Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Truckers Nightmare enters a darker side of the events that take place in the trucking world. Things can change so drastically without a moments notice. The simple task of delivering a load to a customer could very quickly turn into a series of events where one could possibly be facing his own demise. The events in these stories are about the lives, hardships, and unexpected, life changing circumstances that occur, in the lonely life of a driver out on the road. The fatigue, the stress, and the insanity that can consume the very life and can even go as far as to destroy one's family are written in these pages. The long hours, unexpected break downs, delays, and time away from home, along with the lonely nights and even longer days, test the men and women, bringing them to a point, in many cases of no return. Many of them allow the insanity that consumes them to run rampant in their lives, while others become victims of circumstances, unaware of the consequences involved. Others become victims of their environment, not being able to have a say in what happens to them. The stories in this series are each written with its own unexpected story line and twists to throw the reader off.

Every horrific story in this second book of the series continues to bring the reader into the secret lives of the people hidden from the rest of the world, only to be left pondering what had happened in the end. The lives of those living in the nightmare as well as the reader will be forever altered.

As a result, your thinking will be altered.

Either way, after reading this book, your life will be changed.

Book excerpt: If you or someone you love has been the victim of a truck-related accident, it is my hope that this book will provide you with the information you need if you're considering a lawsuit. Truck drivers are driving vehicles that weigh more than 20 times your average sedan. If that isn't enough, trucking cases are vigorously defended by powerful companies and their insurers who begin to build their defense while most trucking crash victims are just coming out of surgery. As the victim of a truck crash, you deserve the same swift, knowledgeable and vigorous representation. Unlike many law firms, Shannon Law Group is not a settlement mill. We are trial lawyers and that means we have the opportunity to tell our clients' stories-and not to insurance companies-but to a jury of twelve people, making certain that the victim's story is heard. In this book, you will learn how vital it is to: Engage an Attorney as Early as Possible; Avoid Talking to Insurance Companies; Begin to Collect Items for Trial; Be Smart About Social Media; Collect Medical Records and Bills for your Attorney; Memorialize Your Experiences in a Memo to Your Attorney; Check Your Insurance Policy for Medical Payment Coverage
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.

Book Synopsis Sweatshops on Wheels by : Michael H. Belzer
Download or read book Sweatshops on Wheels written by Michael H. Belzer and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long hours, low wages, and unsafe workplaces characterized sweatshops a hundred years ago. These same conditions plague American trucking today. Sweatshops on Wheels: Winners and Losers in Trucking Deregulation exposes the dark side of government deregulation in America's interstate trucking industry. In the years since deregulation in 1980, median earnings have dropped 30% and most long-haul truckers earn less than half of pre-regulation wages. Work weeks average more than sixty hours. Today, America's long-haul truckers are working harder and earning less than at any time during the last four decades. Written by a former long-haul trucker who now teaches industrial relations at Wayne State University, Sweatshops on Wheels raises crucial questions about the legacy of trucking deregulation in America and casts provocative new light on the issue of government deregulation in general.

Book Synopsis Utopian Dreams, Apocalyptic Nightmares by : Miguel López-Lozano
Download or read book Utopian Dreams, Apocalyptic Nightmares written by Miguel López-Lozano and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utopian Dreams, Apocalyptic Nightmares traces the history of utopian representations of the Americas, first on the part of the colonizers, who idealized the New World as an earthly paradise, and later by Latin American modernizing elites, who imagined Western industrialization, cosmopolitanism and consumption as a utopian dream for their independent societies. Carlos Fuentes, Homero Aridjis, Carmen Boullosa, and Alejandro Morales utilize the literary genre of dystopian science fiction to elaborate on how globalization has resulted in the alienation of indigenous peoples and the deterioration of the ecology. This book concludes that Mexican and Chicano perspectives on the past and the future of their societies constitute a key site for the analysis of the problems of underdevelopment, social injustice, and ecological decay that plague today's world. Whereas utopian discourse was once used to justify colonization, Mexican and Chicano writers now deploy dystopian rhetoric to interrogate projects of modernization, contributing to the current debate on the global expansion of capitalism. The narratives coincide in expressing confidence in the ability of Latin American and U.S. Latino popular sectors to claim a decisive role in the implementation of enhanced measures to guarantee an ecologically sound, ethnically diverse, and just society for the future of the Americas.
Book Synopsis Childhood Nightmares And Adult Fears by : Rose Keaton
Download or read book Childhood Nightmares And Adult Fears written by Rose Keaton and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Childhood Nightmares and Adult Fears goes back to the beginning of not understanding what was really going on. The chilling, horrifying memory is our stepmother leaving to go find our biological mother to get us the help we needed to survive. All my life, he always told my siblings and me she was dead or in a mental home. This was an unbelievable shock, then we learned that our stepmother didn't make it to our mother. She was murdered. We didn't witness it. At the same time we learned the truth and much more. The horror of learning what I once didn't understand that our father was the perpetrator. My nightmare is a tall shadow of a man with a hat on his head carrying me naked in his arms as I sniffed and cried softly as he walks toward the bed. This tells me that something did happen. During my adulthood, my fear was always something going wrong when I allow unhealthy men into my life, and I walked into a road of destruction when I saw a sign in my mind that read "Welcome to the Fast Life." Everything that I would never do you could say it became my very own manifestation. I couldn't escape. This is my true story of how I struggled to succeed and survive my trauma never giving up on myself. 144

Download or read book Nightmare Alley written by Mark Osteen and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2013-01-30 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic film noir offers more than pesky private eyes and beautiful bad girls—it explores the quest for the not-so-attainable American dream. Winner of the CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title of the Choice ACRL Desperate young lovers on the lam (They Live by Night), a cynical con man making a fortune as a mentalist (Nightmare Alley), a penniless pregnant girl mistaken for a wealthy heiress (No Man of Her Own), a wounded veteran who has forgotten his own name (Somewhere in the Night)—this gallery of film noir characters challenges the stereotypes of the wise-cracking detective and the alluring femme fatale. Despite their differences, they all have something in common: a belief in self-reinvention. Nightmare Alley is a thorough examination of how film noir disputes this notion at the heart of the American Dream. Central to many of these films, Mark Osteen argues, is the story of an individual trying, by dint of hard work or, more often, illicit enterprises, to overcome his or her origins and achieve material success. In the wake of World War II, the noir genre tested the dream of upward mobility and the ideas of individualism, liberty, equality, and free enterprise that accompany it. Employing an impressive array of theoretical perspectives (including psychoanalysis, art history, feminism, and music theory) and combining close reading with original primary source research, Nightmare Alley proves both the diversity of classic noir and its potency. This provocative and wide-ranging study revises and refreshes our understanding of noir's characters, themes, and cultural significance.
