    tomorrow with 2 week training, locally.. then back on the road in a truck.. ill do my best to keep this thread updated as i go along. Im new to bulk tank and ready and excited to try my hand at something other then opening a door and bumping a dock. I hope it all works out for me! I think it will especially with all my research Ive done and drivers Ive talked to. Nothing to it but to do it now! Wish me luck, lol :biggrin_25521:

    I am absolutely the least-technically-minded person you'll ever run across. If I can't fix or correct it with a hammer, I can't fix it!

    Been with them almost a year now. You will have good days and bad like any company but just hang in there and put in at least 6 months before you decide to quit. Bulk is a whole different animal which takes some a little longer to master than others. But the money is here to be made if you want to work. Good Luck!

    Well today was a good 1st day... Went in and finished some paperwork then met my trainer and on our way. He is very kool guy and we chatted and had alot in common actually. filled me in alot about the company and what to expect, etc... Just worked on unloading today cause thats all we really had to do. Tomorrow will be loading and unloading the trailer. It doesnt seem that bad and I will get it down and learn the routine, I liked it actually. It was different and look forward to learning more and getting out here on my own and making some serious cash.... :)

    Sorry for the late reply but have been really busy. I started out with a 379 Pete but am now in a Freightliner and I love the room in this truck. The routes are just whatever I am assigned. I am a system driver out of Alabama and I usually stay out two weeks at a time. I might stay out three weeks but two works best for me. Let us know how it's going when you can. Good luck!
