    not that it really matters i guess in tanker work but is it forced dispatch? also how do they work your fuel routing? do you have options of where to fuel or is it set places you ahve to fuel at?

    It's forced dispatch, but I've been standing next to plenty of drivers on the phone crying about their preplan, and then it magically changes. Fuel routing is any Flying J or Pilot.. We have a book that has 45 stops in it. We can top off at those 45 stops. There are about 4 other stops that were add'd later that we're allowed to get 100gal at. Any other Flying J or Pilot, we're cap'd at 45gal per transaction every 2hrs.

    15 is a good wage for Florida, we don't have a state tax like PA does Poppapump, plus all the other BS taxes PA attaches to your paycheck. I lived there 2 years and couldn't believe what they get you for up there. Good luck to you Southpoint, watch your overhang on the passenger side.
