From trucker to essential worker in one month

I started the month of March as a trucker, and ended the month as an essential worker. This was the story for every worker that is part of the supply chain. What we are all learning is that we are deeply interdependent. Gone are the days of thinking that any line of work is unimportant or insignificant in its contribution to the whole. The term ‘unskilled labor’ has carried with it the belief that anyone can do these types of jobs. We are learning otherwise.
