 Trucking Jobs Shrinking |
|
|
| More and more drivers have decided that it isn't so bad where they already are. It used to be that almost every truck driver was always looking for greener pastures, and would change jobs at the slightest hint of a problem with their current job, or even the remote possibility of a step up somewhere else. Well, times have changed in this economic slump, and more and more drivers are staying put, and "putting up" with cutbacks and belt tightening that they would never have stood for just a couple years ago. But this isn't all bad news for truckers. Many drivers who would normally be changing jobs every 6 to 9 months, are suddenly realizing that stayin on with a company during tough times can actaully benefit them. Seniority can help a driver's bottom line tremendously. Vacation pay, being next in line for a new truck, becoming eligible for a 401k plan, are all benefits that many drivers never got when they were job hopping. During tough times vacation is not always usable, but the pay always is. So whether you are a job hopper, or a lifer, there is always something to be positive about, and trucking really needs something to be positive about. |

| Economic Turnaround in Trucking? |
|
|
| So we all know that trucking is a leading indicator of the future economic state of our country, leading the other industries by about 6 months. So we want to know, have you seen any turnaround in your jobs, the number of loads you're hauling, the rates of pay for loads? Let us know if you think the economy is headed for better times or more of the past 9 months. |

| Bailout - Where's the trucker's checks? |
|
|
| So the democrats have passed a stimulus bill in the house and are working on it in the senate. Included in these bills are hundreds of millions of dollars for undeserving companies and groups of people. What about the hard working trucker drivers out there, who have been hammered by high fuel prices for most of last year, and are close to going over the edge because of being slow payed by their customers? Where's OUR bailout? Seems to me that the only people being bailed out are the people who need to be PAID BACK for helping to get Obama elected. Seems to me that re-sodding the lawn and handing out condoms to jobless bums only worsens the problem. I can't think of a better time to implement the FLAT TAX. |

| Let Us Give Thanks |
|
|
It's the time of year when we all stop our busy lives and say thanks to the people that help us do what we do. I want to take this time to say "Thank-you" to all the drivers who work so hard throughout the year delivering food and goods that keep this country running, in good times and in bad. The economy is not doing so well right now, and most of us are feeling the pinch. But I'm sure if you look deep enough, you have some things to be thankful for. Living in the best country in the world is a good start for me personally. Having a job, or the ability to find a new one. Having a family that loves you. A smiling waitress at the last truckstop you ate in.
Whatever you're thankful for, we ate truckdrivingcdljobs.com hope that your Thanksgiving is a happy one.
Keep on truckin'! |
