The bed gets made before the engine starts. Katrina Drozdova wakes in her truck's sleeper berth, stretches and straightens the bedding, then clocks on using an electronic logging tablet. Bandita Drive's fast-starting Short makes a working morning out of a place most motorists only glimpse from the next lane.

Billed as the first part of waking up somewhere new every morning, the video follows the jobs that come before the highway: inspecting cargo straps and securement chains, tapping the tires with a thumper and opening the hood. A low-fuel warning appears on the dashboard. She adds windshield washer fluid and checks the engine fluids before securing the hood again.

There is no spoken dialogue, just the sequence of getting herself and the truck ready. Among the comments, one viewer singles out the tire-tapping tool, while another relates the routine to their own years driving a semi. The description also carries a recruitment ad for A&M Carriers.

The bathroom portion of this morning routine comes after she has already started driving. Drozdova pulls into a highway rest stop with her toiletry bag, washes her face, brushes her teeth and does her skincare and makeup. Then it's back across the parking lot to the truck.
