    L.A.P.D. is not enforcing the mandates for their own force. Nor is anyone complaining about it.
    Wonder why?

    2000 firefighters are staying home in NYC now.

    The mayor elect of NYC said he will not enforce the mandates.

    The kooks in DC are simply not in touch with reality.

    The vaccination and testing requirements would apply to “truck drivers who work in teams (i.e., two people in a truck cab), or those who interact with people in buildings at their destinations or starting points,” a Labor Department spokesperson told CNBC

    So if you go to shipper or receiver and there is a guard you're going to have to be vaccinated.

    If you walk into a shipping or receiving office you're going to have to be vaccinated.

    If you work somewhere you have to walk into a building in the morning and get your paperwork and your keys you're going to have to be vaccinated.

    Who is it exactly that they think is it going to be exempt from this under that rule?

    Me. I'm exempt. Cause I'm not getting vaccinated.

    Out of all the places I go, only one is even remotely using masks, etc.

    It's called reality. The nutbags got a huge dose of that last Tuesday.

    Lol. You just made me realize that new truckers need to be vaccinated, since they will be training with a trainer.

    so there goes the supply part.

    When have the idiots in DC ever been I touch with reality ???!

    yet they keep getting re elected every time .


    And are we talking about the same truckers that have been essential workers for the last two years and have managed to keep working without a vaccine for the last two years ????

    same as the healthcare workers .
    They managed to work in hospitals for two years without a vaccine and are still alive , yet now they have to get one ?

    It’s because we stopped caring and voicing concerns and started saying it doesn’t bother me so I shouldn’t care.

    leaving the new generation to become dumber and dumber.

    In fact most of us don’t speak our minds to newbs because of fear of getting banned on here.
