    It is a hell of a lot better than standing in mud and chemicals at a frac site. We tour all up the East Coast then go down the Mississippi.

    Commissioned based ? You must have applied at Thomas Burgers and not Thomas Fuels.

    So paul there are 2 different divisions at Thomas Petroleum,you must have asked about transport driver. They are commission based with drivers taking about $1200 home a week . The other one is frac fuel driver which is what i was they are hourly and you can get about 100 hours a week and take between $1000 and $1900 home after taxes. I would imagine you would prefer frac driver. Most frac drivers average 70-80 hours because they would like to have a life but im sensing you dont care about that so i would go frac.Try the yard in San Antonio and talk to Lynette shes the real boss there ,or you could go to the corpus yard but dont drop my name cause they are still mad that ive moved on to a better job.

    why such a big discrepancy? 1k to 1900?? is it the role of the dice or something? if thats the case, and yur always averaging 100 hours, then your real average is about 1400 a week then?
