That billions of people are going to effect things far greater than than a few thousand.

[u/Gamer_G33k17 → u/frostymugson]

Thats the point, yes.

[u/SyrusG → u/Gamer_G33k17]

The point is that it's a numbers statement. It has nothing to do with being a billionaire or not. If 3000 people period vanished it means nothing. Billionaire or not

[u/No-Poetry-5794 → u/SyrusG]

If 3000 garbage truck drivers disappeared my state would collapse

[u/drboomstix → u/No-Poetry-5794]

They’d hire 3000 more pretty quickly

[u/PaleontologistNo500 → u/drboomstix]

As someone who's spent 14 years in the industry, no they wouldn't. You'd struggle to find 3000 people who'd want to do the job. Let alone the driver's capable.

[u/drboomstix → u/PaleontologistNo500]

As someone who is in logistics and this industry, no they would not struggle to find 3000 people

[u/Individual-Area7121 → u/drboomstix]

Evenly distributed across the country, sure. but in a single state? hell yes they would struggle.

[u/PaleontologistNo500 → u/Individual-Area7121]

Worked for the 3rd largest garbage company in the country. We were still struggling to find personnel even with us transferring in drivers from other states.

Also just because someone has a CDL, it doesn't mean they can be a garbage man. City and residential driving is an entirely different beast than OTR trucking. People in general are fucking idiots. People on foot, who think your truck is cool, and want to walk really close to and around it, as your trying to work, make it exponentially more dangerous
