We have National Driver Appreciation Week every year but it should be every day !
Without our Drivers the world would not exist as you know it. All the goods, food and supplies that you enjoy would disappear.
As technology starts to push out many things ( check out my last blog piece) it will never figure a way to move your household goods across the country or that load of fruit or lumber to your food market or Home Depot.
Through the years many rules and regulations have made life more difficult, don't get me wrong some were necessary others maybe extreme. Couple that with the economy going up and down, mostly down the past 10 years and the life on having to be away from home for days or weeks and you start to see the life of a professional driver.
The ones that I know are good people, people that care and want to work for their money.
They respect the people they work for and meet.
For the most part, at least in the household business , they are the nicest people to talk to.
They mostly will always go out of their way to help someone. Not just in the workplace but anytime.
They make friends around the country and bonds that last a lifetime.
But like most things in life they get taken for granted or overlooked.
I have always admired their profession and their outlook on life. Good, honest people that just want to provide for their family through hard work. Their major reward after a move is the handshake or hug they get at the end of a move.
Moving is one of the most stressful things in life that you go through and they know this and through their caring and expertise they are able to make a positive difference in someone's life.
That is pretty cool and that is what drives them and that is why I say THANK YOU.. Today and every day !
God Bless
