  • Truckers: A Road Well Traveled (2001 Canada)
    Genre: Documentary about Truckers live in Canada and North America
    "Day or night, there are about 4 million trucks on North American roads, criss-crossing the continent with an endless flow of goods. It appears to be a simple job, but for those who drive big rigs for a living, life on the road takes its toll. This documentary takes a fascinating look at the lives of several long-haul drivers, mixing behind-the-scenes footage with lively interviews. Sharing their stories are Stu Lorencz and Ed Lockwood, whose route takes them through the Arctic, and Don Lee, who drives a lengthy circuit from Canada through the United States."
    Director: Tom Dodd

      That's not uncommon when you factor in how many hours they put in, most aren't paid for any thing but loaded miles driven, so no pay for delivering, picking up or fueling and inspections etc. What other job would require you to away from home 24/7 and only pay you a maximum of 11 hours per day ( that's how many hours you can drive) and no overtime plus they have to pay for meals, showers and laundry

      this is quite a common statement I've heard before. sometimes as low as 2 and hour.. math says 5 x 24 x 7 x 52 = 43k a year if he worked and never stopped... a bit of a stretch I'm sure but you get the idea. i often wonder why they keep doing it if the wages are truly that low.
