Needless to say I am not going to waste to much time debating a point with some one who obviously does not know what tanker drivers in Florida can possibly make. I will agree that there are companies out there who do pay for crap and will run the driver in the ground. Drivers responsibility to get away from that company and find a better one. They do exist. Again, with some experience and some research, they can be found. I did not attempt to proclaim my job was the norm and very likely is the exception to the rule. When I was working local, I was home every day at a decent hour, never on call, loads rarely ever changed. Pretty normal job. You said those types of jobs do not exist in Florida. Well the 17 other guys who work out of my terminal and make likely more than I do, would disagree as well as the half dozen gas haulers I know who are pushing 50K a year and home every day. These jobs may not exist in great numbers but can be found. I am not related to anyone in this industry and certainly do not belong to any choir. Sounds like your the guy who could never find the sweet gig and naturally assume that since you could not find it, anyone else who had it must be connected or related. Wrong on both counts here. You make it sound like a bad thing to be a company guy? If that means I am loyal to my employer who pays a good wage, pays me correctly and constantly every Friday, provides quality equipment to drive, benefits I can afford and a safe working environment, then yes, I am a company guy and as long as this company continues to do it, I will continue to be that guy.
