Trucking Careers- "It's a Lifestyle Not a Job" With the economy in the state it is in right now, there are more and more people looking into trucking as a career alternative. The realization that there will always be drivers needed to deliver the enormous amounts of freight delivered daily all over the country, has created a huge desire for many to investigate trucking as a possible career choice. The main problem with this is that most people do not understand that the lifestyle and requirements for a career in trucking are extremely demanding and sacrificial. I have gone over this in great depth and detail in my book, "The Truth about Trucking" in order to save those who are just looking for a career transition from the shock and disappointment that can occur if their personality and lifestlye expectations are not suitable for over the road truck driving ( OTR). There is nothing worse than spending anywhere form $2500.00 to $10,000.00 on a truck driver training program, only to find out that the career you thought was going to give security and stability in an unstable world, has caused a life of stress and disillusionment. I can however recommend many alternatives for a career in trucking if trucking remains ones choice. Many of these include local and regional driving jobs which will remove the stress of OTR driving. One thing you must realize is that you will be required to have anywhere from 6 months to 2 years driving experience in order to be considered for a local truck driving job. This is because of the strict insurance requirements enforced since 911. What this means is that you are most likely going to have to go over the road for your first year or so in order to obtain this necessary and required experience. The OTR trucking companies are one of the few that can hire and insure newly trained CDL graduates. Once you have this experience you can then apply locally or regionally for a position. Trucking is an extremely secure job in the sense that there will always be the need for drivers, however, one must carefully look into the lifestyle and personalty qualifications prior to committing to the initial cost of a CDL trianing program.
