Sweatshops on Wheels: Winners and Losers in Trucking Deregulation $60.00 With the exception of the very first, and very negative review posted about this book, most of the comments from other truckers concerning this book are accurate. At first I was actually expecting a small scattered ranting and raving style book from a former trucker, but this book was more than just a collection of complaints. I suspect the Marietta Georgia comments are from a dispatcher; possibly one I've worked for as a driver out of Atlanta for two years. This book is more of an economics textbook, than a first person account of what a long-haul trucker's life is really about. In fact, this may even be my only complaint; that there wasn't enough ranting, raving, or what some who've never driven cross-country for a living might call whining. The story from a previous reviewer concerning a crack-smoking employee on a forklift (although possibly an exaggeration) brought back some horrible memories of mine, and reminded me in a split second why I quit what was without a doubt the worst job I've ever had. The author's main focus is that the industry we have today, is the result of deregulation. People with anti-union baises will certainly have a problem with this argument, as well as owner-operators. I would recommend this book to anyone in this profession, as well as a anyone even considering it. The reality is this: a paycheck as high as $700 after working well over 100 hours in a week, is still below minimum wage, and therefore, should not be legal in this country. |
