    Try food grade tankers for a year or so. You'll learn enough so that when you get a shot at a fuel job you'll be able to work a Cam-loc fitting without getting your gloved thumb caught under an ear and looking like an idiot.

    If you have a bad experience at Matheson I just say try and hang on for at least a year until something opens up with Linde, Airgas, Messer or Air Products.

    technically speaking it's all freight.

    if it pays to haul, it's freight.

    I am not pushing a 3k pounds skids of hardwood floors up a ramp for a home delivery doing cryo, so I don’t consider that freight.

    Messer, Allentown. Best paying trucking job in North America. Home every night.

    All the Airgas guys that were good went there.

    NYC Manhattan or Bronx, every night, which is fun.

    You really screwed up moving out of B'hem when it comes to driving.
