The trucking industry is responding to a critical shortage of drivers in three basic ways: making the job easier, raising pay and recruiting drivers who don't fit old trucker stereotypes –– like women.

So democracy works only when demand is high? are we learning anything yet?

Truckers & truck stops are in for a culture change .... I imagine fairly soon someone will begin selling tickets to that comedy show?

After what? 90 years?

Women, LGBTQ, people of color? Good luck to the trucking industry. I wouldn't want to work for an industry that, from the highway, looks like the vanguard of cultural conservatism.

Gender neutral lot lizards

They should've done this sooner 😑

Have you been to a truck stop? Or even other parts of the country? It’s not that inviting.

It's driving a truck, largely in isolation. Nothing matters except whether or not you enjoy driving. What the hell does color/orientation have to do with it?

Don’t worry democrats are working hard to bring in more cheap labor so they can keep wages low.

their building in a place for the women, think their women, and gays to put their purses.

or, they could just pay more. currently, a majority of OTR drivers earn about $50k year at a job where the average lifespan is 61 years old due to the stress on the body. they need to be paying $60-75k, at least. amazon prime should cost about $40 a month to cover this cost.

Soon the trucks will drive themselves.

Don’t worry, the new green dealio will destroy all of this.

So the reverse of this statement is: Trucking Industry Admits to Being Racist, Changes to Survive?

There is not shortage of drivers. There is pay shortage.

*facing a shortage of drivers at the rates being offered.

I know who could drive trucks. Immigrants

PeachesJenkins3 I thought that industry was going to be AI soon?

🙄🙄🙄🙄

Train recent ex-cons to be truck drivers!

You really want to make trucking more welcoming, companies need too share the damn wealth, more money puts drivers in seats.

It's all gonna be automated driving within a few years. I don't know how much I'd devote to a new career driving trucks

Dahhhhh!

the prospect of showering at truck stops has to appeal to at least one of those groups.

'What! Can't get enough white men? Okay let's get some of those other folks.'

Those truck stop gloryholes are already LGBTQ friendly, am I right?

;/ ohplease

20+ years in the industry.. and I can testify there's no shortage of LGBTQRSLMNOP's

I don't care

The truck stops have always been full of them.

That won't happen with,mass immigration

Good result, wrong reason.
