Career Research: Truck Driving
By: Casey Gillis
Why Did I Pick This Career?
This past Tuesday we had guest speakers come to our school and talk to the students about what they do for a career. The person that i was most interested in was Mrs Toms. The reason why is because i could relate to her career choices. She talked about how she started her career as a volunteer worker for the fire department, then later on she started working full-time for the fire department. She explained to us that during the time she has worked for the fire department she has drove the fire trucks,worked with the men going into the burning houses, and now she just works the office at the fire station. Mrs toms also talked about how her husband owns his own construction business and that she does all the paperwork for him. The reason that i was most interested in their careers is because I love to drive semis and a fire truck is similar but it doesn't have a 50 ft trailer behind it.
