From Trucker to Trainer: James Murphy's CDL Training Secrets

Find a job you love and you’ll never work a day in your life, they say. And if that were to apply to anyone, it applies to James Murphy. It’s quite apparent that the trucker-turned-CDL trainer loves what he does. From the trucking movies that inspired him to become a trucker in the first place to his pivot toward training and his impressions of the up-and-coming crop of truck drivers, we find out what makes James tick. Then we talk with someone James namedrops in the conversation: Sylvia Dodson of OOIDA, who’s been with the Association since the Reagan administration. Sylvia takes us back to those early days, and fills us in on what keeps her going (hint: it’s you).
