Passing on the trucking torch

from TalkCDL Trucking Podcast

PASSING ON THE TRUCKING TORCH PASSING ON THE TRUCKING TORCH. The next generation of truckers are eager to pass their test and to their first trucking job. If you have a young son or a friend that is wanting to become a truck driver, try encouraging him. There are some truckers that are trying to discourage young wanna-bee- truckers from following their dream of being the next BJ and the bear. There are actually truck drivers who have taken it upon themselves to sway our future drivers from trucking to perhaps a different field. These grumpy old truckers need to remember their own journey they embarked upon. There was a time in their own life, that no one could talk them out of becoming a trucker. The only reason I can come up with, is, they are miserable and don't like the way the industry is turning. They don't like the new rules that are inevitable to change. They fail to remember when they came into he industry, previous drivers were saying the same thing about the new industry. The generation before them, was just being introduced to things such as "Qualcomm, Aerodyne Tractors (Ant Eaters), New hours of service and new bridge laws" and they did not like it anymore than today's driver likes "ELD's, HOS, Automatic Transmissions and training procedures". So try and remember this the next time you might want to discourage a young driver that has the dream.
