    Umm I hope they are training you for the propane certificate. Fantastic if they will hire you as untrained.

    There have been some propane issues in the past and now people whom handle propane must have some form of certification. Please post how you do.

    Yeah, some propane companies do hire new cdl school grads, though they don't advertise it.
