This is not an article about @TracyMorgan, but refers to the
tragedy he was involved in that raised national awareness to the
hours that transportation professionals are pushed to be
working...especially if they are paid a flat rate.. It's tragic
to the drivers. We as a populace are fortunate that great comedy may
indeed arise from this tragedy.
However, the tragedy to drivers will continue after whatever is settled for
just these parties involved. It does shed even more light on the need
for transportation professionals. No one really wants to get sued.
This means, more drivers are needed. As the retail fronts dissolved
because of the virtual shops and the ultra low-overhead, there came
an increased need to transport more merchandise, more frequently.
Most States have job training programs. CDL training is usually
available and pays a middle-level wage to anyone with the training,
without discrimination. These training programs came into existence in 1998 via federal act, but are State issued.
Ronald Reagan's hand lingers and oppressed me with his false stigmas and won't allow
me to obtain a CDL, not without efforts that would pull me off my
current goals.
I encourage you to get that CDL training. Work for a low-level
(economically) company, whom quite fairly will sport the risk of inexperience
and thus pays less because of higher insurance rates, and in 6 months the companies that you also applied to when you started will
be looking for drivers with 6 months experience, and your wage will go up, enabling you for other things.
This is a path for anyone. It does a lot for the America you
live in, and you'll be seeing it. However, for those first 6-months
you'll be committed to the road. So prepare for that with those people it
will affect.Alternatively, nursing (CNA) training, and food management training are also offered through these same State job services. Google it up. Get by, so you can be around later, dear ones. #Journey
