Actually most Truckers will tell you the driving part is ok or even enjoyable, it's the time away from home, the unpaid waiting, the lack of places to park for the night (many people don't realize they live in the truck for weeks on end), poor diet, and disrespectful treatment that bother them. That said, they can mostly choose a trucking specialty that involves lots of physical activity or not. But the type of trucking that Walmart does (dry van or reefer) needs basically none. It's an important, underappreciated, and dangerous job that I have a lot of respect for; I just don't think it's generally physically demanding is all.
