to me thank you .

[seansuth]

@kokoko6000 That's right, blame me! lol. Take what is given to you. Don't wine and complain for now. You will be handed a bunch of crap when you start. You'll need to prove to them your a good driver. after a while, things will improve. Don't listen to the supertruckers at the truck stops. They're only bitter because they can't deal with it.

I'm about to cross this weekend, but have not crossed in 7 years. Has anything changed since 2008 when you made this?

[seansuth]

@ConLoco76 Not so far as I know

[fordranger797]

Your Videos are really awsome... Thanks for sharing your travels

Border crossing can really suck can't it?

[seansuth]

@fordranger797 Thanks. Yeah, it can... But as long as you have all your papers in order, and treat them with a BIT of respect (even tho sometimes you never get it in return) it can go pretty easy most often

@seansuth What about passport requirements?

@roaringwaterbay true

[roaringwaterbay]

@179178 i guess you could deduct the lumper unload fee on your taxes as a business expense.

[179178]

@roaringwaterbay lumpers are contracted unloaders. they used to be pretty crooked, but now there are lumper companies that have exclusive contracts for the docks. if u choose to use them, and refuse to pay, they can have u arrested for theft of service. however, there are still docks that require lumpers, and the only choise u have is to deliver or not.

[179178]

should have been crossing at Champlain (south of Montreal) back in the ealy 90's. avereae time clearing was 3-5 hours,and if it was on a friday, and after 11pm, you were stuck there til monday morning!. Stuck there in the impound lot. watched by a guard. if it weren't for the guys in roach coaches, u might not get a warm meal til noon monday!

[roaringwaterbay]

i saw this news program years ago. it was about people in the "trucking industry" called "lumpers." as best as i could tell, lumpers are criminals who, if you don't pay to unload your truck, will vandalize your truck and/or freight or attack you. i guess they are basically mafia-types practicing an old fashion protection racket-scheme. are lumpers still around; if so what do you do about them?
