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’.

He attended George Washington University to earn an MBA and left with a diploma, and with a food tech startup called RUNINOut. After running his company for five years, he had saturated the local market. Hosting meetups was too time consuming, so It was time to take RUNINOut on the road. What better way to do that than to become a truck driver and make some money on the side. He attended trucking school in Middletown, VA and spent many nights sleeping in my car near the foothills of the Shenandoah. Then during a period of a year and and a half, he worked for three different companies and picked up the requisite skills to be an over-the-road trucker. He then decided to purchase his own truck and drive power only pulling other people's trailers. But before starting his trucking company, he would attend diesel tech training at North American Trade Schools in Baltimore, MD. Trucking in a semi truck is living the good life. No boring meetings, No pesky bosses to haggle you. And when you get tired of the scenery, you just get up and go. Would Chito find life fun and exciting? Or would there be hazards and dangers in the road ahead?
