    Flour to Dickinson? Only one place I can think of that takes that!

    That all sounds great. Some cynical veteran might wonder if he's telling you what you want to hear. I'd definitely take the job you describe. Good luck

    Doing a run to ND, isn't the whole job. I'll be running OTR, everywhere from Denver. Much to So. Cal.

    Ok, that makes more sense.
    I started pulling a pneumatic a couple of months ago, but I’m in a daycab and drive out 250 miles to load and come back

    He didn't say. But they do have full benefits. So must be W-2.
    I didn't see any mention of 1099 in the job reviews on other sites.

    Honestly.... That is most of their jobs. But I'm taking an OTR job.

    I imagine, in Dickinson, there couldn't be a second place. :)

    You night want to make sure your pet stays in the sleeper. A lot of food plants will not allow them on the property.

    Congrats on the job though. 70k should be doable if your running OTR. Biggest thing with those type tankers is watch your road surface. They ride way low and are fairly fragile around those cast aluminum valves if you catch one on something. Rail road tracks, odd ball drive ways. Saw a guy pull out of a Pilot in Lincoln Alabama pull every valve off on a load of plastic beads.

    They make good stuff. I'm in Dickinson quite a bit. Only live 90 miles away.
