    I have been driving for 13 years now. 2 years were OTR and the other 11 has been in oilfield related operations all over. As everyone probably knows oilfield is not the place to be right now. I am just curious about finding a company were I can make a decent living and still get quality time with my family. I know i will not find anything that compares to oilfield money but thats ok. I just need to find something that comes close to 70k a year. I have my X endorsement. Any help on a good company to check out would be greatly appreciated. I do not trust recruiters.
    Thanks,

    Where do you live? And have you applied at Walmart yet? If you're near a DC, you can make more than $70k a year and have decent hometime and good bennies.

    The nearest DC to me would be in Palestine, Tx. It would be a 2 hour commute. Might be worth giving them a shout though. Thanks for the info.

    You're probably in the hiring area for most tanker companies.

    Groendyke Transport
    Coastal Transport
    SVTN
    Superior Carriers
    Tidewater Transit
    Trimac Transportation
    CTL Transportation
    Schneider Bulk

    Maybe some fuel haulers for local work & home every day.
