        Free or income based CDL training would solve the issue quickly

        Hire the boomers who got kicked out of the workforce in the recession. They're everywhere.

        Totally not true. Perhaps a tad slower, but many gems in public life are old- look at all they accomplish.

        The free market is beginning to take it's course. Wages will rise. Benefits will increase. Employers who need good people are sweetening the pot!!

        1. What's the "real" unemployment number? (Recall that these numbers don't include folks who drop out of the employment market) 2. Perhaps the job doesn't pay enough/doesn't provide enough hours to induce people to apply.

        While sitting behind a desk this may seem like a low skilled job that can be easily filled, Go apply and give it a shot, i'm sure you will run screaming from the truck the first day!

        Are you seriously trying to go snobbish about operating a truck? lol Seriously, you are operating a machine that someone "sitting behind a desk" designed to ensure that even people like you would be capable of operating it.

        Honey I spent 48 years behind the wheel, I started in 1968 and retired in 2016 I know what it takes to operate a truck and you cant put a "Steering Wheel Holder" in a big plow!

        Companies cannot find workers because the wages are too low. Greed.

        Yes the company of The Maine State Department of Transportation. A department of the state of Maine is too greedy to raise wages to attrwcy drivers to plow roads they don't get paid to plow. Read the article next time before you comment.

        the next thing to look at is those underemployed and those who are on public assistance and don't want to work. Temp job or permanent?
