We owe a lot to the American van chauffeur. Think for a moment just how much we owe them, all 3.1 million of men and women with car driving jobs. These men and women drive over 400 billion miles a year. The following article will lead us through the theme whatever you eat thank truck stop driver events.
You may be reading this saying, "Well, anyone can get a bus driving job." I beg to differ. Many, certainly can get their CDL license and then jump behind the wheel of a big van but they will never become a professional van carter. They won't be able to turn it into a successful career because they will be on the road disgusted.
That adds up to an astounding 9.4 billion tons of freight per year. If you can use it, watch it, listen to it, eat it or even drive it, it probably traveled by van. All that dedicated and professional driving deserves our thanks and appreciation. To let the nation's automobile drivers know what an important part they have in keeping our country's economy going, in 1998 The American Trucking Association initiated National Automobile Driver's Appreciation Week.
They didn't realize along with the travel and site seeing there was also breakdowns and unexpected detours. Some people become truckers before they realize they would have to deal with four-wheelers who seems to care little about safety on the highway or just don't understand. Chauffeurs also find that it is expensive on the road if they don't plan for being on the road.
Some may deliver recognition with cash bonuses or gifts, million-mile and safety awards, a cup of coffee or windshield cleaning at bus stops, an extra paid day off, goodie bags with fresh fruit and water, free health checks and frequent other ways to show truckers they're appreciated. It's all part of letting these road warriors know we're glad they're out there working for us every day.
After a little down time, you can relax with family and friends and just enjoy being together. That may be as simple as going out for ice cream or taking in a ball game. Whatever that time is, use it to get connected. Share stories about what happened on the road or the places you've been. Listen to what family and friends have been up to while you were gone. Just spend time being normal. Refresh and recharge.
Through rain, winds, blizzards and icy roads, fog, these professional use their skills to keep going while keeping themselves and other chauffeurs safe. The road can also be a lonely place. Some over the road truckers may be gone from home for weeks or more at a time. That often means missing family events most of us take for granted.
Ok, so what are some things that should be taken into consideration before taking a car driving job? The candidate for the open road should be self-reliant and responsible. He must be disciplined and dependable. Drivers need to be on time to pick up and deliver their loads. How else will goods show up on shelves when they are supposed to?
