    When I inevitably move on, I'll be sure and make a burner account and post the company to warn others. Don't want to dox myself here plus if I end up short a few thousand it'll be johnny cochran time.

    A brief moment of panic as I look down and see my trailer wheel lifted off the ground. An optical illusion that was very convincing in real life until my brain caught up with reality.

    Well, after a 17-year hiatus I have officially rejoined the ranks of fuel haulers. Took a month to get carded at 5 different racks, but I never forgot how to load or how to drop, so my trainer didn't really have to teach me anything except where the stores are located and how to do the paperwork and the computer for this particular company. Now I've been out on my own for a month and feel as confident as if I had been doing this job for years. I know everybody is busy right now so I hope y'all are safe and will be able to spend Christmas with your families.

    Thank you! I went into the oilfield back when the Eagle Ford boom started and was planning on staying at that company until I retired. But things changed, and I got the chance to move back to West Texas and go to work for a good company, so I jumped on it.
