DRIVERS' SHORTAGE DEBATE * USA & Canada
* A New Twist on the Same Shortage
USA -Trucking Blog Network, by Wayne Weisser -10 Aug 2007: -- British Columbia has been extremely vocal about their “driver shortage”. Even more, now that the Olympics are coming to Vancouver. Their idea of a career and a job is amusing... Ask any driver in BC about a driver shortage and you will get the same answer as any where else - There’s only a shortage of drivers willing to work cheap... Like anywhere else, the answer is pay, home time and respect. Local trucking jobs pay less than long haul because employers think drivers will take a pay cut in order to be home. There shouldn’t have to be a compromise in pay or respect. As usual, this is only another ploy to reinforce the driver shortage urban legend. If people and the government see it in print often enough, then it must be true...
