Any other AL drivers here? I just started with the company about 3 weeks ago and am extremely happy with the company. This will definitely be the company I retire from.

That is toooooo funny. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I heard nothing but good thing from air liquide. Theres an opening in Orlando near me but they wont hire me with 2 speeding tickets in 3 yrs.
Good luck with it, i'll try again in 2009

I have a relative that worked for them from 1980-1998 at their Etiwanda, CA. air seperation plant. He was a bulk transport driver. Air Liquide (or "Leaky Air"-as it's known in the cryogenic biz) FIRED all their drivers and contracted out to Jack B. Kelley. They did lose a a group unlawful termination lawsuit and had to pay the drivers a few million in damages, but it never brought their jobs back. I drive for the Linde Group, doing the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen deliveries. In California, AL is closing a lot of their facilities and at all their other plants(in California) they have let the drivers go and contracted with Trimac.

I'm very happy to be at AL now. Nobody comes close around here as far as pay and benefits for local drivers.

Where do you deliver to in that area? BR? Gonzales? NO? I wasn't aware AL had a DS terminal.

I work out of Geismar. I live in DS now, but I'm moving to Gonzales next month to be closer.
