Retirement....The Job I Was Born To Have!

Another point I am trying to show is you never see these people working LTL because they cannot prove residency, and truckload, container, and green- purple package are notorious for hiring anyone they can get to put behind the wheel. Most ltl hiring requirements with background checks, hazmat and so on keep most, but not all of these people out of our business. So basically now the government is treating us, like the foreign people should have been screened for years. Or at least since 9-11.
I think it's ironic to hear the press work themselves into a lather about Syrian refugees fleeing a war zone, or certain politicians demonizing whole races,.........when the reality is that big business wants the borders as wide open as they need. Between HB-1, and HB-2 visas, and completely ignoring the E-Verify Act, the old business axiom about the cheapest way to lower wages is to double the size of the Labor pool,......any so-called terrorist cells that are in this nation are here at the behest of business,......because it's profitable.
Ain't nothing that inspired more terror in me than to be passed on the PA Turnpike at about 80 mph,.......by a guy you KNOW can't speak English........pushing 40 tons down the mountain......
If our Elected Leaders would go stand outside of a food warehouse, or go into a truck stop, .........I think that would inspire quite a bit of terror.
