[Aligator]

what do you mean manufacturer? He makes 45 now as a machinest but might be losing his job or makjing it hard to stay there. You do like your job? Thank you

I work for a furniture manufacturer. And I see company trucks all the time that do not belong to freight companies. Look around in your area (read the name on the trucks) and I'll bet you can find lots of opportunity.

What is an arduous winter like Silvan??

If it's winter, it's arduous. 90% of the year is winter, and 10% of the year is spring/summer/fall. That's how I feel anyway.

Sellers market, as in more jobs then drivers?

Yep; Big time. Its not just drivers..blue collar jobs in general here are easy to get. I moved here on a monday and was hired for dock-to-driver by wed.

Some of the construction related stuff (Cement, Dirt, etc) has cooled from being red hot last year.

But all the other local gigs like LTL, Trash, Foodservice etc are still strong.
