It's that time of year again when the Teamsters celebrate Truck Driver Appreciation Week. Last year, we asked Teamsters to submit photos of themselves and their trucks to the Teamsters Facebook page. The response was overwhelming. Hundreds of Teamsters sent in photos, along with comments like the ones below.
This year, we're again asking Teamsters to send us photos of themselves and their trucks -- either by posting on the Teamsters Facebook page or by sending a direct message to the page.
We're looking forward to seeing more great photos and comments like the ones below:
James F. Giles Everything everyone in America owns, eats, or uses got here on a truck - thanks, Teamsters.

Lenore Lopez I appreciate truck drivers, I wish more employers would respect the physical and mental demands of the job.
Wayne Robertson Funny how when I'm on 2 wheels I worry less about them than I do the soccer mom in the grocery-getter. But I'm not invisible to them, and the living they make depends on their safety and courtesy!
Sandie Hawley where would we be without truckers, God bless em.
