Construction jobs, for example, pay on par or better and allow workers to be home more with their families. Long-distance truckers can be on the road for weeks at a time.



$40,000 Bonuses

Covenant Transportation Group Inc. is offering a $40,000 bonus to persuade more drivers to work in teams, which boosts the usage of the company’s trucks by having one person rest while the other takes the wheel. That will help Covenant meet “extremely strong” freight demand, Chief Financial Officer Richard Cribbs said in a Jan. 30 conference call.



Maybe Nikola can start a dating agency for truck drivers as an addition to his successful business model. LOL

But more seriously this can hurt the sector as a hole especially the smaller trucking companies who have less investment capital to keep up with the big corporates:

Further complicating recruitment efforts is the risk that younger truckers will be replaced by driverless semis in the not-too-distant future.
