Trucking...

[Anonymous]

Many all of a sudden want to thank truckers for delivering your shit now...



I will explain something:  Work 100 hours per week, log 70 hours in the books (maximum), and get paid for 50.



No overtime, no Stat pay, NOTHING.



When I calculated my total hours for a produce haul from Mexico to Canada, when I was a company driver, I was earning less than minimum wage.



Something to think about.  There are ZERO non-union carriers in Canada that follow Labour Laws, and even a few unionized carriers that don't follow even the most minimal labour laws.



100/70/50, and if you question that, you're fucking fired for some paki that just got fast tracked in to replace you!

There's a man in our congregation that used to work as a long distance truck driver..



He said shorter runs pays better.

I'm sure you could make a lotta money delivering food from Vancouver to the Interior as your own private business, Mel & not driving for anyone.



Just find a supplier who is willing to work with you.



The one thing they don't got where you live now is a coastline hence no local seafood.



There must be a lotta people in the Interior who want it tho.



Anyways I understand why the wages would be shit.



The carrier probably charges their clients at least twice as much for your driving services as youre getting paid because the carrier has to make a profit.



Its like an engineering firm that bills out the service of its engineers at $100 per hour, but the engineer only makes $35 per hour & the profits go into the firm's pockets.

Thats the same in any driving, Fashionists.



For example I heard with the introduction of uber in Vancouver, there still aren't enough vehicles to service clients in the suburbs cuz they all headed downtown where the money is. They figger its better to do 10 short trips, burn less gas than do 1 long one which may use twice as much gas but earn 1/2 as much.



So the coming of uber here didn't solve anything & confirms what was previously thought by many.



There never was a taxi shortage in Vancouver. Just a shortage of drivers willing to pick up clients where the profit margin was low.



And just like trucking its the dame chatacters who've taken over uber as the trucking industry.



The Brown People from Surrey.



The Pakis & the East Indians.



The same shady tactics by the same shady people.

It's very obvious you've never hired anyone or run a medium size business before.

Yup, there are just too many idiots like Joe out there that fails to realized just how stupid they are, lol.



Given what he is only capable of, and if he has no choice but to start up his own business here in Canada, he'll be the first to be killed by ISO organizations warring against each other.

Joe has more time in this pandemic to derail discussions.

No.

Thats a fact.



The emoloyee doesnt get paid an hourly wage that he or she is billed out at to a client.



If the worker makes $20 per hour, the firm will charge the client $40 per hour.



Because of course the company has to pay for other things including employee tax.



The company couldnt make a profit if it was charginh just the employees hourly wage.



Do you think the same arrangement doesnt work in trucking or limousining or bus transport?



The latter 2, the company bills the client $100 an hour and pays the driver $15 to $20 per hour.



Because other bills have to be paid such as gas, insurance, taxes, employee benefits, taxes, permit fees.



There has to be money left over for profit.



Again if the company only charged minimum like $20 to cover the drivers wage, theyd go broke.



Its as simple as that.



Challenge me on my assumptions if u think Im wrong.

You said profits, though still questionable and only applies if you're referring to NP, but saying it goes into their pockets contradicts with what you say.

Pockets, shelf, bank...essentially the same thing.



The cream on top.



Otherwise how could any company be profitable & still continue to operate and stay in business?



Yes there has to be something in it for the business operator.



They have to pocket what they can and retain as much profit for themselves for the busibess to be viable.The employee has to be profitable for them so they can be retained by the company.



Why is that such a bad thing?



Or were you offended because I didn't use a euphimism or politically correct businessspeak terminology?
