Amazon’s new plan

If trucking actually paid the bills I'm sure more of us with a valid license would be interested in actually driving for a living. As it stands, I'm far better off as a tradesman. Home every night, weekends off and plenty of time to enjoy living.

 

All the same crap in Canada, a race to the bottom, trucking is the only industry that goes backwards in wages/rates. Guess it’s blasphemy to expect a living wage these days without spending 100 hours a week at a job. Everyone wants to work harder and wear out their trucks and bodies than work smarter and have a better quality life.....

 

Not the only industry on its way to the bottom. A lot are headed that way. “I.T.” anyone?

 

Or construction, lawn care, property management, etc...

 

Foreign drivers are high quality? One hit my mirror with his shipping container while driving in fast to gut into an exit with a mile of cars waiting. They do this with no courteously. Blocking the fuel pump to go inside, eat, come out, move up and go back in to take a shower. Bad driving and care of vehicles. No I do not have no respect in general for the foreign drivers.
