Ive got a much better idea..everyone just abandon their trucks while under load..leave trucks scattered all over the country...Lol
crb Thanks this. -
Instead of a strike, how about a lawsuit tying our pay to the eLogs?
(Or get the Labor Department to stop classifying us as "unskilled labor"?)
The real loss in income is all the uncompensated time at loading/unloading and unpaid "areas of responsibility"
ie: I can be fined if I miss an item on my pre-trip but I'm not paid (or according to the Labor Department, qualified!) to do it.Dharok, jethro712 and Midnightrider909 Thank this. -

You will never strike the USA. Too many cats. And always a few alleys hungry and starving to haul something for price of a meal.
Sit and think about it. If you did stop the food, gas and mission critical loads the USA will be descent into anarchy requiring Military Occupation in a very short time.
American Truckers with experience are very expensive, they are slowly being replaced first by two immigrants in two trucks for double the revenue and eventually by Ottos. (Computer trucks.)
Assume 20 years from now everything is delivered by Robots, YOU the striker will have nothing to do with trucking then, maybe serving as a fetch it boy feeding them fuel for a basic living wage.Dharok Thanks this. -
