Rates are crashing and fuel to the moon!

I agree. I have done tanker work where I mask up. I have worked in chemical plants. Unless your a specialty hauler you don't mask up. You need a little training with it. Plus reminders at safety meetings.

Unless your hauling hot H2S crude oil.
You mask up long enough to open/ close a dome lid on a regular chemical tanker. Plus long enough to start / stop load and unloading. But you need to be taught that.


Most chemical plants it's the what if something terrible happens. Which in some places is once every 5 years. Others never.

 

What's the bet that the broker doesn't understand why that requirement is there either?

 

That's a good point but he has zero excuse. He should be very knowledgeable of the freight he moves especially if it poses additional risks as opposed to general freight hazards.

 

Didn't know there was a point system.
But make no bones about it, if you wind up on the naughty list, every post will be scrutinized.

I've taken to keeping MOST of my smarty comments to myself.

 

Why is it when rates crash the stupid rules come out?
