that and for the last few years they have been telling kids that self driving trucks will put them out of the job, of course it might be 20 years before that happens, or maybe the shortage of drivers willing to work at the wage they offer will lead to higher wages and/or an acceleration of the adoption of self driving technology. How much would it take to get you back behind the wheel?

at one time I enjoyed it immensely...but the job changed.

"officer...I had an automobile accident'

"Was there a truck anywhere nearby?

"There was one two or three miles away..two blocks over."

(true story...happened to me)

I sleep on a bed of nails for free but I don't think I would return to my old job for any amount of money... less than half a million a year and even then I would have to think about it.
