The 2 auto's we have. Have to be shut off to engage or disengage the pto.
I don't know if there's something else that should have been installed instead.
With a manual. Just push in the clutch.
Also. They auto's won't stay running unless the pto is engaged. None of the tricks work. I'd hate to be without heat or ac while loading or unloading. -
Minimum wage should realistically be the minimum any adult needs to earn to put a roof over their head and basic food on the table without relying on welfare.bryan21384 Thanks this. -
The only place I've heard of rates being real high is Southern Oregon and Connecticut.
jon69 Thanks this. -
Many drivers are also going to companies with lucrative sign on bonuses.
-
Soon it'll be a federal minimum wage.
As for cost of living. That doubled also. So in reality. $15 still won't put a roof over your head.jon69 Thanks this. -
EuropeanTrucker and snowwy Thank this.
-
Soon everything will be standardized where everyone makes $15 hour.
All housing, food, medical, and transportation costs will be afforded for the 15.
Everything will be the same. -
The only way to make more than the standard $15 will be from bonus programs.
-
Everything is not the same.
Inflation has also kicked in. Cost of living has almost doubled.
