    Wanted to see if anyone happens to have any info or experience with them up there. I work for Energy Transfer down in Texas but we’ve been wanting to get back up north closer to home. Energy Transfer now owns TradeStar so I’m hoping that means stability and all of the things that I currently have but I wanted to make sure that the work is there. This is for crude hauling. Anybody have any experience up there that could help me out?

    Bottom feeder company. I goof on them constantly because they don't hire the best and brightest.

    Badlands offers housing in Colorado and those freaks are always running

    Good to know, thanks. Though does anyone in the oil fields hire the best and brightest? Maybe I’ve just been unlucky but it seems like you get trashy people no matter where you go.

    I did find out that I would be able to transfer all of my vacation time over, which would be nice. As long as the work is there I’d have to consider going.

    Ya, we are a bit slow now too. Still getting decent days but not the big ones like we want. I’ve looked into Knowles Transportation over on the west slope but do you know if anyone else over there that might be worth looking in to? I’m not convinced that I want to live in Greeley.

    To date, things have changed sooo rapidly. Curious if anybody knows how Badlands or any other Crude hauling in the Permian is doing. I'm an O/O with a crude kit. Jumping around a bit I got caught with my pants down. I worked as a company driver (Rolfson Oil) just as the crap was hitting the fan two weeks ago... now I'm without a job. Yes I still own the truck, just asking around to see what / who may be still running & needing another O/O power only driver (I've not got a trailer). Just looking for a decent paying job in the Permian for now. Anybody got any "good" Ideas... (Plz, no opinions, just REAL IDEAS...)
