    No chains on the steers or the third drives. Not full chains probably just some wet ground

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a sand hauler with chains on.

    I'm here. I just don't work for MBI anymore. Orientation was the best part of the whole company. Once I got out it was break down after break down. I was in a different truck every single day. Worked a lot of FREE hours since they went to that new percentage pay. I will never go back while it is percentage. I moved to Sevierville, TN and found a nice day job. I'm happy down here.

    Oilfield trucking ain't worth ####
    Just a bunch of greedy crooks. To anyone who's thinking about driving in the oilfield, this is a warning. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!!! Find something else to do. The oilfield is all BS

    One of my coworkers did it for 9 years, made over 120k/year, paid off his house. Sorry if you made the unfortunate mistake of working for a bad company.

    ###### I knew I should have done that instead of buying a liquor store and hemp farm.
