Coca-Cola's New York distributor says it's short of truckers, after a supermarket CEO complained he was struggling to get hold of the beverage giant's products
https://www.businessinsider.com/coca-cola-trucker-labor-shortage-new-york-city-supply-chain-2021-9

Quote:
Coca-Cola's New York City delivery partner says it's struggling to recruit enough truck drivers in the city, which one supermarket chain owner said was leading to product shortages in his stores.

John Catsimatidis, the owner of New York supermarket chain Gristedes, told Fox Business Tuesday that Coca-Cola "can't get truck drivers to deliver into New York City." Liberty Coca-Cola Beverages, which produces and distributes the company's products across New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, confirmed to Insider that it was struggling to hire truckers.


Gee, dunno why. Could be that people don't like being told to be 'less white'

‘Lost Their Marbles’: Backlash Hits Coca-Cola After Accusations Of Anti-White Agenda
https://www.dailywire.com/news/backlash-hits-coca-cola-after-accusations-of-anti-white-agenda

Quote:
Coca-Cola is facing backlash after being accused of fostering an anti-white agenda in their online “anti-racism” training for employees, with some training materials that instruct participants to “try to be less white.” After blowback, the company has issued a statement denying that the materials are part of its learning curriculum.


Maybe it's the Karens of NY that have an entire twatter feed railing against big trucks coming into the city:

I'm sure once NY becomes a massive urban food desert the woke mob still won't understand. It will all be because of racism

If you've had your car broken into recently or a business window vandalized, chances are you know how difficult it is to get that glass repaired.

Industry experts said there is a national glass shortage and car windshields are in big demand.

The owner of one Seattle windshield repair company said he has driven eight hours to find replacements. Other people have waited up to eight weeks because of the shortage.

Mike Carey showed KOMO News one of several broken windshields in the back of his work truck.

This is the current map of ships in the world...

Now, that looks great... until you realize how many are sitting, unable to get into port on time.

Vessels are pushed back about 3 weeks, at Seattle and Tacoma ports, and in Long Beach, pictured below, there's something like 70 vessels waiting to unload/load cargo.

The afganis have finally figured out that they don't need the mexican cartels to move heroin --- cut out the middleman. Same with the hatians - I bet we see more hatian and afgani gangs very soon.

Sitting in a truck stop between Sioux Falls and Sioux City right now

Guessing about 80 trucks with maybe a dozen slots open. Mostly dry vans with a few flatbeds and tankers. Then there’s me, and another crane parked next to me (buddy system) that don’t count as truckers. Oh, and then there’s the massive RV pulling a double decker enclosed car hauler. That dipshit is on the end of a row and clearly doesn’t know how to park

To me it seems like there’s lots of trucks around given what I’ve been immersed in for the past three days. Every truck stop is almost full, and that’s out west where there’s lots of space for these sprawling truck stops. Parking gets tighter moving east

If you like McDonald’s ice cream, then you will know how often McDonald’s ice cream machines are broken. Employees are endlessly frustrated at how the machines randomly turn off or don’t work, as are franchise operators, and customers. Ice cream machines break down so often that staff often don’t even bother to notify McDonald’s franchise owners, who would ordinarily call technicians to fix it. McDonald’s corporate makes jokes about it, tweeting “We have a joke about our soft serve machine but are worried it won’t work," McDonald’s tweeted last year.

Is the real problem a parts shortage due to companies shutting down or a consolidation of suppliers?

The bicycle industry has a well-known monopoly problem. One major player is Shimano, which is a Japanese firm that has tremendous market power in the industry.

A highly subsidized industry (you name it, solar panels, ride shares, electric cars) disrupts the market.

How Uber Caused a Shortage
I’ve lived in Washington, D.C. for fifteen years, and one of the many unacknowledged changes has been the disappearance of taxis. While the city has good public transportation, you could jump into a taxi for a reasonably priced convenient ride around commercial areas. Around 2012, Uber and Lyft came into the market, and for the next seven years, it got even better, with cheaper Uber fares within minutes.
