In Transportation? I couldn't tell you specifically if you're talking about shyt like IT. But the owner of my company contracts with a Black-owned IT company and they do all the wiring and troubleshooting in our office. And we're not all that big. I don't know what those jobs are called on shyt like Indeed.
And that's not going to change moving forward. Especially on the medical side. Uber has come into medical transportation so that'll be a whole other division that'll need tech savvy people because of the growing integration between technology and the day to day operations in these transportation companies. You'd be surprised at how behind the times alotta these companies are. Not only that, it seems that there are alotta opportunities to start your own company and if you're competent get up and running and profitable for relatively little money, again, especially on the medical side. I'm kinda looking into that now. And if you go into it with a background in tech I promise you'll have an advantage over a good part of the industry from what I've seen.
Now if you're talking jobs in transportation in general, you can look anywhere. I got potnas that are conductors for railroads, truck drivers turned truck owners, mgt at different companies, etc. In every city I've been in I've seen Black people in every position from the lowest entry position to sr management in the transportation industry. And I've worked at the airport here, a large paratransit company, and like I said I'm working with a Black owned NEMT company now.
