I am a trucker, and the industry is so jacked up, the corona virus is the least of our worries.

Our company policy was TWO WEEKS notice to set a medical appointment. Now, it is immediate and upon request.

Amazing what happens with group think hysteria.

Poor baby...can’t go into a restaurant and order a hot meal...waiting in line to deliver their goods - shocking!
Cry me a river, assh*le.
Be glad you’ve got a job, and your skills and tools are in high demand.
I might lose my job next week, but you won’t - you’ll still be sitting on your fat ass complaining about how bad your life is.
Pampered dipsh!ts like this making me furious.

Have YOU ever tried taking an 18-wheeler through a drive-up window?

Trump said when this virus is defeated we will have a big celebration. I think at that time there should be a special thank you to the truckers who are keeping things moving.
