Trucker Olu

This’s my journey to becoming a truck driver. I previously work for Amazon as a yard jockey. I wanted to make some real money, so I decided to join Schneider after receiving my CDL. I got my tanker endorsement and I’m currently working on receiving my hazmat. Subscribe to my Chanel and follow me on this great journey.

    All that space. At the rail I work at the spots start at the yellow square and the train track replace the other end. Most tinea chassis are lined up length wise taking out 2 feet of space. Basically backing is so tight that the difference between making it and hitting another trailer is literally 5 inches. They auto fire if you hit anything so basically make sure you have two spaces before you back

    @@notyourechochamber3137 if they have computers in the trucks like most companies now, moves will appear on the computer, you tap it to “claim” the move. You move the trailer, mark it as complete, it then tells you if they called for a new trailer in dock or if that is the end of your moves for that trailer and to wait for another one. Most yards will divide the yard into areas and assign drivers respectively. If you need help you just give a holler on the CB.
