Is Trucking the Right Career for You? A Road Map to Trucking Reality in Canada

A Road Map to Trucking Reality in Canada

The open road, the freedom, the sense of independence - trucking captures the imagination of many Canadians. But is it the right career for you? 

Before you jump behind the wheel of a behemoth rig, it's essential to understand the realities of life on the asphalt. 

At Trukademy, we believe in transparency. This blog post is your pre-trip inspection of the trucking world, illuminating its pros, cons, and everything in between.

The Beauty of Trucking:

Trucking isn't just a job; it's a lifestyle. You'll witness sunrises that paint the sky in breathtaking hues, traverse diverse landscapes and experience the pulse of the nation through vibrant cities and quiet towns. 

It's a career for those who crave autonomy and thrive on a sense of accomplishment. The satisfaction of delivering essential goods across vast distances, knowing you're playing a vital role in the economy, is unparalleled.

Challenges:

However, the open road comes with its challenges. Long hours, extended periods away from loved ones, and the responsibility of navigating a massive vehicle through unpredictable weather and traffic conditions demand resilience and focus. 

The isolation can be challenging, and loneliness can creep in on quiet stretches of highway. Living in a truck cab and managing basic needs away from home requires adaptability and resourcefulness.

Skills Required:

The image of a trucker gripping the wheel is iconic, but driving safely and efficiently is just one piece of the puzzle. Mastering pre-trip inspections, understanding load securement, navigating complex regulations, and complying with driver logs are crucial aspects of the job. 

Our comprehensive Pre-Trip Inspection Course equips you with the knowledge and practical skills to ensure the safety of your rig and cargo.

Licensing and Training: 

To hit the road legally, you need the right qualifications. Obtaining your Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration (CVOR) is essential, and our CVOR training provides the expert guidance and preparation you need to ace the test. 

Additionally, a reputable Truck Driving School in Canada like ours offers Truck Driving Programs tailored to your needs, whether you yearn for long-haul adventures or prefer the hustle of local deliveries.

The Financial Landscape:

Let's talk about the bottom line. Trucking can be a lucrative career, with salaries generally well above the national average. However, the income varies depending on factors like route, experience, and company policy. 

Remember, long hours can translate to higher pay but also come with increased expenses like meals and truck stop accommodations. It's crucial to manage your finances wisely and understand the tax implications of this unique lifestyle.

Finding Your Trucking Niche:

The trucking industry is diverse, offering a plethora of options beyond the classic long-haul truck driver. 

Do you enjoy precise maneuvering? Consider specialized hauling of oversized cargo. 

Are you detail-oriented? Tanker hauling might be your calling. 

Refrigerated goods pique your interest, or the fast-paced world of local deliveries ignites your passion. Our experienced instructors can help you discover your niche and tailor your training accordingly.

Making the Call:

Trucking is not for everyone. It demands an independent spirit, a strong work ethic, and a knack for problem-solving. If you crave adventure, are comfortable with solitude, and possess a genuine love for the open road, then trucking could be your perfect fit. 

However, if routine and constant human interaction are essential for your well-being, or if the thought of extended isolation fills you with dread, it's best to explore other options.

Taking the First Step:

If the allure of the road lingers, take the first step! Attend our free information sessions at Trukademy. Hear from experienced drivers, explore our Driver Logs Course, and get a hands-on feel for a truck cabin. 

We're committed to providing you with all the information and resources you need to make an informed decision about your future.

Trucking is more than just a career; it's a choice. Choose wisely, choose honestly, and choose with your heart. Remember, the road will be long, but the journey can be an incredible adventure.

Contact Trukademy today for a free consultation and start your journey towards a rewarding career on the open road. We're here to guide you every step of the way, from getting your license to finding your perfect trucking niche.

DPXDC Prompt #86

Danny and Damian are twins but they never get split up. Their life growing up in the league of assassins was rough and unforgiving. Damian was older by a few minutes but Danny was always seen as the lesser twin in Ras eyes. Danny is seen more as a tool to improve the heir instead of his twin. Talia eventually has enough of one of her babies being seen as inferior and she takes both of them to their dad, Bruce Wayne when they turn 10. They become the Robin twins and train under Batman.

4 years go by and Jason is visiting the manor talking about how his new neighbor Jasmine Fenton (He totally has had parents that had a lab and sounded like they were very close to becoming rouges especially since they’re apparently building a portal to another dimension. They decided to raid the house and investigate the lab. Red Robin and Batman were investigating the computer and files. And both Danny and Damian were investigating the giant hole in the wall. Damian is looking at the circuit board panel on the wall and Danny investigated the giant hole in the wall. Oh no he tripped.

#dp x dc prompt #dp x dc #dc x dp #danny fenton #danny phantom #poor danny #writing prompt #Portal turns on with Danny inside but his family is here to listen to his screams #They we’re trained by the league so if Danny is screaming the pain is 10 times worse than whatever they’re thinking #danny and damian are twins #Everyone else is horrified #Good thing the Fentons carried hazmat suits and Danny put one on before investigating #he was still wearing the domino mask though so those colors get inverted #demon twins au

A train hauling ethanol derailed Thursday morning in Raymond, Minnesota, igniting several rail cars and forcing nearby residents to evacuate, officials said.

Preliminary information suggests 14 of the train’s 40 cars were carrying hazardous material, “including ethanol, which was released – leading to a fire,” US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg told CNN on Thursday.

The train was carrying mixed freight, including ethanol and corn syrup, said Lena Kent, general director of public affairs for BNSF Railway.

Ethanol is a highly flammable chemical. Exposure can lead to coughing, dizziness, the feeling of burning eyes, drowsiness and unconsciousness.

:O an actual post from me! I wanted to give my (fully unwarranted and outsider) opinion on the response to the Ohio derailment. Of course, this is all from the experience and perspective of a hazmat technician who hasn't dealt with large scale environmental disasters like this.

Yes, it's scary. Yes, it's dangerous. Norfolk railroad didn't have the *best* response they could've, but in a real life situation nothing ever goes to plan. The one thing they did right is immediate notification of the EPA.

Now, on to current events. Vinyl chloride is an incredibly dangerous chemical, with the only good form of long distance transportation being by train. I cannot state anything about the status of the safety mechanisms on the rail car, however in a derailment it usually doesn't matter as the car gets punctured anyway. Safety wise, the TLV (Threshold Limit Value) is the acceptable value for continual exposure to a worker over an eight hour period is 1 ppm (part per million). A part per million can be equated to a single drop in 10 gallons of water, this is a very low TLV. OSHA also lists their own values, called PEL (permissible exposure limit), which is 1 ppm for vinyl chloride. Of course, these values are weighted for a chemical worker who is exposed 5 days a week for 8 hours a day. During an environmental disaster the short term exposure levels may be set higher based on recovery needs and other factors (such as being outside in an open area). Most of the other chemicals are toxic only with skin contact, however they are miscible in water.

I know there's a lot of worry about the water supply. The inlets and outlets of all water treatment plants, water inflows, etc are constantly monitored (on average a reading is taken every 2 seconds, 24/7/365, with automated systems to shutdown inflows if certain chemical concentrations are exceeded). These chemicals will most likely flow downstream and join the multitude of other chemicals dissolved in the water from leaking ship tanks, shipyards, military sites, etc. I don't forsee any long-term effects to the water supply after the initial bloom passes downstream.

The soil does need to be removed and remediated, and I believe the EPA is investigating why Norfolk's cleanup contractor didn't do that. The EPA is on your side frens, their number one priority is to keep you safe. They are one of the few alphabet soup agencies that has no ulterior motives.

In short, yes this is scary. I understand those who don't want to return, I would be cautious as well. But this isn't the end of the world, the town isn't going to be destroyed. Within a few months the area should be completely back to normal. Modern chemical monitoring equipment is fantastic and allows for blanket networks of monitoring equipment that can detect chemicals down to parts per billion (1 drop of water in 10,000 gallons of water, the average swimming pool) and smaller.

Drink bottled water, reduce time outside, and monitor your physical health. You can worry yourself sick, literally, the brain is an incredible organ, and the placebo effect works incredibly well. The mayor himself lives two blocks away from the accident, this is going to get solved properly.

If you have any questions feel free to send an ask, I love talking about chemical safety and protecting the environment.

Got home to find that my dog had shredded one of my favorite posters and an entire skein of yarn. So, instead of yelling, I’m going to take my meds (on time for once), put on The West Wing, and write some really, really self-indulgent fluff.

#healthy coping mechanisms: A+ #personal #i'm so just tired y'all #i hate going to work anymore #i hate getting off work because it means going to the apartment to move shit #i've been falling asleep at my console #i need a damn vacation #at least my hazmat training is next weekend #and my CIT training is the next week #i just feel beaten down and defeated

[image description: a half page of pencil drawings of grubs, also known as the Zelseqi Neotenic Beetle. The top left shows a juvenile grub looking up at an adult grub. The juvenile grub has six body segments in addition to its round head. It has three pairs of limbs, two of which are braced against the floor. The last pair is raised off the floor. The adult grub has, as stated by the notes next to it, two pairs of wings, with the larger forewings being a result of two wings fusing into one; the forewings have a divot along the edge of the wing. It has four body segments and two short but functional antennae growing out of its head. A note pointing to its legs notes that they have more developed digits, and are able to grasp things. Both grubs are lightly shaded in a way that gives them a striated look, and the adult grub is noticeably darker than the juvenile; another note between the two mentions that they are darker after metamorphosis (shortened to 'metamorph'). There are spiracles near the base of each segment on both grubs, though the juvenile grub does not have a spiracle on its last body segment.

In the top right is another juvenile grub. It has raised itself to balance only on its hindmost limbs, and its middle pair of limbs are stretched out to either side at a soft angle. It is looking slightly off to the left. The belly of the grub is much lighter than its back. As it is larger than the other juvenile grub, its mouthparts are more easily identifiable. On top is a soft, rounded, w shaped labrum, and underneath are its mandibles, clicked together. Somewhat visible below the mandibles is the labium. Around each mandible is a maxillary palp, which is a short, stalked structure that curves gently around the mandibles and ends in a rounded nub. Only the left labial palp is visible, and the maxillae are not identifiable. There is a small heart doodled next to its face.

Below this is a threat posturing juvenile grub; the threat posturing is indicated to be a type of bluffing. The drawing intersects slightly with the paw of the previous grub. It is turned to one side, displaying most of its body, and is standing low to the ground. Its tail is twitching as a warning, and its mandibles are spread wide, revealing the labium. The paws on this grub are more clearly drawn and labeled: the first pair has three jointed claws, the innermost pair, which are noted to be partially opposable, pointing inward like thumbs; the second pair has two jointed claws; and the third pair has two non-jointed claws that are much longer than those on the other paws. More clearly shown on this grub are the small hairs that grow all over its body, particularly at the edge of where each body segment meets the belly.

The bottom left shows the wing shape and venation of the forewing and hindwing. The forewing is roughly three times as broad and almost twice as long as the hindwing is. Along the outside edge of the forewing is a divot, marked as the fuse point. There are six thick, dark veins running the length of the forewing, and from left to right, they are labeled MP1, CuA1, CuA2, AA2, AAP2, and AP2; all numbers are subscripts. A note pointing to CuA1 mentions that there are some vestigial hamuli that run along the vein's dorsal side. The veins on the hindwing are not labeled, but there is another note pointing to the leading edge of the hindwing that indicates the presence of hamuli to hold the wings together. More annotations pointing to the wing joints note that the forewing has a divot in the node, while the hindwing does not. Below the wings are two extra notes that say the wings do not fold, and that the hindwing is tucked under the forewing at rest.

The bottom right drawing is the dorsal view of an adult grub at rest. The mouthparts protrude from the front of the head, but most of the mandibles and parts of the palps are hidden underneath the labrum. The antennae are swept back slightly. The wings are folded parallel to the grub's body, and the hindwings are not visible underneath the forewings; a note next to the grub reinforces this. Below the grub is another note that says that wing overlap is dependent on grub preference, and there is a 50/50 split on this. The limbs of the grub are not visible. end image description]

one of my more ambitious projects for this au so far tbfh

i present to you, a massive chunk of worldbuilding for dreamless: making the grubs an actual Thing TM instead of whatever the fuck goes on with them in canon. some of this is extrapolated from what they do in canon, but a good chunk is me taking a thing from canon and running the hell away with it. as you do, yknow.

their ‘official’ name is the Zelseqi Neotenic Beetle (Zelseqi because their natural range is mostly in upper Zelseq, which is Unn’s domain, and Neotenic because. they’re neotenic.), but really everyone calls them grubs. they’re this strange beetle species that never quite evolved to be bipedal like most other beetles, but they’re also not ‘non-sapient’ like most hexapedal(?) beetles. they’re mainly herbivorous, often foraging in the leafier parts of Zelseq for roots and leaves and the occasional fruit if they’re lucky, but they’re also detritivores to an extent. they’re fairly shy in the wild, seeing as they’re neotenic; the adult forms have a slightly tougher exoskeleton, but their exocuticles are still not nearly as rigid as most beetles’ are. they prefer hiding and running away from potential predators, and do not generally approach other things.

they also don’t often threat posture, since they’re not very good at fighting either, but for smaller predators/threats where they feel cornered, they will do so in hopes of deterring the predator. it works a fair amount of the time, and they then run away once the threat turns away from them, but when it doesn’t, they screech. they’re capable of producing really shrill vocalizations that almost always throw their attackers off long enough for them to run away and/or burrow into the ground. if that still doesn’t work, then they’ll likely start fighting, but this is unlikely and doesn’t usually end well for the grub. their mandibles still do hurt though.

they’re shy around other creatures, but with other grubs they’re fairly social, often forming small colonies of less than 10 grubs where they share a burrow or burrow system. they don’t generally exhibit much parental care, since even the smallest of larvae are able to scoot outside and nibble on the nearby moss, but social behaviors like grooming aren’t uncommon.

most importantly though is that hallownest has domesticated grubs, and many of them work as service animals for the bugs of hallownest. their high sociability makes them great companions, and they’re also very intelligent and can understand a lot of speech. they’re most often trained to be medical alert grubs, so stuff like warning for panic attacks or an oncoming seizure, but many can also be trained to fetch things for their handlers, and some can be trained to be seeing eye grubs. it really depends on what the handler needs, but there’s generally something for them, and if not, it’s not too difficult for them to establish a new training category.

domesticated grubs are also generally louder than wild grubs as a result of the domestication, but this is mostly true of pet grubs, who do not have constraints on when they can shriek. in public, a grub call is most likely a distress alert for their handler. they’re not sturdy enough to do much intervention work, so if something happens to their handlers and no one is around, grubs will scream to attract the attention of bugs nearby. domesticated grubs are also much more likely to threat posture than their wild counterparts, though this is generally either a service grub protecting its handler from someone who is crossing their boundaries, or a pet grub who simply does not like what it has been presented with.

as a side effect of their domestication, grubs are generally more susceptible to desiccation, and are worse at staying warm than their wild counterparts, especially since hallownest, particularly the City, is typically cooler than Zelseq. care on this front isn’t difficult but does need to be regular, especially keeping the grubs from getting too dried out. as for ensuring that they stay warm, there are a lot of grub sweaters available in the markets, but actually getting it to stay on the grub is another story.

idk explaining my worldbuilding in this post has been kind of clumsy but i think the gist of it got across. basically,, i love the it. i made them better than canon <3

#... really tho #the canon stuff is kind of weird #hollow knight #my art #dreamless au #other stuff i could mention but wasn't sure how to add #they're sort of an intermediate point between going from 'non sapient' (which i need a better name for...) to 'sapient' #so they have the ability to vocalize. most beetle larva are able to talk #grubs don't typically need to but they can be trained to talk if you're dedicated #but that's almost identical to teaching a parrot to talk. and everything else that comes with the package #they also don't fare well in fog canyon because it's gaseous acid everywhere #and they're much more sensitive to that than most bugs are because of their neoteny #so they have to get little grub hazmat suits if they ever have to go to fog canyon for whatever reason #99% of the time it's because they're working and have to stay with their handler though so it's not hard to get your hands on that stuff #i hope this all made sense LMAO most of this is just vibes in my head #asta <3 i love the her #oh and did i mention that a lot of grubs are little shits? because a lot of them are little shits #100% will stare you down and push something off the table
