Thanks,It seems I'm starting to stumble on more job opportunities. All I need is the interview and I should be all set. Applied to another semi local/regional job. looking for experience and drivers so I filled out the application. It pays $233 per trip 4 trips a week 3 days off. Wish me luck, Then I found a recruiters ad for a local tank yanker looking for experience but employer will train.Filled out app. I'll keep you all posted

Found out today that the heating oil company only pays $14 hr.I was making 15 hr doing landscaping and that will start back up in a couple of weeks. I like the job but I have my CDL A and tractor trailer is what I'm looking for. The only exception is THIS 1 COMPANY THAT PAYS MID $20'S TO DO A COMBO OF HEATING OIL AD FUEL TANKERS

Hope you feel better mike. I talked to the heating oil people and told them I cant take the position because I will keep trying to get into tractor trailer work. I went to GREYLAWN FOODS for there fuel/yard jockey position. Pay is low $13 hr with ot and the owner and I had a straight talk about what I want. I want to drive the truck, he said "ok" so you'll do this until spring and I know you'll be looking for a trucking job. Working for us we'll talk with the insurance carrier and see when we could move you in a truck if not I know you"ll move on. I went back for a second walk around after my whiz quiz,met my supervisor and checked out the equipment learned a little about thermo king system. Seems like I'm in a win win situation and can know hold off for one of the local companies I talked to both union and non union. At first I was told to stay away from reefer units as a newbie but it seems the local reefer units are going to give you a shot faster than others. At least it looks that way.

No im not sure thats a question I didnt ask. when are you coming on with them. did you already get your cdl? If not talk to your recruiter about going to crowder collage for it . It will be alot better.
