    Why not? What am I missing when I attempt to read the ad? (my Spanish isn't so good, and translators are far from perfect). It is nice to have options in life, though, isn't it?

    Maybe the company placed an ad like that, to weed out those less motivated.

    You know, I was driving west on I-40, reading the road signs like a good boy, when I realized that drivers who get their CDL in the Spanish language (because they're not literate enough in English, I guess, not talking about their driving skills) can't read those signs. Not all of them. I wonder if that language issue has an impact on the industry safety stats? Just sayin'.

    Starboyjim,

    There is a story I read, will post link when I find it. But there is a direct impact on safety,
    that was my whole point. Wasn't trying to talk down about anybody's driving.

    If you plan on moving to TX better get used to Spanish. Ft Stockton has more whites than Mezicans. But lots of them are in oil patch. Too many Americans getting fat on unemployment and disability. Wish they would cut off most of that. Be amazed at how many would show up for job if they were not going to eat. If you don't like Mex try Oklahoma. They cracked down hard on criminal illegals some years ago. 90% there are either born here or have legit papers.

    Wow wow wow,

    Now. I posted the original post as I thought it was funny and some how didn't relate to safe trucking And bad grammar and all that. hell I live in southern california at present time other than NY. Don't think you can get anymore diversity than that
    i have no problem with Mex. or any other race .

    Big Duker,

    I guess you can get rich on unemployment and disability. Only reason I can think of as too no Americans wanting to work. Know one thing can't wait to get the holy hell out of southern California
    use to be a hell of a place to make a living and live .
