It is only 30 hours working if you are in a union, mackman. Work 30 paid for 70. :lol:

When are you gonna get this RIGHT, Mackman? Look at your OWN sigline! You LOG 70! You have to WORK nearly 100!
ME? I WORK only about 50. Sometimes, less. And I log what I work.... sort of!  Besides.... aren't you UNION now?

Get your truck all paid for and get yourself another one. Hire yourself a driver for that second truck......and pay him/her UNION WAGES.

Thats BS right there. If we got paid good then it would be harder to get a trucking job. It would not bring wages down.

It depends. If drivers are needed and wages go up as a result more applicants will come until the demand is met by supply then wages fall.
If you could somehow force the wages to be static without bankrupting the employer (lol@ABF) then hiring standards would go up and fewer would be accepted.
