    I drive van with sni and the pay sucks. I would like to do tankers but sni told me i have to wait a year. I don't think I will be with them long I cannot make it off the pay.

    Man I hate to hear that but I know your telling the straight up truth.. I got a couple buddy's in the same boat as you are. They want to switch to tanker but sni makes excuses to not let em switch. And they also aren't making enough for family to make it. What per mile are they giving you now? Maybe they will bump you up if you talk to DBL , it's worth talking about to them

    One more question for all you experienced SNI drivers. I received a conditional job offer upon orientation. I've done this a few times, so I know the routine, and pretty much prepared.

    My questions are
    1# Ive been out of a truck since 2008. SNI offers a refreshing course for 3 days out of state, then orientation. I feel comfortable and beleive that feel will comeback, but dont want to get to the orientation and training and lock up either. Last time out upon earning my CDL, I drove only 8 months.

    2# What does this orientation consist of? He explained that it would be lots of training, but will it be enough for me to get refreshed and pass SNI final driving test? Again, its been a while, I know I can do it, just got the jitters and wanna be sure.
