It seems you guys are confused on the pay. I am a lineman electrical worker out of New Jersey they make more than inside electrical workers. Do your research so you can comment facts 💯
A few months back i was watching your video. While i was working on the road i felt depressed and was smoking alot of weed. I told myself i needed to make a change so i quit my job and came back home. I stopped smoking weed took a month off and found a job as a electrician apprentice. I feel so much better now. You said in one of your videos if you cant stop smoking to get a bag something wrong with you i took that shit personal but now im doing better than ever..good luck on your new career bro stay up 💯
Me personally I love this move I feel as though in trucking you should grind,save up, and find something else to do outside of it but I also feel like the Touch Freight was probably the reason you left so early that stuff is really taxing on the body and you love fitness so that’s also difficult on the truck
Congrats bro, just left from doing teams with FedEx ground making 2k a week but didn’t have a life but now I’m running containers local in Houston. 800 a week smh. I’m thinking about leaving truckin. No jobs on indeed etc & money sucks
Salute i agree with the move you made, im a truck driver and I'm a electrical apprentice. I'm thinking about trying my hand just as you have. Forget all the negativity
Congratulations bro 😎 once you get the experience your pay 💰 will elevate and you’ll be able to make more or the same pay as trucking and plus being home everyday and making a good living is where it’s at ignore the people that think trucking is where it’s at too many people getting in trucking so the pay and miles are going to be up and down but with you working hourly you good
Congrats bruh I went through something similar outta highschool for pipe fitters out here in LA passed the test but they ain’t get your boy on the interview just didn’t have any work experience so I think they passed bouta go out with a trainer for knight this week cause if you let’s see how it goes
hell ya brother! I've been working as a cook for the past 15 years give or take (probably give) I hear you loud and clear its time to elevate! my interview is a week from tomorrow!
Congratulations on escaping trucking. 90 percent of truck drivers want to but most can’t. Only the Extremely jealous truck drivers sitting around saying shit like you gonna comeback to trucking. Welcome back to life brother.
he could had took that experience and just worked local and make more than what he will then he be making in 5 years from being an electrician they still work 10 hours and alot of overtime.
Made my next move my best move trucking is an unhealthy lifestyle after a while . Still grateful for it though. the pros and cons with truck driver and lineman electrical union the truck driver leaned more toward cons
