I tried to get a job in the USA (Colorado) as a Tanktruckdriver. I have experience doing that in The Netherlands. But they weren't hiring = foreigners ... they seem to think all people from outside the USA are Terrorists or something like that.

Or is it because I am a female driver??? Could it be??? Hope not but it wouldn't be nothing new to experience. Well I now drive for an oil company itself in Holland, GULF oilcompany. Will make a movie of my work and place it here online

@AngeliqueEU Keep trying, something will open up, thanks for watching.

when your unloading do you hook up the vapor hose first or the gas hose first? what is the process from start to finish???????

[truckerevan]

@anson7500 I was offloading diesel and with diesel you do not need to hook up a vapor recovery hose (these are California rules I hear other states are different), gas you do. You always hook up your vapor recovery hose first. You want to minimize as much fumes as possible escaping into the atmosphere.

Where exactly is kleins. I live in fresno, ca. Im thinking of getting a class A licence. Maybe drive a tanker truck one day.

@rudge1982

Kleins (now known as EZ Trip Travel Center) is located at Golden State and Herndon Ave. Next to Highway 99. The biggest truck stop in Fresno.

were hiring angeliqueEU. we have more work than we can handle

@truckerevan ... my truck is even better === I can  UNLOAD at both sides of my trailer.

There is an extra unloading point at the drivers side of the vehicle ==== cause in Germany they unload at this side. And my trailer was build for both countries ... as we drive both Holland and Germany.

But in Holland it comes in handy at some unloading sites ... can drive in backwards = safer situation!

There was an add (2008 so some years back when this happened) in the Greeley newspaper they were hiring drivers ....

@truckerevan "You want to minimize as much fumes as possible escaping into the atmosphere"

Very true ... and also because of you don't want to inhale much of those vapors yourself.

Unloading is started (here / I) only after I done all the connecting of cables and hoses. Than I have to put data into the computer in order to be able to unload. You know how much was in the groundtank of the customer. We may fill up till 95% So 20m3 groundtank = 19.000 is the maximum I can fill it up to

[AngeliqueEU]

Procedure to unload UN1202 AND/OR UN1203 (netherlands)

1) earth-kabel (aardekabel)

2) Vapor hose (dampretour)

3) hose to unload fuell

Germany = also a cabel for not overfiling the groundtank of the customer.

But in realtime earth cabel ... fuell hose OR gasreturn hose ... depending on the situation of the gasstation and not willing to hassle with tripping over one of the hoses ;)

Diesel in Holland at Gasstations also GAS-returnhose is required.
