Thanks for watching! Can you believe Canada forces you to take days off🤨 maybe I want my labor to be exploited…did they ever think of that? CAPITALISM BABY 🦅🦅🦅 lol If you want to join Melton, and support my Lamborghini collection apply here 👉 intelliapp.driverapponline.com/c/meltontrucklines?r=IanElbert
Hey Ian I wanted to ask if you think it's possible to maintain health and feel good when trucking. Do you have any tips to share? I really want to do what your doing too but Im just not sure if there will be time for going on walks and exercising
Bro how’s melton is about drivers with headsets because ik TMC have a no cell phone policy or some like that and I can’t do that I gotta have my headset
I don’t have one myself, I just use my AirPods for phone calls so I don’t know for sure. But I’ve seen other melton drivers with them so I assume it’s fine
@@fredrick8947 ah yeah, no with the ones we have they’ll only see it if it gets triggered by something. Either really hard breaking, or a collision… or a really bad pothole lol. I’ve never had issues with it
It’s cool the first time lol. We do get 6CPM extra for Canada loads though so it’s not so bad. Just dealing with customs and border traffic is annoying
I'm looking at Melton and the recruiter is saying it's 2 weeks out 2 days home. But you have been out a month? Are you choosing not to go home, or are you staying out because you have to?
Hey Ian I’ve been watching you since you first started with Melton, I’ve been thinking about applying but I had a question about training. Does melton do team driving “training” or how does training work? Thank you! Stay safe out there! 🙂
Thank you! When you’re with your trainer you both sleep and work at the same time. That way they can be hands on with training and really teach you what you need to know for securing and everything.
It all depends on the delivery schedule. But most of the time I’ll work 7-10 hours a day, 7 days a week. But my weekend days are usually shorter, 5-6.5 hours of driving typically. And I also have my fair share of 14hr+ days, those typically happen when a shipper or receiver is super slow.
Email or text number? I want to know about Melton from truckers who work for them and have their options, pro and con as well. I'm thinking of try it. I have 7 months experience with Reefer and OTR but no flatbed experience.
