Most companies don't have 14,000 of these "right" positions.

14,000 out of their total number of employees is such a drop in the bucket though. If you can get hired as a Wal-Mart trucker, from what I understand, you're the best of the best. Also, consider there are like 3.5 million truck drivers in the US - only a tiny percentage of those can get jobs at places that pay as well as Wal-Mart. And Wal-Mart has 1.6 million US employees alone, so you're talking less than 1% of total jobs when you say 14,000.
