Wages have basically equalized across the board at this point, because I'm pretty sure corporations want to pay Americans about $60,000 or less on average for literally anything.
So if you're still doing blue collar work today? An office worker makes what you make, so you must be stupid to do hard labor, let alone live in a semi truck for the same money that Carol in accounting makes.
Another problem is that because wages have stagnated due to the weakening of unions in the trucking sector, in many cases, present company of course excluded, trucking can no longer attract the best and brightest.
Trucking companies have sought to service their customers at the expense of their employees for years, and now have a safety and image problem of their own doing.Texas_hwy_287, Rctruck87, alds and 4 others Thank this. -
If you go to a place where trucks aren't allowed, you will still see trash and pee bottles. The scum of society isn't only in trucks.

Anxiety levels are high. People are frustrated, looking to vent their anger. Never satisfied. Seems to be getting worse. A lot of Occupations are subject to rude people. Not just Truckers. Ask any Worker, that deals with the Public.
