I worked at Air Products for a month.No such thing as an "off" holiday and no true Sat-Sun weekend.Pay was average at best,bennies were excellent though...This was 3 years ago...

What was the average pay three years ago? No holidays meaning they always wanted to work you on holidays?

It seems they rotate "weekends".Your weekend may be a Wed-Thurs,if a holiday fell on those days you were in luck,but if it fell on a scheduled workday you had to work....I would hate to guess on the pay but it was a mileage and hourly combined pay...Low,in my opinion..

I know a guy who works for airgas, he said .46/mile plus handling pay. And yes, it's a 24/7/365 business and there will be work on weekends and holidays.
