    Congrats..

    You will find your fellow tanker drivers are usually more than willing to help a n00b out, or when I started they were...

    Try getting any help in a grocery warehouse..

    They have been. The guy that unloaded & washed my trailer was extremely helpful too.
    Helps when you have a nice truck, too. I thought it was an '09. It's a 2012 Cascadia w/cummins. I like it.

    No. Lasted 2 months. Too many payroll issues. Got tired of begging for the other half of my paycheck.
    With Ruan now.
    Tougher job, but far better $.
    Not even close.

    Dont be afraid to play around with the load if you find the right place and time...you know, nice big wide unpopulated wet road to hit them brakes a little more than you ever have before type of thing...It nice to know where you stand..

    congrats, you dont have to worry about the powerlines and cable car lines!!! wee haa!!!

    that is, unless your tanker dumps like an end-dump!!! lol
