The Port Strike Could Destroy Trucking - 9/18/2024

This will mess up a lot up.! It will be a slow affect on the entire Trucking Industry.

 

Port workers striking for more pay and truck drivers chasing the $1 a mile freight like it's going out of style

 

Thats why they offer pizza for lunch and potluck Tuesday. These 2 things alone should be enough for the pheasants.

 

so i'm starting cdl school soon is it even worth it to go while this is happening

 

Yes

 

The Union has rejected 50% raise better retirement and no automation. And wont come to bargining table.....

 

Maybe they can learn to Code?

 

If this is true, that is the most insane thing I have ever heard ever.

 

"The alliance also raised its offer to boost wages by almost 50%, triple employer contributions to retirement plans, and retain the current language around automation."

The sticking point is 'retain the current language' which apparently doesn't mean much. A 50% wage increase doesn't mean much if the job no longer exists.

 

Ever ?
