Trucker Cassie
Trucker Cassie (born April 14, 1992), is a Swedish YouTuber and content creator. She is mostly known for her Youtube videos where she posts vlogs related to the life as a truck driver on the Swedish roads. She is also into gaming and does livestreaming on Twitch where she plays games like Euro Truck Simulator 2. Cassie likes to spread the word on having a fair and safe work environment, and also to show how trucking can be in her part of the world.
Career
Cassie started her career as a truck driver at age 19, with refrigerated trucks, delivering food in Stockholm. She later wanted to expand her career and moved on to driving a dump truck, and later in the same company, a powder tanker truck. Today, Cassie has tried out a few different trucking jobs. Including wood chips deliveries, septic tanker trucks, dump trucks and hook loader trucks. Truck driving was never in her family. She learned about trucking school in Sweden from a friend when she was around 16, and got inspired.
Cassie started her Youtube channel in January, 2019. During this time, she had been contacted by a TV production studio, that wanted to have her on their reality tv-show about female truckers. The pilot episode was supposed to be filmed by the drivers themselves, and then the clips would be sent to the production company for the editing.
However, after the production company went silent, Cassie decided to make her own video from the footage she had filmed. And that was the start of her channel "Trucker Cassie" that would gain thousands of followers. The channel started as a gaming channel under the name "Razorkittn", but is now more focused on trucking and every day vlogs.
Personal Life
Cassie doesn't talk alot about her family. She grew up in Stockholm without her parents. She loves animals and currently has a Chihuahua named Happy, and two cats, Errol and Zelda. On her free time she does video editing, photography, painting and clay sculpting. Along with gaming.
Mental Health
In 2020, Cassie's truck caught fire while she was driving on the highway.[1]She managed to get herself and her dogs out in time, before putting the fire out. The fire had started because of an electric fault, leaving all the electronics completely burnt off. After the incident, Cassie started thinking alot about her life and past traumas. Meanwhile, she never knew when she'd be trucking again. The company had problems with finding drives, and she took on everything she could. During this time, she also lost her father.
All this combined left Cassie completely exhausted and in a deep depression. She came back to trucking a few months later, working on a 50% schedule. This experience made her realize that life is about more than work, and no job is worth risking her mental health for. But her love for trucking remains, as she spreads the word for having a balanced work to lite ratio.
