Around here they are Union, and pay $21.89 an hour to start, with AWESOME benefits. Delivering oxygen tanks to hospitals and care centers, and argon to welding shops, etc...
Positions don't come up often because positions don't open often.
I applied for a spot 2 years ago, and with over 20 years experience and a clean MVR...I was beat out by someone with even more experience.
When a spot opens up, they get a stack of applications (in my area any way) to pick and choose from...so I'd say if you can get on....get on.Drano5050 Thanks this. -
I recommend stay clear ... 2 weeks pay and company just been acquired by Air Liquide . Low wages and they are looking to contract many plants to CTI , Ruan etc.... weak union , USW . Trust me stay clear
Airgas650022 Thanks this. -
Want do you mean by weak union? Usually weak union means that you guys are a divided shop. It's the membership that votes on the contract and 51% wins. Being acquired by Air Liquide we have not lost any of our benefits. In fact we will be getting 2% wage increase for the next couple of years. Go Teamsters.

Not all branches are union. I don't know what benfica is talking about but I make good money working for Airgas.

HotH2o you guys have a lot of hours? We average 60-70 per week here with overtime after 8 and double time after 12. Go Teamsters
skinnytrucker Thanks this. -
Yeah. We get overtime if we want it.

Unions are becoming a thing of the past , it's sad but it's a true fact , look at central states .... it's sad . The companies now have the upper hand all they gotta do is strike a pen to paper and the unions will be outside while the scabs are inside . All it takes is a rep who negotiates with the company because he's looking for more members to add on to a shop , that opens a loophole for the company to cut OT and lots of other things .
As for me , I bought my own truck , I go out and get my freight no one gives me nothing , I make or break my dollar , but I have true respect for the teamsters because many in my family are retired teamsters and I will never cross a Pickett ever .Misfittrucker Thanks this. -
How does Ruan treat its drivers? I am looking for consistency, or is this unheard of in the trucking industry?
