“Like mothers, taxes are often misunderstood, but seldom forgotten.” — Lord Bramwell, 19th Century English jurist. Taxes are what we pay for civilized society, Unsure about any other industry but Trucking community and truckers never skip their Taxes. Being said that we know that truckers and the entire Trucking Community are like the seconds hand on a clock working and busy every second. It is quite understandable that they might forget one of the hundred taxes they file.

Luckily people like us who work 8 to 5 in a boring cubicle, may manage a weekend or two to and spare some time to have some summer fun. Is that the same case for Truckers? Truckers these days are so busy transporting goods for our daily use and they don’t even find time to spend with their loved ones. If someone can sacrifice their precious time for the betterment of our nation, then they definitely need to be appreciated for their service. What if we can give them a day’s rest? That they can spend with their near and dear ones. Continue reading
I’ve had a hard life, but my hardships are nothing against the hardships that my father went through in order to get me to where I started. – Bartrand Hubbard. Being a Father itself is a great responsibility and being a Father with Trucking as his business makes him a super dad.
