I was never that high up bruh, just used to be a manager for 60 on the road drivers. I was horribly underpaid for such a high stress job but learned a lot



I know a few guys that do this. They all graduated with about a 2.0 in general business or marketing. Congrats.

These dudes will probably have some of the best jobs in the business. New equipment, great technology, amazing distribution scheme, dedicated runs, scheduled maintenance, great company with good benefits to work for.

The ignorance in here is amazing. Some "not to be named" probably think Walmart has one big DC and all trucks for the country come out of that one facility leading to 23 hour illegal runs.

Again, if you can provide any evidence to the contrary I'm all ears. All yall ever do is say "you don't know what you are talking about" but never add anything of substance.


I literally spent a over a year managing over the road truck drivers. Sorry there isn’t some link I can send you to prove it.

I’m not advocating anything but to think that truck drivers don’t get extra pay because their clocks haven’t started is absurd. I’m done trying to prove you wrong because you have no clue

You could just explain in. You obviously have experience in it.

You haven't proven anything, youve just continued to call me wrong while providing nothing.

Tell me this. If walmart is advertising $90k jobs but paying way less (as you claim) why do they have one of the largest private fleets on Earth? If they are false advertising their wages for the most crucial job in their supply chain, why would people keep applying for this job? Carriers fight over drivers. Why would they drive for WM if they underpay like you're saying?

Less consumption, less inventory moving, less need for drivers. Pretty damn simple. They aren't going to keep paying people to move product if it's not being sold



Wal Mart rarely has less consumption. Economy goes down-Wal Mart sales go up.

Provide any evidence of the contrary. Another person who makes a claim with absolutely zero to back it up

Just because it was a decade ago doesn't mean you still couldn't get an actual good job.

You shouldn't feel bad for me. I've got a good job, money, and success
