I am guessing that "can earn" doesn't mean that everyone who drives a rig is earning that on normal time, or at all. Also not everyone has a truck license or is cut out for driving a rig.

I feel bad for those that don't want to move but ultimately do, even if it takes some time. At the same time, I do acknowledge that there are legitimately difficult circumstances that may not make a move so reasonable (e.g., needing to care for a sick relative).

Some people, evidently, aren't "cut out" for doing anything ... besides sitting on their asses, doing drugs, and being leeches on society.
And then whining about it, making excuses, and blaming anything and everything except themselves.
I hire people all the time ... ASSUMING they pass the drug test (which rarely happens) ... I tell them they can stay as long as they want, provided they do simple things like show up on time and actually work.
Have not laid off ANYONE in over 2 years ... yet, we are constantly in need of new people. Know why? Many folks we hire want a paying job ... but don't understand the responsibility that comes with keeping a job.
I have zero sympathy for such people.
People who go out looking for work with any motivation are typically given a chance by someone ... and then often they simply frick it up.
