Download or read book A Trucker's Tale written by Ed Miller and published by Apollo Publishers. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wit, wisdom, adventure, and revelations from sixty years on the road. They say that only truck drivers experience the true grandeur and landscape of America: the winding mountainsides at sunrise, the first frosts of winter descending on apple orchards, the call of the rising roosters. In A Trucker's Tale, Ed Miller gives an inside look at the allure of the work and the colorful characters who haul our goods on the open road. He shares what it was like to grow up in a boisterous trucking family, his experience as an equipment officer in Vietnam, the wide range of vehicles he's mounted, and the daily trials, tribulations, risks, and exploits that define life as a trucker. Ed's vibrant, no-holds-barred tales are hilarious and heartwarming, sometimes cringeworthy or unbelievable—recollections of heroic feels as well as the “fishing stories” that have stretched and shifted from CB radio to CB radio. Many are the results of what he calls, “just plain stupidity.” Others bring to light the small acts of kindness and grand gestures that these Knights of the Highway perform each day, as well as the safety risks and continual danger that these essential workers endure. Together they paint a compelling portrait of one of the most important, but least-known industries, and reveal why Ed, and so many like him, just kept on truckin’.

There really is nothing like admiring the beauty of a landscape while sitting in the elevated cab of a big rig tractor. Whether you’ve wondered what it is like to drive a big rig, want to make a career change, or simply crave to know more about truck driving culture, you’ll get an accurate picture of what the life is all about with this book.

Book Synopsis This Truckin' Life by : Laurie Driver
Download or read book This Truckin' Life written by Laurie Driver and published by . This book was released on 2010-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a set of reflections and recollections of a driver's 40 plus years in the hard and unforgiving world of the haulage and transport industry. It delves into the methods resorted to, in order to survive and make ends meet for him and his family, in a world where the driver is considered the lowest of the low. There is both humour and pathos and some love and some violence. There are tales of underhand dealings, fiddles and thievery. It tells of times when truck driving was a man's world. Hard relentless toil, long, unsocial hours when there was no power steering and all gearboxes were constant mesh. When roping and sheeting was the norm. When trucking wasn't just a job. It was a way of life

Book Synopsis How To Become a Truck Driver by : HowExpert
Download or read book How To Become a Truck Driver written by HowExpert and published by HowExpert. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let’s talk about the money, most truck drivers can expect to earn $30,000-$40,000 in their 1st year. I know some drivers who work as Solo drivers and decide to give up their apartments so they can stay in the truck all year long and save money. They still take days off from time to time, and stay with friends, family or rent a hotel for a few days so they can take a break. Once you have 6 months experience you may be able to find a job that pays more money. I’ve seen motivated drivers earning in the $60,000 range in their 1st year. The money is there to earn if you look for it. Too many drivers get complacent and they stay with the same company in the same position making low wages for years and years. Sometimes all you need to do to increase your income is switch positions within the company. If the company you work for doesn’t offer anything that will take you to the next level then find another company that will. I know a Walmart driver who earns $100,000 year and he’s home every night and weekend. Companies pay you in cents per mile (CPM) so the more mileage you drive the more you earn The bottom line is company drivers can make anywhere from $30,000 to around $100,000 per year. Stay away from company lease options, 99% of the time only the company does well with this type of position. They will make their lease program sound perfect, touting how you will be your own boss and make lots of money. Drivers often find themselves making just enough to cover the WEEKLY truck lease payment. If you want to truly be your own boss as a owner operator of your own truck then save up the money to buy a used truck cash or you may be able to find a 3rd party (not company sponsored) lease program. I have seen a couple of decent 3rd party lease programs, these will allow you to contract with any company you want. So if you’re not making enough money with one company then you can easily switch to another. Owner operators can make anywhere from $50,000 - $250,000 per year. About the Expert I have been driving a truck full time for over 4 years at the time of this publishing. I have been a company driver for 3 of those years and an owner/operator for a bit over one. In the 4+ years that I’ve been driving I have spent one year driving most of the lower 48 states. I haven’t made it up to North Carolina, and a few other states in the northeast but all of the others I have. For the last two years I have been truck driving with my team from Los Angeles to the Kansas City area and back. We did that twice a week. After doing that for about a year I was able to get a driving position working nights and being home every day. I did that for almost year. I left there because the company did a pathetic job of maintaining their equipment. I was afraid of getting stopped by law enforcement. So I left them and got my own truck to take care of. Now I am contracted with a carrier to move their freight and it works out a lot better. HowExpert publishes quick 'how to' guides on all topics from A to Z by everyday experts.
Book Synopsis Running Legal Blues by : Jeff H. Head
Download or read book Running Legal Blues written by Jeff H. Head and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2010-12-30 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Running Legal Blues by Jeff Head The book made me laugh, cry and most importantly, think and very educational about the trucking industry. All words and descriptions used to describe Running Legal Blues by those that have taken the time to read and enjoy the book. Others have noted "Not a polished piece of work" and to them I say "Of course not." It was never intended for RLB to meet the very high standards that some readers demand. Instead, the book was written by a truck driver, in his own words, and straight from the heart. As you spend some time with me as I travel through the years starting out as a renegade trucker doing what it takes to put the load through to its destination, then in later years demanding to run safe and legal; you will find yourself learning and understanding the trucking industry as you have never understood it before. You will follow me through the changes in the industry and the drivers themselves as I become a safe and legal driver as more and more drivers are in today's world . Most importantly, you will see the obstacles that drivers face when they decide to do it the safe way, the legal way. Understand the roles that shippers and receivers, dispatchers and even the government play in the day to day life of an over the road truck driver. Most importantly, you will learn just what happens to a driver that decides to buck the system and demand to put safety and running legal above all those that do not have time for him to do so. Of all the things I would hope "Running Legal Blues" to do, I would hope that it will bring a better understanding between truckers and the traveling public that we share the road with. Highway safety is something that all must believe in if it is to save lives. In today's world there are thousands of truckers that know and understand this. If given a chance, if protected from those that would see these truckers starved out of the industry, their numbers will continue to grow. So hop in the jump seat and let us take a trip or two around the country. Let us see if you have what it takes to handle one of the big rigs out on the open road and all of the politics that come with the job.
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 284 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.
