I did fuel delivery and worked along side many guys with what ever paperwork they needed to drive. Some hard workers some absolute idiots, just like the general population.
The Legal immigrant surge that is coming will hurt drivers pay. Take a drivers course and get to working a ok job right away. Of course many will take this rout. Many more qualified drivers willing to work at a lower wage brings down all truck drivers wages. Simple economics.
What's gonna happen to fuel hauling?

Those at the top don't give a rats butt about you, or your family. They only worship the almighty dollar.
Giving low pay to unqualified illegal immigrants to do the work you used to do will become the norm now.
Just look at what they did with H-1B visa's and the tech industry.
You can work for far less, or go stand in a bread line.Rodeorowdy, RockinChair, snowman1980 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Last time I checked people working in tech industry make pretty good money.
They can’t find enough qualified people to do the job so they bring people from other countries.
Same reason people come here to drive trucks. Not enough interest in truck driving.Last edited: Dec 5, 2020

If that. 2 years ago I was running the exemption every week. Now, fuhghettaboutit. They dont pick up any accounts come January im pulling a box for an ltl.

Yeah, it's funny. Almost all the stations we've been doing the load just fits. And they just asked for volunteers to work Christmas!?!?!? Pa is shutting down due to China flu, until after the 1st, so I don't know what they expect all the extra help to do.
