Mmmmmmmmmm....Selah should be smelling pretty good about now...Tree Top aught to be in high gear makin apple juice and apple sauces there.

Haha I like the very first post where he says tanker drivers never have to worry about being overweight, lol, I wish!

Yeah I laugh at that too.

Y'all can laugh if you want, but in all the time I've run tankers between chemicals and food-grade, I have never once ran with an overweight load. Might just be the company you are working for! Hell even with that scumbag outfit Indian River everything was kept legal concerning gross weight. Can't say that about other things though... :shock: :roll: :lol: [/b]

I've only had one load that was over-weight. It wasn't over gross, it just exceeded axle weights, and it got corrected before I left. We don't move a load if it isn't right. :shock: 8)

I only had one overweight... cuz the loader "thought" I could hold 50,000 lbs. as we usually can, however I had an older trailer that weighed more.. I ask the idiot why he did'nt look at my in scale before loading :shock:

I know what you mean. I went and loaded at the same place....and found out that the guy that overloaded me.....is no longer employed there. Seems he had trouble reading a "strapping chart".... :shock: :shock: Oh well.

STARTING WITH SUPERIOR - WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT???
 

Hi Superior Drivers:

I am starting with Superior next week. I got a year OTR experience with dry van. I know some tanker basics from previous jobs.

Can you tell me what to expect during my first week(s) training? I feel like I am going into this blind. Any info - or rough "schedule of events" would be appreciated.

Thanks,
mbadriver
