    I've never worked for them, but they just sent me an email yesterday, for regional work outta Cincinnati.

    I got the same info you got....

    I haven't deleted the email yet.
    I keep reading it, looking for the fine print.

    My curiosity is definitely piqued.....

    Talked with them today, Did the online app last week
    They offered me orientation for the 23rd
    They'll fly me, bus me, take a train or I can rent a car on them. Benefits sound pretty good also

    Gone. Left a while ago. There was 4 of us that left the Lansing yard in a 3 week period.
    We just couldnt deal with S#annon any more. Aside from her it's a great place to work. 6 yrs was enough
    I've noticed their taking newbies now and offering signing bonuses

    That sucks.

    Heniff and Superior, two once-great and reputable tanker companies, handcuffed together and, by some accounts, circling the drain.

    Probably get snapped up by KAG in the next year or so.

    I might have to give Girton a call, find out what they got going in Cincy.

    "Don't cost nothin' just to talk", right?:cool:
