Come on, a few months ago???來吧,幾個月前??? England hauls Hazmat what happened to their background check of this guy?英國珍品核生化事故所發生的背景檢查這個傢伙?

It's no secret the trucking industry has 這已經不是什麼秘密貨運業

coming, but then, they have a challenge. 未來,但隨後,他們有一個挑戰。

Now come the excuses -現在來的藉口-

Dan England, CEO, CR England, Inc.: "There is a constant need for 丹英國,總裁,鉻英國公司:“有一個不斷需要
drivers and we hire over 100 drivers every week of the year." 司機和我們聘請了100名駕駛每週一年。“

A new study shows that the annual turnover rate for big trucking 一項新的研究顯示每年流失率為大貨車
companies is 130%. 公司是130%。 That means to keep a thousand trucks running they 這意味著1000保持運行他們的卡車

England to accept drivers with much less experience. 英國接受駕駛經驗少得多。 But they insist 但他們堅持
they have not lowered their standards. 他們並沒有降低他們的標準。

Isn't that lowering their standards?這不是降低標準? A hundred drivers every week.甲100司機每星期。 That's mind boggling to me.這是令人震驚的我。 How can they check everyone's records and all those drug screens they're paying for and the time and training, Time and training??他們如何檢查每個人的記錄,所有這些藥物屏幕他們支付的時間和培訓,時間和訓練?? What in the world was I thinking??在世界上什麼是我在想什麼?? The "Driver Trainers" make money while the student is driving and then the company makes even more money by teaming their students together, running them as teams while paying them student pay.  Wouldn't it be cheaper to just give the good people they have a raise so they stick around? “驅動程序培訓”賺錢,而學生在駕車時,則該公司使更多的錢由他們的學生一起聯手,運行它們作為一個團隊,而支付給他們的學生。豈不便宜只給善良的人,他們有所以他們加薪等? But then, they'd lose out on all that cheap labor.但是,他們會失去了所有的廉價勞動力。 Sometimes, you get what you pay for.有時候,你得到什麼您支付。

Now comes the spin – (hold on!)現在到了自旋- (持有!)

Dan England: "When you are hiring that many people, you're once丹英國:“當你僱用很多人,你一次
in a while going to get someone whose behavior you can't condone."在一段時間會得到別人的行為,你不能寬恕。“

We still haven't determined whether Wilson has a police record.我們還沒有決定是否威爾遜警察記錄在案。
His employers say that's part of their problem too, they can't easily他的雇主說,這是問題的一部分,他們也不能輕易
get reliable records.獲得可靠的記錄。 In Wilson's case he denied being a drug user or在威爾遜的情況下,他否認自己是吸毒者或
having a police record both times they hired him.有一個警察的記錄,兩次他們僱用他。

He DENIED being a drug user or having a police record?否認自己是吸毒者或有犯罪記錄? That's got to be my second favorite line in here.那就是我們是我第二次在這裡最喜歡的一句話。 Good job England!英格蘭好!

Now, to get a Hazmat endorsement or even renew the endorsement you already have (I know for sure in Nevada) you have to have a background check.  But I guess they hire so many, a few are going to slip through the cracks.現在,為了獲得核生化事故認可,甚至延長您已經認可(我肯定知道在內華達州),你必須有一個背景調查。但我想他們聘請這麼多,有少數人會滑向底層。 They'll probably be saying that when the next incident  happens to be a terrorist instead of a stupid drug addict.他們會說,可能在下次事件恰好是恐怖分子,而不是一個愚蠢的吸毒者。
