    Out of my terminal we have drivers starting throughout the day and night. 24 hour operation, 7 days a week including holidays. Senior drivers will take the best schedules which are day runs and weekends off. You typically work 10-14 hours a day with one to three stops and about one layover per month at the minimum. Your schedule is 5 on and two off.
     
    Friend Thanks this.

    Hey. What do you know about a field service tech I? (Ammonia Field Service Tech) Airgas has this position open and pays really good but it also says you’re required a class A CDL and hazmat. So don’t understand if it’s a driver or tech position.
     
    Friend Thanks this.

    We had a guy who came from anhydrous ammonia at my current job. From what he told us they were a bunch of cowboys and did their own thing.
