Working hard 14 hours shift 10 hrs in sleeper day after day makes some drivers to burn out very quickly.. even driving for WM doesnt make it regular 9-5 job. It's still trucking and it's still life style. So some drivers do not push themselves over the edge. Take a brake, chat to other guys, take some time for yourself. Take care of your mental health. Trucking is mental challenging job if you ve been driving for years..

Great video

Yeah I make Dam good money driving for Walmart.....I do alot of pull ahead loads

Rich i was supposed to been here years ago im mad i waited so long

I’m 100% with you about working when I’m not at home. I know a few drivers that shut down early and then take an 11-12 hour break. If I’m not going home, I’m working until I can’t, then I’m starting again in 10 hours and 1 second!

I call my DC or the Rock before I arrive where I’m sent (I will not call if I am already dispatched) and ask to be dispatched because I will be arriving soon. Doing that helps me keep rolling. I dislike sitting and waiting to be dispatched. All of Rich’s ideas work as well. You make driving at Walmart the way that you want. The tricks he talked about are so worth it. $$$$

Also, Making sure you hit arrived as soon as you are in the geo fence especially while you are at the dc’s and doing groceries. Getting that unscheduled time can help rather its 1/2 a hour or a hour, that can add up.

I see a lot of bashing of Walmart online. Want to make great money.. Walmart! Want to have a family life.. Walmart! Want to get treated with respect.. Walmart! What's the catch? There really isn't any.. They want safe drivers transporting their freight from the yard to the store. They don't want you to take shortcuts and they will never ask you to.. That's not a bad thing.

Just curious about your opinion about the wal mart a2d program and advice for the new a2d drivers.

@@johnbalukonis9157 I was shocked when I first heard about it. I never thought Walmart would begin training new drivers. I've heard that the A2D drivers, having successfully completed the program, are turning out to be very safe drivers, proving the program is working. Time will tell if it stays that way. I'm all for it unless they start hitting things, bringing our reputation for safety down.

i have a question if anyone can answer it for me i got my license about a year ago and i went local to start have about a years exp local no accidents no tickets knock on wood its a battle everyday someone wants to die but anyway i was telling an older driver i wanted to eventually try and work for walmart cause they pay very well and said most otr companies doesnt really except local exp is this the case for walmart does anyone know ?

@@jblue8436 yes they accept local driving experience, as long as it is in a tractor/trailer. One of the drivers I mentored at Walmart came from a local day-cab job.

If anyone here works out of FT. Pierce, FL please contact me. I’d appreciated. Thanks.
