    I would do that fairly often and my fuel compliance was never below 93% (most months were 100% with an exception here and there).

    Thinking about coming back. Learning tankers has been the cats meow and the pay, beyond fantastic,,,,, when there is work. 3 time in 4 weeks I've been off over 3 days, sitting by the phone waiting for a call.
    And some of the worst dispatching Ibhave ever seen. It scares me to know these turkeys (my current company) is sending hazmat loads down tge road. I want to move to Portland OR Washington and know we have a terminal in Portland, and a lot in Tacoma/Bellevue/whatever.
    How are things going here?

    In infinite fuel solution wisdom my day saw an existing solution used on that assignment which finished 12 miles after that fueling. To get a new set of solutions for my now current assignment. The note said fuel 143 gal.. after I would have driven approx 100 miles on a freshly full tank(s). So bypassed. Have tried twice to resubmit request only to have the final solution remain for houston pilot.

    Have enough fuel but its 643 miles to that one and I'm 41 gals short of getting the bonus points this month. Not for sure I can make those miles in 11 hrs. At 77k gross. Going to give it the ole high school drop out try though.

    Not sure if this was your situation or not, or if I mentioned it earlier, but they also said in that conference call that you can submit a fuel solution request up to 4 times. After that, I don't think it does anything.

    I routinely skip a fueling solution until I'm below 1/2 tank. To date, this has not effected my compliance score, why wast time topping off?

    Houston express is vieing with Gary to be the slowest bay in the company. Just as well, no load yet anyway.
