Book excerpt: Everyone is fascinated by the immense, often-colorful big trucks that haul incredible loads cross-country and across work sites. This book presents a lively and colorful look at a wide variety of "big rigs" as they haul everything from livestock to liquids. The trucks are seen in action -- hauling, dumping, loading, and unloading -- with a wide variety of cargoes. There are logging trucks on forest roads, livestock trucks leaving farms, freighters and refrigerated trucks -- "reefers" -- making time on the interstate, and trucks full of rocks kicking up dust in gravel pits. The book covers the tractors that pull big trailers, a variety of trailers, what it's like behind the wheel of a big rig, and a taste of life on the road.

Download or read book The Big Rig written by Steve Viscelli and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2016-04-12 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long-haul trucks have been described as sweatshops on wheels. The typical long-haul trucker works the equivalent of two full-time jobs, often for little more than minimum wage. But it wasn’t always this way. Trucking used to be one of the best working-class jobs in the United States. The Big Rig explains how this massive degradation in the quality of work has occurred, and how companies achieve a compliant and dedicated workforce despite it. Drawing on more than 100 in-depth interviews and years of extensive observation, including six months training and working as a long-haul trucker, Viscelli explains in detail how labor is recruited, trained, and used in the industry. He then shows how inexperienced workers are convinced to lease a truck and to work as independent contractors. He explains how deregulation and collective action by employers transformed trucking’s labor markets--once dominated by the largest and most powerful union in US history--into an important example of the costs of contemporary labor markets for workers and the general public.
