    What part of Tx? There are several chemical tank companies in the Houston area and a few near DFW.

    I live in Dallas TX but I been living in the truck pretty much for the last 3 months. I have all the endorsements one can get. Including a twic card. That's another worry they can say this and that to get you in but one won't know until start working
    Ya Schneider really doesn't give a #### if drivers leave. It's a rotating door

    Do you want to stick with tankers or try something different?
    Do you want a company with a passenger policy?

    Check the oilfield. You have a CDL lol I bet half the guys there started without one.

    I know when I worked oilfield, I was asked if I could drive. But was never asked to produce a license ;)

    It wasn’t ;) I’ve got the scares to prove it. So does everyone in my family that worked there too. It’s all fun and games, until you get something caught in a piece of machinery.

    Of course everybody else still thought it was hilarious as hell.
     
    Badmon and austinmike Thank this.

    I liked your post, BUT right now the oulfield is overstaffed. Just saying. I am on my way to another unplanned 34 waiting for a dispatch.
