Finding qualified help

Is any one else having a hard time finding CDL Drivers or Experienced equipment operators? This year the pool of talent seems to be getting smaller, with many old timers retiring, there do not seem to be many young guys or girls getting into the industry.

Is this an industry wide problem or is it just in New England?

If you have experienced this what have you done to encourage new comers to the industry?

Sorry if this thread already exists but I did not see it.
