What's the cause? Labor shortage? Simply over network capacity?

It's more labour shortage.
Not enough staff at the terminals and not enough truckers to take containers from terminals to the final destination.

When are we getting robotic replacements for all that worthless flesh that can't even work properly?

Gimme some free trucker training and I'll do it. Not paying like 3 grand to sit in a cramped school for god knows how long all while surrounded by rough motherfuckers just to drive a truck.

sometimes, when a plant is too damaged, you can't nurse it back to health no matter how hard work and care you put into it. you just have to let it die and pot a new one.

maybe America will escape its labour shortage by the end of the century.

America would escape its labor shortage in a week if they shut off the wuflu gibs.

o cont raere I think most americans would rather starve to death, totally immobile, rather than expend any amount of effort on anything, like not joking I'm dead serious

Fucking this. All these “labor shortages” but no company will pay for training worth a damn.
I just said fuck it, and I’m going to get my A&P license to work on airplanes. Atleast that training will pay for itself the first year I work. CDL training sounds like hell, especially on your own dime.

You also get to sleep at home every night.

Trucking/railroading sucks in that regard. For the number of hours you're away from home, the pay isn't that great

Where do you get that impression? Americans are like Japs in being workbots. Actually striking would do them some good.
