    I see you was rked for can am too. What happened? I'm just curious cause I did too for 3 months. I keep telling myself they were good but then I remember some things and think that's just not the way trucking should be.

    Prairie boy on here helped me get a job in Alberta hauling pipe. Plus the training program was almost slavery. It was better than shadow lines so i went there for orientation and decided to head to alberta instead. That was 5 years ago. I work at triton transport in chilliwack now.

    Oh I see. Triton looks good. I want to get into heavy haul myself but I live in Burnaby so ranger would be my best bet but I don't want to cross the bridge everyday. Got a decent job hauling fuel here but its getting a little boring doing the same thing everyday. Same stops all the time week in week out make me a dull boy.

    Well in this economy atleast it's guaranteed people will always need fuel! It's pretty slow in the heavy haul game right now but busy enough to make a decent wage. The 3-4 day weekends all the time are kinda nice lol

    No smaller company called Fuelex. Use to be Bluewater but got bought out. Got two more years to get a speeding ticket off my record before either denwill or wheeler will hire me. But I am going in that direction.

    I have heard good things about H&R Transport (Lethbridge), but I don't really know much about Canadian Carriers. Does Fortune go north of the border? That's my (hopefully) next spot.
