Compliments to drivers
Truck drivers will receive cinnamon rolls (Franzbrötchen) and thank-you cards for logistic heroes (Logistikheld) as part of tomorrow’s action. Gifts will be given out in the port and at the airport.
“Truckers are silent, omnipresent heroes” emphasize the creators of the initiative, adding that without professional drivers, our daily functioning would not be possible.
We want to draw attention to this through our actions! Often, people get nervous when trucks form long lines on motorways or make it difficult to in the city. There are a lot of negative emotions and they are mainly directed to drivers who, after all, do their work for the end customer – for us all. If, on the other hand, a yogurt is missing on the shelf in our favorite store, the lack of understanding appears again. We want to make people reflect” – say the organizers.
