Zig Forums OTR Trucking/Truckers

BEFORE THE AI TRUCK-BOTS FROM AMAZON TAKE OVER
One of the main challenges in trucking is the ability to find individuals who are fine by themselves independent problem solvers with an almost autistic ability to focus

"THE TRUCKING INDUSTRY, the backbone of the U.S. economy, is carrying more weight than ever despite a critical shortage of drivers. And now this compression point is sending waves of pain through the supply chain from distributors and wholesalers to retailers and consumers in the form of fast-rising shipping costs. Even Amazon and its Prime members are feeling the pinch.

This predicament was a long time coming. An aging driver population that continues to dwindle owing to retirement—combined with a lack of younger workers coming into the industry—is a problem that has been festering for 15 years. The Great Recession and the years of recovery that followed largely masked the problem. But by 2012, with the U.S. economy strengthening, fissures began to show.

Trucks moved more than 70% of all U.S. freight and generated $719 billion in revenue in 2017, according to the American Trucking Associations (ATA).

“We could see the demographics, and now they’re finally hitting home,” says Brian Fielkow, president and CEO of Jetco Delivery, a trucking and logistics company based in Houston. “This isn’t something we just woke up to.”

The pain point is specific. The industry calls them “full-truckload, over-the-road nonlocal drivers,” jargon for drivers who haul goods over long distances, often days, if not weeks, before returning home. That lifestyle just isn’t attracting millennials and the incoming Gen Z cohort who place a greater emphasis on work/life balance.

The long-haul sector, which employs around 500,000, was in need of nearly 51,000 truck drivers by the end of 2017, the worst shortage it had ever seen."

Quit teaching kids that you're a piece of shit if you don't go to college and maybe some will become truck drivers. AI truckbots is 8 million unemployed.

Back in the day drivers drove and didn't have to go through all the fucking classes and crap. These days it's a pain in the ass to get and keep your CDL. The drivers are held accountable for everything including not following the burdensome regulations that management insists you cheat to make a delivery on time so they can keep running narrower margins. And having to put up with so many more assholes on the road, it just isn't worth it.
Sooner they automate that end of things the better.

We used to have a way to move freight that only required 5, maybe 10 people per 100 trailers moved…. oh yeah! It was called RAIL.

Truckers are the stage coach haulers of the late 19th century, just waiting for steam and internal combustion to render them Amazon Greeters.

Put more freight on trains. Let railways use eminent domain to get the space they need for more track.

Railroading is one of the whitest industries left tbh, takes too much intelligence for most shitskins but the work is also too hard for most kikes.

What's the point of this thread?

Trucking companies are corrupt as fuck. Every trucker knows this. They're EVIL. They deserve to lose their employees because they fuck them in the ass at every turn.

No there isn't
I could go on…
But there's no snow?

Worst career choice an user could make.
Do it for a year, see the country. You'll come home with anal pallups from no being allowed to shit but then take that money and go be an electrician or something.

what a bunch of faggots

I remember in my country (Brazil) that in the 60s a Jewish Czech president made a (((deal))) with truck manufacturers to switch from a railroad based logistics to truck based.
Now truckers ship most of our stuff and destroy highways via the massive ground pressure they inflict.
I wonder if something like that happened in America.

lol. Good lucking finding a place to sleep tonight, Monster Energy blood pissing bro.

Automated death machines that can easily be taken control of by alphabet niggers to eliminate domestic problems.
What could go wrong.
