    I'm interested in hauling fuel for solar transport in denver. They say I must start 4pm-4am shift. How long does it really take to upgrade to 4am-4pm shift. Thanks, in advance

    Talking to the Solar drivers in my area. They aren't very happy with there job. But that could just be the management in this area.

    I just left Solar and went back to my old job because I was not told the truth about the way things worked at solar. In the six months I was there the largest weekly check I saw was 1150.00 and that was the first week of Jan so it included the holiday pay. Does not come near to the 65k a year I was told I would have no problem making. Most weeks they had to add money to my check to meet the 900.00 guarantee that they promised when they hired me. Then, two weeks after I gave my three week notice, I had a death in the family so I had to go home early to help my wife since her dad had just died and later that day I told dispatch I would finish out that week and then I would be done. It was at that time the dispatcher told me that she was not going to give me any runs and worry if I was going to have to take off again and as far as that goes, she just doesn't need me anymore.
    Gee whiz SOLAR, sorry my father n law could not die on your schedule!

    Devorak 5 ,sorry, just had to get that of my chest. How long it takes you to move to days depends on how fast their driver turnover is at any given time. I worked out of the Springs and went from nights to days in about three weeks.
    Good Luck!
