Since deregulation it seems the income of a truck driver has not moved much calculating for inflation adjusted dollars.....
In order to even stay at current income level year after year, wages have to go up but the inflation rate every year..so if u didnt get a raise this year u actually made less depending on the inflation rate.....
So how do we bring the wages up? Tightening standards on drivers to reduce the workforce?? Csa2010 disqualifying drivers?? Unionization? refusing to go work for cheap so those companies cant deliver their freight unless they pay more?
Just some random thoughts to try and spur a discussion, i havent been active here in a long time...
