    The biggest problem I see with drivers is doing their unloads.. for some reason they would rather use 1 hose and air a load off for 4 hours.. Instead of Useing pump and I'm done in 50 minutes.. couple extra hoses isn't that bad..or maybe they don't read the unloading instructions (remarks) Idk

    Okay!!! I habe my interview with schneider tomorrow!
    Is there any thing i should ask about!?! I dont know what tanker is about as far as how pay makes up.
    She said 20-25% of my pay will be made up from something other then cpm. Starts with an A i think.

    Yes. She's probably talking about accessorial pays which are really good in tankers. Adds a lot to the paychecks. My milage pay was only .36 cpm but still made $65K per year and some of the drivers at the terminal made $72K.

    @Thull can answer the questions about that companys accessorial pays. Where I worked the pays may be a little different.

    On interstate exit/entrance ramps drive 5 - 10 mph slower that the posted speed limit if your trailer is loaded. The reason for this is liquid loads will surge and dry bulk loads tend to be top heavy.
    Tanker school will teach you their policies and other tricks of the trade.
