Jobs in ND Oil Patch

I too just learned...

 

Looks like I need to do this a few more times to ask questions through a pm

 

So it has been asked her before, but does anyone have any fresh advice on who will hired a new CDL driver with endorsements?

 

Asked here... sorry to much time at the computer trying to read these post for advice...lol

 

so let me ask, don't kill me right away, but does going to Sage Truck Driving School for 5 weeks get you anywhere with employers?

 

New to trucking, but not new to hard work or cold weather.

 

Ok, maybe the system will let me sent a message to someone. I also hope to get some feed back. Thanks for your assistance in advance.

 

Cowboy77, I have been researching schools and asking exp drivers about which schools are best and sage is held in the highest regard buy potential employers, united also rates up there! I am also looking north to drive but exp. seems to be the prob. getting hired, so a swamper position for a while looks like the answer till somebody will trust a new driver. There is zero housing up there, so I personally have purchased a dodge dually and a fully self contained camper so I am mobile, clean and warm. Best of luck to ya! This site is a wealth of info if you look and ask. These guys are great about helping newbies if you can take a little ribbing once in a while.

 

Similar exceptions...

Although they have an exception specfically for pipe haulers.

The Interpretation for 395.1 contains additional information regarding what is oilfield equipment, servicing, HOS, etc.

 

Onthego, thats kinda what I was thinking too. Everyone has to start somewhere. Hardwork and cold weather isn't anything new for me, so starting at whatever and working into a driving spot might be the way to do it. I too have been looking at taking a camper or trailer.
