[QUOTE="admin, post: 32, member: 1"] There has been a need for more[B] truck drivers[/B] for years, but it's continuing to get worse as trucking companies struggle to fill open positions. "Sometimes we go months without having anybody apply," said Daniel Amador, co-owner of Dan's Transport in Waco. "We have a sign posted all the time, we just don't really get anybody in." Dan's Transport has been open for years, but Amador said the shortage of truck drivers continues to get worse as time goes on. John Esparza, president and CEO of the Texas Trucking Association, said the shortage has been ongoing long before the COVID pandemic and it's hard to pinpoint the exact cause.
