its not just a simple matter with ur withholdingsHow much more did you get on each check?
It is a matter of your withholdings. If you made the exact same this year, as you did last year, you paid less in taxes. What you "get back" has to do with your withholdings. Pretty simple math.

All fun and games until he is sued for battery and/or ends up with a criminal charge. This internet stuff is funny, but there are real life implications to glorifying ignorant behavior. Namely the erosion of the black family when the dude you refer to as a brotha ends up unable to get a job because of his criminal history. I have an actual brother, and would never advise him to behave like he lacks self control.
But yea, likes on the internet...

I don't disagree. I do think we need to be really careful about automation, though. Companies will always put profit above everything else. If they can eliminate the need for human labor they absolutely will. Uber, for example, will use human drivers until they can use self-driving vehicles.I know. It's also improved jobs where human hands are needed.
Two things can be true
Regarding trucking and automation, wages are already being suppressed. Companies like Amazon are on a race to the bottom to see how much these trucking companies will haul for, and theres not much more room to go down. Like I said previously, automation will cause the skill requirement to change, but not replace drivers altogether. Wages will face downward pressure for the short term, but long term will see prices stabilize and then rise based on the continuing driver shortage and higher required skillset. Unskilled drivers will get laid off or go bankrupt first, company drivers will quit or be reduced while wages drop, and the skilled operators who are left will pivot and adapt. Future drivers will come into the industry with more knowledge and education and be able to demand a higher wage, or these shippers like Amazon and WalMart and Target wont be able to deliver to their customers.
Drivers wont be able to simply drive, they'll need to understand the systems and be able to navigate roads and software. But this will help the industry salvage a future until autonomous systems are fully developed in more than a few decades from now.
This is strictly middle mile trucking, not last mile/home delivery which will be replaced by small robots and drones in the next 5 years.

AMEN COALRADE. We will replace these socialist trucks with MERICAN AUTONOMOUS COAL-POWERED TRUCKS. No more of this imported Chinese trucking. No more of this socialist renewable trucking. COAL FIRED TRUCKS FOREVER. IN PRESIDENT GOD TRUMP WE TRUST.Well said comrade. LIBS ARE TOAST. THE COFFERS ARE OVERFLOWING WITH COALLLLLLLLLL
MAGA is the new word/name for KKK to a good number of conscious black people. Those that know.....know. Also, that’s not battery champ....more like an attempt theft charge IF anything. Either way I truly do support that brotha and any other brotha that does the same...not just for likes on the internet.
Got sexual predator adults being called kids..... jussssssss sayin@ being denied a job for smacking someone's hat off and snatching a stupid flag.
Looks like it took place in a high school too. Both probably juveniles. Dude will probably get detention or not be able to go to the Winter Ball.
FOH.
When you grab something from someone’s hand it is battery, champ. There’s a famous battery case of someone smacking a plate out of someone’s hand.
You remind me of one of those economist in 1999 calling the US recession proof. Better yet, like a coal miner in the 1970s thinking things will always be wavy. Completely ignoring the flank
Famb, billions of dollars are being spent to make this happen. You can't assume that money is on a fool's errand.
Even if it won't wipe out all those jobs, autonomous freight vehicles gives companies more leverage to suppress wages and break unions.
Keep human in the trucks to handle small road city driving, then you autopilot features for highways. The machine is doing half the work, so why should the human get all the pay.
Full of anecdotes and your own experience. Plenty of drivers earn a decent living (>$60,000 a year). You may not be replaced by a self driving car specifically, but if you think automation will have no effect on truck drivers in general in 10-20 years then you're deluded. I'm not going to go do the research and pull up stats for you, you can keep to your anecdotes and personal experience. It's coolSir boomhauer, you sound like a lot of people who aren’t in the industry but did a little reading.
Rule number one of driving. Work for a company that has trucks, not a trucking company.
Trucking companies are already bottom of the barrel jobs. Do some research on swift of knight. They are awful companies that will do anything to screw you out of your pay. There is more to trucking than freight.
Their wages are already so low that you lost already working for one of them...
I work for a billion dollar concrete company that doesn’t invest in robot trucks... I do most my driving off road, auto pilot trucks aren’t going there. That’s not even most of it I’m checking the quality and adjusting it as needed and finally placing it whenever it goes. I’ll be dead by the time a robot can do my job.
It’s hard to give examples because me and you have a different idea of what goes into driving but even if dock bumping freight drivers get replaced there is a million more hands on jobs that won’t be.
City route driving, snow plows, all construction cdl jobs, trash trucks, roll off dumpster trucks, booze delivery, food delivery, I could go on forever.
Wages for freight drivers are already in the toilet, they aren’t gonna have anyone to man the auto pilot truck for even less pay. Why would someone take that job to do all the “hard” driving while the robot does the rest for even less pay?
People have been trying to get driverless trucks going forever. The latest one I heard of got bullied into not moving because cars kept cutting it off in a traffic jam.
I’m sure some trucking will get automated. It already has in a lot of way but all it really has done is saved the driver from wear and tear on their body.
Did you skip the part that says in 10-20 years? Quick google shows average truck driver salary is above $70,000. That's far from the low-wage bottom of the toilet description you gave. Again, maybe trucks don't effect drivers who do off-roads i.e. you.Ok, so I have personal experience on the subject we’re debating and you’re using that against me? get real man.
If anyone can speak on the subject it’s me.
I know all about the automated trucks, show me one that can replace a person.
