During three decades of driving a commercial semitruck across the nation, I have been continually amazed of the dependence the society has become used to of products of all kinds to be available at all times at their convenience. To see what farmers and manufacturing companies produce, driven by competition and demand, is very impressive to me. We are a blessed country to have an abundance of many resources. I think society and a large growing population has become used to and come to expect the ongoing delivery system we have and are somewhat spoiled. It is a very complex and sensitive logistics system at work 24-7. As the population continues to increase, so will the dependence of the trucking industry, and with the growing shortage of qualified drivers, my desire is to raise the awareness of this to all.
