In recent months, supply chain problems have been blamed for shortages affecting just about every sector of industry and commerce. But what exactly is broken, and why?

近几个月来,供应链问题被认为是影响几乎所有工业和商业部门的短缺的原因。但到底问题出在哪里,为什么?

Truckers, if you are reading this.... Thank you. Your work is appreciated.

卡车司机们,如果你正在阅读这篇文章……谢谢你们!我很欣赏你们的工作。

why do I get the feeling a “trucking driving shortage” is only half the story

为什么我觉得“卡车司机短缺”只是部分原因

Made/Grown in the USA doesn’t need to be brought by ships that can’t dock at ports …
SUPPORT OUR Manufacturing/Farmers !!

美国制造和美国农作物不需要由无法停靠港口的船只运来……
支持我们的制造业和农民!!

This segment completely glossed over the fact that truck drivers have been taken advantage of for years... being away from home for days or even weeks at a time, living in a truck full time, while only getting paid when the truck is rolling... essentially being used as storage through being required to sit at docks for days at a time waiting to be loaded or unloaded. It's going to get harder and harder to find people who want to do this for a living because it just isn't worth the hassles. It's time for the industry to take a hard look at how freight is handled and how drivers are treated.

这部分完全掩盖了卡车司机多年来一直被利用的事实。一次离家好几天甚至几周,整天住在卡车里,只有在卡车开动的时候才能拿到工资……本质上被用作仓库,因为需要在码头上一坐就是几天,等待装卸货物。想要找到愿意以此为生的人会越来越难,因为这么麻烦不值得。现在该是行业认真审视货运是如何处理的,以及司机是如何被对待的时候了。

Son drove semi for a while, company calls it a lifestyle to take the burden of abuse from them. Plenty of drivers would come back if companies were humane, maintained equipment to DOT specs, started pressuring shippers and receivers to be prepared to turn and burn ( some places make driver wait 8 hrs without food or access to bathrooms which then means dispatcher gets pissy, some loads such as raw meat means inside of trailer has to be washed before next refrigerated pick up and drivers have to wait in line there) Truckers may not get home for 3-6 mos!!! Shipping hubs don't allow truckers to get personal mail so they can't even vote!! Trucking is a very abusive business.

儿子开了一段时间的半挂车,公司称这是一种承受虐待的生活方式。如果公司人性化一些,按照交通部的规格维护设备,开始对货主和收货人施加压力,让他们准备好,很多司机会回来的。(有些地方让司机等了8个小时,没有食物或厕所,这意味着调度员会生气,有些货物,如生肉,意味着拖车内必须在下一次冷藏车来之前清洗,司机不得不在那里排队)卡车司机可能要3-6个月才能回家!!运输中心不允许卡车司机收到私人邮件,所以他们甚至不能投票!!卡车运输是一个备受虐待的行业。

I work for the Ports Authority of Los Angeles as a truck driver, and the reason for the backup is due to lack of drivers due to poor pay and working conditions. Old timers like me are leaving the industry at an alarming rate but the ports won't hire new drivers unless they have at least 2 years experience. These companies need to relax their requirements and so does the FMCSA/DOT. If not, it's going to get a whole lot worse for all of us, probably critical.

我在洛杉矶港务局工作,是一名卡车司机,因为工资低,工作条件差,所以司机不足。像我这样的老司机正在以惊人的速度离开这个行业,但港口不会雇佣新司机,除非他们有至少两年的经验。这些公司需要放宽他们的要求,联邦汽车运输安全管理局/运输部也应如此。否则,对我们所有人来说,情况会变得更糟,可能会很严重。

Sounds like time to keep what we got and appreciate our love ones more than just things. We definitely need to start thinking more locally.

听起来是时候保留我们所拥有的,并感激我们爱的人,而不仅仅是东西了。我们确实需要从更本地的角度考虑问题。

Working at a restaurant while I finish my Masters and I can tell you every day we are running out of stuff because of supply issues, but the customers don't care it's like when half out staff doesn't show up, because of covid or some other reason the customer doesn't care. All they care about is getting what they want now, and if they don't, they throw a huge fit. It is sickening because you get workers who care like me who end up working 60 to 70 hours a week only to be treated horribly by these self-entitled people. No wonder the industry is in such bad shape.

在餐厅工作的同时完成了我的硕士学业,我可以告诉你,因为供应问题,我们每天都存在物资短缺问题,但顾客并不关心。就像当一半的员工因为新冠疫情或其他原因没有来上班时,顾客并不关心。他们只想现在就得到他们想要的,否则他们就会大发脾气。这让人恶心,因为像我这样关心别人的工人,每周工作60到70个小时,却被这些自以为是的人残忍地对待。难怪这个行业的状况如此糟糕。

One thing the pandemic has proven to me is many Americans aren't willing to sacrifice their expectations of personal gratification for the good of our country, even the slightest bit. We've traveled a long way from the true patriotic mindset of the 1940s and 50s...

这场疫情向我证明了一件事,那就是许多美国人不愿意为了国家的利益,牺牲他们的个人欲求,哪怕是一点点都不行。我们已经大大远离了上世纪四五十年代那种真正的爱国心态……

We should all appreciate our truck drivers. So you guys who complain that what you get isn't what you ordered, remember who worked their butts off to deliver it.

我们都应该感谢我们的卡车司机。所以,你们这些抱怨买到的东西不是你们点的东西的人,记住是谁辛辛苦苦地把东西送过来的。

Stop blaming trucking industry, blame the port's operation.

Maybe we should start wanting less. Growing what we can and using resources wisely are 2 things we can all try. Yes, it's more work than using a few keystrokes, but it's more rewarding.

也许我们应该开始少点欲求。我们都可以尝试两件事:尽可能地多种植和明智地使用资源。是的,这比敲几下键盘要花更多的功夫,但更有益。

You can bet that when goods are available again, those prices sure won't be coming down. They've been going up steadily the beginning of this crisis, and for seniors on low income, we are completely priced out of many needs.

你可以打赌,当商品再次上市时,这些价格肯定不会下降。在这场危机开始之初,房价就一直在稳步上涨,对于低收入的老年人来说,我们的许多需求都因为物价高而无法满足。

We as a society should appreciate everyone more than what we do. Every job profession deserves more respect as people are pouring hours and hours into their work. Let’s treat the worker better, then see what happens.

作为一个社会整体,我们更应该欣赏所有人,而不是孤芳自赏。每个职业都应该得到更多的尊重,因为人们在工作中投入了越来越多的时间。让我们更好地对待工人,然后看看会发生什么。

I’ve had no problems finding exactly what I need in multiple places, then shop for best price and free shipping to my house. But then, I don’t need $1,300 sneakers or giant TV sets or bling and other such nonessential crap.

我在很多地方都能找到我真正需要的东西,然后选择最优惠的价格,并免费送货到我家。但话说回来,我不需要1300美元的运动鞋、巨型电视机、珠光宝气或其他不必要的垃圾。

Last yr when supplies were low, I started to think "do I really need that?"
So. I made a list or added things I wanted to my cart and made a rule to not buy until day 30.
I ended up deleting most of the items when I realized I didn't need them anymore

去年供应不足的时候,我开始想“我真的需要它吗?”
所以,我列了一个清单,或者把我想要的东西加到购物车里,并规定30天内不买。
最后,当我意识到我不再需要它们时,我删除了大多数商品。

Yes American States needs our trucking companies, truck drivers are the keys to our lives, they need to be respected more and paid more, look what happens when you don't take care if the hands that feeds you, we need our trucker's they work extremely hard for us people honestly and American States

是的,美国需要我们的卡车公司,卡车司机是我们生活的关键,他们需要得到更多的尊重和更多的报酬,当你不注意照顾你的双手时,看看会发生啥。我们需要卡车司机,他们非常努力地为我们美国和人民工作。

So what happened to all those “self-driving trucks” that everyone was going on and on about a couple years ago when truckers were asking for better working conditions?

那么,几年前,当卡车司机们要求更好的工作条件时,所有人都是怎么谈论“自动驾驶卡车”的?

“Live with it”, I agree totally. There’s too many choices for every product anyways. 90% of it I never purchase. Do we really need 100 different flavors of chips, cereal and granola bars?

“接受现实”,我完全同意。无论如何,每种产品都有太多的选择。其中90%我从不购买。我们真的需要100种不同口味的薯片、麦片和燕麦卷吗?

I asked which month they usually start getting winter boots in & was told they have no clue when it will be in.

its companys like schneider that are part of the problem with driver shortages the wages below minium wage they pay for the hours the truck driver works if they would pay a descent wage they would not have any shortage

像施耐德这样的公司是司机短缺问题的一部分,他们的工资低于卡车司机工作时间支付的最低工资,如果他们支付低工资,就不会出现任何短缺。

This is not entirely accurate according to other news sources. Droughts have really been affecting American produce including California, then there was really bad weather and early freezes in the midwest that killed crops. Some of the ships have been waiting off the coast for months not weeks. If people are wanting to have more fruits and vegetables etcetera they need to try to start growing some of their own, or buying what they can find fresh and preserving them. Natural Gas prices are also predicted to go way up. It would be great for more people to start learning to cook from scratch too if grocery supplies become much more limited. Beans and rice are good combo as well as any kind of fruits and vegetables

根据其他新闻来源,这并不完全准确。干旱确实影响了包括加州在内的美国农产品,然后,中西部的恶劣天气和早期的冰冻导致庄稼死亡。有些船只已经在海岸外等了几个月而不是几个星期。如果人们想要更多的水果和蔬菜之类,他们应该开始尝试自己种植一些,或者购买他们所能找到的新鲜水果和蔬菜,并进行保存。天然气价格预计也将大幅上涨。如果食品供应变得更加有限,那么对更多的人来说,从头开始学习烹饪也将是一件好事。豆类和大米,以及各种水果和蔬菜都是很不错的组合。

Is there really a book shortage? Cause Costco has all the books dated for release over the next few weeks in boxes under the tables.

真的缺书吗?因为好市多(译注:卖场名字)把几周后要发行的书都放在桌子下面的盒子里了。

Truckers have not had a raise in 30 years when you factor in inflation.

考虑到通货膨胀,卡车司机已经30年没涨过工资了。

Kiki Allez
This is a huge part of the problem, but there is also difficulty getting the shipping containers. I read an article where a shipper was paying $3000 for containers and now they are $10,000. They only go one way across the ocean, and with covid, having them built has been a problem. They don't get shipped back empty and unfortunately, the countries shipping to us, do not import enough to take them back. They are having problems getting raw materials to even build them. Our shelves have been half empty for two years now. If I want a can of beans, I get what they have, if I am lucky, forget name brand-organic-low sodium. A pint of maple syrup was $27.99 the other day. I don't know how young families are managing. During covid we stopped ALL unnecessary spending. We don't hoard either. We grew a garden, have a freezer of game, so I am shocked when I do have to grocery shop. And our spending is still squelched. We learned we don't need a thing. We use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without.

这是问题的一个重要部分,但也有航运集装箱的困难。我读过一篇文章,一个托运人之前花3000美元买集装箱,现在他们要花10000美元。集装箱船只能在海上走一条路,疫情之下,建造集装箱就成了一个问题。它们不会空着运回的,不幸的是,向我们运送货物的国家,并没有进口足够的货物。他们甚至连建造集装箱的原材料都难以获取。我们的货架空了一半的状况已经有两年时间了。我若想要一罐豆子,如果我幸运的话他们也有,那就忘掉那些有机低钠的牌子吧。前几天一品脱枫糖浆要27.99美元。我不知道年轻的家庭是如何管理的,在新冠疫情期间,我们停止了所有不必要的支出。我们也不囤积物资。我们开辟了一个花园,有一个冰柜存放野味,所以当我不得不去杂货店购物时,我很震惊。我们热然节制开支。我们知道我们什么都不需要。我们竭尽所能物尽其用。

If you have ever driven on an interstate highway you will have dealt with semi trucks barreling down the road.
Have you noticed any difference in how many of them are out there?

如果你曾经在州际公路上开过车,你就会遇到在路上飞驰的半挂车。
你注意到其数量有什么变化了吗?

Think about these guys every time you cut a truck off or try to pass them when you know you shouldn't, you're just making their jobs harder

当你每次超车或明知不该超车而试图超车时,想想这些人,你是在让他们的工作更难做。

He didn't mention the main thing - the lack of coordination at the ports. There is little communication, so it's chaos here but not as much in countries where the information is transparent and coordinated. Thus no lines waiting to get to your container...

他没有提到主要的问题——港口缺乏协调。沟通很少,所以这里很混乱,但在信息透明和有协调的国家就没那么多了。因此,没有卡车排队等候你的集装箱……

jane smith
According to many truckers, it's the crane operators purposely slowing unloading and loading of containers. Stories of truckers waiting hours for crane operators to end their hours long lunches they take all at once instead of rotating breaks.

根据许多卡车司机的说法,这是起重机操作员故意放慢集装箱的装卸速度。卡车司机等了好几个小时,等待起重机操作员结束他们长达数小时的午餐,他们会一次全部休息,而不是轮流休息。

The concept of "Just In Time" is to blame for the current chaos.. not enough inventory at any point in the supply chain!!

“及时”的概念是当前混乱的罪魁祸首。在供应链的任何一点都没有足够的库存!!

Good thing I never buy gifts and ask people to never buy them for me. It's been that way for years. If I DO want something, I buy it for myself, but I don't often want anything (beyond groceries). If there is something I want that is out of stock, I just buy something else...no muss, no fuss.

还好我从来不买礼物,也要求别人不要给我买。这种情况已经持续多年了。如果我真的想要什么东西,我会给自己买,但我并不经常想要什么(除了杂货)。如果我想要的东西缺货了,我就买别的东西……混乱,大惊小怪,不存在的。

I've noticed prices going up at my local Walmart for some food items but not only that some items have new package but also less quantity for higher prices. They size down few ounces so it wouldn't be noticeable I guess but when you buy a product frequently you can tell right away.

我注意到当地沃尔玛一些食品的价格上涨了,但不仅有些食品的包装变了,而且价格上涨时数量也减少了。它们变小了几盎司,所以我猜不会很明显,但如果你经常买一种产品,你可以马上分辨出来。

I've noticed I've been shopping more then I usually would on random things at work. I never use to do that before. I only just realized and I'm not sure why I've been doing that.

我注意到我在工作时购物的次数比平时多。我以前从不这么做。我才意识到我也不知道我为什么要这么做。

Another factor too that they didn't account for.
First. For context. I've been an over-the- road trucker for thirty two years this month.
Now. In December 2019 all trucks, built after 1999, have to be equipped with an ELD. This is the electric logging device that takes the place of paper log books we used to use. They're attached directly to the motor of the truck and there is no getting around it.
We can only drive 11hrs with a mandatory 30 min break before 8 hrs of driving before we have to take 10 hrs off.

还有一个他们没有考虑到的因素。
第一,交代背景。到这个月为止,我已经当了32年的卡车司机了。
现在。2019年12月,所有1999年后生产的卡车都必须配备ELD。这是一种电子测井设备,它取代了我们过去使用的纸质日志。它们直接连接到卡车的发动机上,这是无法回避的。
我们只能开11个小时,强制性休息30分钟,然后再开8个小时,然后再休息10个小时。

Most of the larger fleets, schreidner, swift, jb hunt, their trucks are governor to 65mph.
And. In states like California the speed limit for trucks is 55mph.
So on a average day trying to get from the Ports in, let's say Long Beach to say a distribution center in, let's say, Phoenix Arizona takes two days. The truck can only go about 450 +/- miles before having to stop.
That's not even factoring in allowance for traffic problems.
You can see how getting from point A to B can get very time consuming.

大多数大型车队,如施瑞德,斯威夫特,杰比亨特,他们的卡车时速可达65英里。
而在加州等州,卡车的速度限制是每小时55英里。
平均每天从港口,比如说长滩到亚利桑那州凤凰城的配送中心要花两天时间。卡车只能行驶约450英里后才不得不停下来。这还没有考虑到交通问题。
你们可以看到从A点到B点是多么耗时。

No one really wants to be truckers anymore. It's not a job. It's more a way of life.
I always tell new drivers I meet this:
There are no gray areas in trucking. You will either love it or hate it.
If you love it it'll get in your blood and you'll eat, drink and poop trucking.
If you hate it you'll get out at the first red light and walk home! It's not for everyone.
Getting good drivers is hard. No one has the work ethic like my generation and one's before it had.

没人想当卡车司机了。这不是工作,更像是一种生活方式。
我总是对新司机说:
卡车运输没有灰色地带。你要么喜欢它,要么讨厌它。
如果你喜欢它,它就会进入你的血液,你就会在卡车上吃喝拉撒。
如果你不喜欢,你就在第一个红灯的时候下车走回家!它并不适合所有人。
找到好的司机是很难的。没有人有我们这一代和上一代那样的职业道德。
