    I recently created a thread about Messer North America hiring near my area. Their ad on Indeed says they want a minimum of 1 year tractor-trailer experience, and must know how to drive a manual transmission, but only “prefer” tanker/hazmat experience. Do you think this could be a good way to get experience hauling cyro and that cyro could be a good career choice if one is willing to accept the risks associated?

    Edit: Although I will likely start out on night shift, it’s home everyday. I do NOT want to go OTR (a night or two in a hotel each week doesn’t bother me).

    Any tanker experience is good for future cyro tanker jobs. Hazmat is best, but any will do.

    Cryo most loads are placarded, because of both thermal and combustibility.
    It’s a decent gig that pays well and generally you’re home daily.
    Be sure to freeze a bottle of water in 30 seconds under the liquid nitrogen… blows your mind the first time you see it.
    We liked putting our beverages on the pump while unloading to keep them really cold and make Gatorade slushy

    I can tell you a secret on how to get competitors to stop calling every week.STOP putting in applications with them that’s the only reason they are calling.If Eagle is so good why ru putting applications in for other companies

    If a driver applies on Ten Street Driver Pulse, all companies can see the application. Apply one time and dozens of companies can see the app. This is a good benefit for drivers struggling to find work.

    I have no ideal what your reply has to do with my post? But I guess you felt the need to tell me about Driver pulse and I’m guessing that giving your information to a driver recruitment company that will call you endlessly is good from what I gather you are saying is helpful.

    Ten Street Driver Pulse is not a recruiting company. It's an online software application that most trucking companies use now. Tenstreet is a software company application used to connect drivers with companies and drivers with other drivers.

    I'm explaining why he's hearing from other companies.
    Here's an example:
    I opened a random trucking company website; in this case S&S Transport.
    I click on the application:
    Online Application Form - S&S Transport (driverapponline.com)
    Now, at the bottom of the application it shows this:
    Tenstreet Privacy Policy
    Now, S&S Transport will be alerted that someone has applied.
