    First Post... Gotta get my PMs

    Im moving from Florida. Got hired at a Frac Driver B Class. $24 hr time and a half for Tioga ND. This is to get my foot in the door since my experience is well rounded for various positions. Not sure what to expect or if I need to bring anything that I cant get up there on my 33 hr road trip. I have been on the forum for a few days lurking and wondering about other companies now and if the pay is better somewhere else. I am a USAF Veteran from a POL Fuels background as well as contracting in Afghanistan as a Terminal Manager. Ive had my B Class since 2008. My first goal is to pay off my little house in Costa Rica. Opinions???

    hmontaq.......I'm here in Florida also looking to head up there. I also have my CDL B. I didn't think there was work up there for B drivers? This is most encouraging......How did you go about finding that gig, without giving too much away?
     
    hmontaq Thanks this.

    Only thing up here you can do with a class b is drive a fuel truck on a frac fueling job. If you have hazmat. Or drive a school bus
