20 Year Truck Driver asks public to stop stockpiling – ‘Let us catch up’
By RonnySteel
Everyone is saying it! Officials have said it. Nurses are saying it. Mom have said it, and now truck drivers everyone are saying it – please stop stockpiling.
“If you’ve got to buy stuff, don’t do it every day,” Quinton Pratt, a truck driver told WBIR.
Pratt, has been a truck driver for 20 years, has worked countless hours over the past few weeks trying to keep up with the demand. However there’s come a point where he and his fellow truck drivers aren't able to keep up.
“Whenever you have 150,000 trucks delivering every day, if you have a million people buy the exact same thing over and over every day, multiple times a day, we can’t keep up with it.”

Even though the pay is good and there’s no traffic on the roads, truckers like Pratt are missing out on family because they are spending so much more extra time on the road.
“You want to do it on Monday and Friday? Cool. You want to do it on Monday and Wednesday? That’s cool. It doesn’t got to be Monday through Friday and Saturday and Sunday. You know, you’ve got to stay home. Let us catch up.”
Everyone please share this on Facebook to spread the word.
