Fuel pay crashing now too??

Yes!

 

Down here All the old higher wage guys are getting sidelined for b.s cpap scam or other health issues or retireing out. Replacements get hired at half what those guys were making. Gonna be bad. Along with handing out cdl’s like participation trophy’s You notice how the cpap thing isn’t a problem if you came across the southern border.

There are TOO many trucking companies, trucks, and drivers. Maybe once 30% of the pool of those things are reduced pay will increase.

 

I have seen rates go up a bit in the last month. Reefer and dryvan prairie states. I actually pulled a few dryvan loads because they paid pretty good. Got a buddy that’s in the Fuel business and he said it’s kind of down over there.

 

I’m glad I got out of there ha ha ha ha

 

Fuel hauling is a cut-rate game, especially with big players like KAG who can afford to haul for cheap in order to win market share.

 

Wages dropped dramatically in 2008 also. My brother in law saw a $100 per load drop in pay hauling oil.

I was making $20 an hour hauling dirt. Wages dropped to $10 an hour to start. The high earners dropped hours. Back then. Trucking was the most popular job because people couldn't find a job.

 

When they ship John Deere jobs down to Mexico, this is what you get. A man has to eat, he'll take a fuel job for less, what else he's supposed to do?

 

you know we should be able to say “it is what it is”. I might get in trouble for saying it. The fact is the foreigners took over the trucking industry, the Russians and the Polish. And we all know that that’s the truth! It wouldn’t be bad them coming over and driving, but they can’t drive. They’re horrible , and that’s the truth and we all know that. Every truck driver out there knows that is the facts. accidents they are causing , insurance companies are outrageous amount of money , that’s why the wages are going down. Companies are in court. They’re getting sued left and right nonstop. They can’t afford it. Sure there was a time just not long ago where they need drivers, but not like that . These clowns can’t drive they’re dangerous. Tell me am I lying?
