Thread: JB Hunt On North American Corridor

I recently sent an email to some of the USA's largest trucking companies. The first to respond was a spokesmen for JB Hunt who said the company had no comment on the issue. Today I recieved an email from someone else stating quite the contrary. While his response is brief it underscores a major point.

We see this having no effect on our business.

Jim F. Chism
Director International Operations
479-820-7984

notice he is the Director International Operations possibly soon to be promoted to vice president if he is able to help JB Hunt make the transition from hiring USA drivers to those from Mexico.

So, did you email them as to hiring Mexicans and not Americans?

Maybe you should email the Unions of American truck drivers....

i did, in the letter i asked about job security for their workers, if they had started hiring bilingual workers, if they were looking at building offices and training stations in Mexico, etc...

that was his response to all of it.

I will be in touch with unions to get their opinions and then bounce those back and forth. I hope to have a good article by the end of July.

Very interesting dragon, keep up the good work.
