    Liquid vs Solids

    But trimac very well may have bought them out there , I'm not sure
    The difference I guess is preference 2 totally different jobs in their own right .

    I like liquids my self ,

    Trimac I know has been expanding their dry bulk operations by buying some small companies , as far as school goes I'm sure you'll end up in Texas at some point , I had 3 dry bulkers in my class and 7 of us liquid guys

    Well it might not matter anyway. They were suppose to get with me yesterday so I could ride with a driver. I never received a call. I am waiting for them to return my call. I haven't heard from anyone yet today. I fear I didn't pass the agility test. I did all the excercises fine but I think my heart rate went to high. We will see.

    Wrong ...

    I dont know where you got that info from but it's not true they have driver trainers and you train until you learn the business
    6-8 weeks etc .. Or so many loads ...

    Pumps / airs etc

    Then the school in Houston also ... 1 week

    They were going to hire me as a dry bulk driver and I didn't have any experience. Like kentucky said they do the training.

    No not yet. They had me fill out all the paperwork and sign everything on Wed. though. I also signed reference sheets for my other companies to fill out. I didn't get a chance to call there today. We are busy as hell because of the holiday. I think either I didn't pass the heart beat part of the agility test or they are waiting until they get all the references back and then they will have me ride along. If I decide to take it, I think they want someone to start right away.
    The guy that used to run the other route by me stopped by the yard this morning. He left to go to Atlas Oil and he supposedly is making REAL good money, about $3,000 gross every two weeks. He showed me some of his paperwork/pay slips and he was making about $250.00 a night. He works 5pm-5am but he works weekends, etc...
