QC Energy

So did you take the job?

 

Wondering that myself. Put in an app at W'ford with them since Alan Ritchey scared me away.

 

QC in Weatherford has received a lot of applications in the past couple of weeks. They are still hiring but it seems to take some time to get on because they can only train so many at a time.

 

Drug test this morning and drive test tomorrow so I'd say it's going good? Who you run for Rockdoctor?

 

I'm running for QC on the Sunoco account. We have accounts with Enterprise, Sunoco, and getting a new, large account in a couple of weeks with another company which is why they are hiring more drivers.

 

Not with Plains is it?

 

Would I have seen you on the Newfield Okarche 1H-12X the other night?

 

What did the Alan Richey company do to cause you to not go with them? I nearly stopped at the yard in Pleasanton today, but I'm pretty sure they won't hire at my level of experience. I had put in 4 other apps and figured I could wait and see.

 

Hard to pinpoint it greywolfe. They work out of an RV park in the middle of nowhere with no shop or spare parts or tools.

May be different in your area though. Frank's worked for em for over 30 years on their mail haul.

 

Nope, new account not with Plains. Not sure I should broadcast it on here yet. I spoke to a Plains driver the other night, he said Alan Ritchey was hauling for them and several drivers were looking to leave AR and get on with Plains. BUT Plains will not hire a 3rd party employee who is contracted to pull for them so he heard several Alan Ritchey drivers were looking to go other places so they could apply to Plains at a later date. Just something to consider. If I didn't enjoy where I worked Plains sounds like a wonderful outfit to pull for.

No I have not been out to the Okarche yet. I mainly run from about 3 sites East of Wheeler. These sites each have numerous wells so they keep me and my wife busy the whole week. My wife is also a driver at QC and we split shift a truck 5 -6 days a week. We both have been there for a year. You may run into us at the truck stop in Weatherford. I am the guy who stands on the engine to clean the windows so I usually attract lots of attention- strange looks and requests for me to do other's windows!

As for Alan Ritchey, we have had a couple of drivers come over from AR in the past year. From what I was told, AR down in Dilley, TX would be great to work for but I have heard some negative complaints about the operations out of OK. Can't believe everything you hear but hopefully you like the new gig better.
