I am a pilot. I can truly understand and feel for you. We have some similar struggles, irregular hours, away from family. We have to deal with jet lag. Nice video
我個人覺得 team drivers and solo driver 都各有其好處和壞處吧! Team drivers 在任何情況下都有多一人相伴，需要時刻也能幫上不少忙，而且工資會稍微高一點。我看不少 solo truckers 其實也挺不錯的，而且我覺得個人開車會比 team 更輕鬆。休息時可以自己安心睡覺，車也沒有在行駛中，少危險。上廁所方面，solo 司機就比較好辦。無論大小號都可以在車裡解決，衹要掌握了，乾淨又俐落🤣。畢竟長期憋住對身體和健康會造成很大傷害，這個不得不注意。
1. There are about 2m heavy-truck drivers which represent almost 10% of the sector ( trade, transportation and utilities has about 28M worker) 2. We are less then 10 years away from FSD which will cause majority of heavy-truck drivers find something else in the sector 3. It is estimated that AI will replace many of the jobs in the sector in the next 20 years. Conclusion, heavy-truck drivers made good money today but the occupation has no future. Please be aware
Very honest comparison, you are in good company good thing about being a trucker you can live anywhere you want. I moved out from Bay Area California just because trucking giving me this opportunity. Income high living cost low life is better!!
Similar to ocean-going crew, sleep and work. They go home every 12 month, no weekend, no holiday, 24 hrs 2 shift, day by day. Not more than 15 people every voyage, I would never want to go back again.
