Don't know for sure. It may be tightening up. Pete C was turned down at 180 out and he had 20+ years experience. I had heard 120 when I started but only from message boards.

They had one in Markham a few months ago. Nice sled.

:lol2:
Some terminals have work at this time (like @ Kankakee...), yet some/most still don't seem to right now. Maybe part of the reason I'm keeping busy is the fact that I'm staying out extremely long periods of time with minimal time off, especially compared to other drivers who are going home on each and every weekend. :thumbsup: First message I send when I leave the home terminal - I don't need to be home for a month. Doesn't seem to work.

It wasn't really the weight...its where they were....and it took a three step process to get them out of the generator compartment...and then had to carry them off the boat..... Wish I had taken pictures....might take some just to show how much fun it was....
Man that's light! :lol:
And eating ice cream? Man, you have me mistaken for someone else!

Got a question. How does tank wash pay work? I was asked to stay with a wash today for the first time instead of dropping it. It took 2.5 hours. Are we paid for the entire amount of time or is it like unloading and loading where we get a flat rate then hourly after the first 2 hours?

They wanted to load me for somewhere in Lousiana. Anyone else noticing the system picking up or is it just luck of the draw.

It has picked up, but it's still a crap shoot. Don't insult companies that have real operational and management systems by referring to Superior's cluster fudge as a system.

Superior is becoming the TMC of tanker outfits!
Everyone else get the memo yet?
