Who is the tanker company that can't retrain you?

You could try ACE Transportation out on US90 at Sheldon RD. They might have an Owner/Operator that can help you out. Dynasty Transportation as well.

or pay for a refresher, although I've heard those might not be worth the money.

You may want to try Victory Transportation. They are located at 3829 Manitou, near the Love's & Pilot truckstops (610 Loop, NE corner). They have Owner Operators that may give you a shot. Couldn't hurt to try.

Their phone number is (713) 673-4300.

I considered them a while back, but decided against it. I have always pulled a flatbed. That's all they pull. But I am in a transition period, and I am thinking about switching over to tankers.

I thought Barr-Nunn had some sort of driver refresher program.....

I guess it's better to refresh your knowledge about driving.You can take a light course for you to get back of the basic up to the main lessons before you go on to any work or driving.
