Meet The Team! This month, we're happy to introduce Matt Cook!
Matt has worked here at Fisher Transportation for 10 years. Over that time, he has enjoyed traveling throughout Michigan, seeing new places, and meeting new people along the way. When asked what is one thing others may not realize about being a Truck Driver, Matt said: "People don't always realize how important stopping distance really is. While it may look like trucks can stop quickly, that is not the case, and it requires extra awareness from everyone on the road."
When it comes to truck snacks, Matt keeps it simple with a go-to combo of Chex Mix and beef sticks. Matt wanted to leave a good tip for any new drivers just getting started: "Saddle up and enjoy the ride, and definitely watch out for others out there, because they're not always watching out for you."
Outside of work, Matt enjoys spending time with his family, especially taking vacations to Florida with his wife and kids, and of course their dog, who he says is basically their third kid. He also enjoys annual Canadian fishing trips each summer, working on his hobby car, and most importantly, watching his children achieve their dreams.
Thanks for all you do, Matt!
