Will there be far less drivers due to Coronavirus? Think of the many schooling/training challenges

Doubt that man.....this ain't limited to the United States.....

 

I would say it's a good time to drive. I've had one bad week, but it's been pretty steady money through the pandemic. I've kept to myself as much as possible, trying to be as safe as possible. I haven't been as quick to ask for hometime since I live in Memphis, and it's way out of control there. It may actually be safer to be on the road since a driver is constantly moving. I have gone to high infected zones, and I've been fortunate enough to not get infected, all I can do is protect myself as much as possible.

 

Yep, same here. I’m single, so when I go back to my hometown for my home days off, it’s like “what the heck is there to do”. Everything is closed, nobody’s out doing anything, nobody wants to do anything so I’ve just been staying out longer figuring I might as well earn some extra money.

This virus isn’t going away. We are going to have to beat it via a vaccine or something or just let it do it’s thing. They’re finding out at best we get a couple months immunity, so that means this #### thing is just gonna keep going round and round.

 

I know it man.....the scary part is once it starts to get cold again. It may have even more steam than before once the temp drops. You have the right attitude, because at some point the freight will slow. I'm trying to get it while the getting is good

 

Neither is our government

 

Maybe CR England can't keep doing the 3 bunk trucks. That's have to be fun 3 guys in one truck

 

You know if there was one area of population that you should see staggering amounts of Covid infections, that would be truck drivers.

They are a Populace that meets at one crowded gathering point or another daily all over the United States.

And most of them their Hygiene is severely questionable.

You would think most of the showers or toilets would be unusable because there is a dead trucker in or on it.

So why aren’t we hearing or seeing cases that would verify the inevitable?

I’m down here in Florida and other than my ex’s coworker dying early on, which looking back at it the death was probably mislabeled because of the suddenness she died, I don’t or any of my friends know someone that has been hospitalized.

Me and all my friends and colleagues know very few people who have been diagnosed with it.

When I came down to Florida in November I went to see my longtime buddy at his shop.

Asked to go have a beer and catchup. He said he had just gotten over a 2week respiratory illness and was going to take it easy

Than in January I got a respiratory illness. Knocked me down for 6 weeks.

But I have been sicker. This one just dragged out.

My buddy I just spoke about , his teenage kid was tested at work and came up positive for the antibodies.

My buddy said yea , his son was sick for a week right after he was sick but it didn’t affect his son much.

So my buddy suggests his other 2 boys that live with him to go down and get tested .

They drive down and get in line and give all their info.

An hour into the line no test and one of the boys needs to use the John. So they drive off and agree it’s too long of a wait so forget going back to get tested.

A week later they both get forms in the mail saying they tested Positive for Covid.

This is no BS or a political statement.

Just the Facts directly from my best buddies mouth ..

 

I’ve been saying this since almost day one that I think all of this is some kind of conspiracy. I don’t have any idea what it might be for or what the end result might be, but all of this has just been really freaking weird.

 

So Florida is the HotSpot of the World supposedly.

I have never heard it so quiet here in Naples. No Wailing cop cars or constant fire trucks and ambulances .

Usually during season it’s nonstop.

Buts it’s not season and people are supposedly sick and dying everywhere here.

I drive by the hospital emergency entrance daily on my way to the beach and it is Quiet.

 

Huh? What are you talking about?
