Yes, I work for Energy Dispatch, going on two months now. I like this company. It's not perfect, but what company is? It's still relatively small, but is owned by the Family that owns Racetrac gas stations. We fuel exclusively Racetrac and Raceway stores. We get paid by the load, most paying around 45-60 dollars a load. Our shifts run, 10a.m. morning shift, and 10 p.m. night shift. Each truck is assigned to a morning and evening driver. They supply uniform shirts, and have great medical benefits through Aetna.

The average pay per year is 50-90 thousand. If you have anymore questions let me know. These guys seem easy to work for, kind of a family company atmosphere.

Good luck.

Hi,

Thanks for the info. What is it that you dont like about the company? Im coming up on my 2 years, and Im really thinking Putting in an app. What is considered a load? whole trailer or a section of it? How many loads a day? Do you work six days a week? Im guessing you average 1000 a week. They are advertising 45-50K starting pay. But they are always hiring. That concerns me the most. Thanks again, Mike

What I don't like about the company is probably what is wrong with every company. It seems like new rules pop up all of the time. Of course, this could be because some of the guys abuse the good will of the managers, and team leaders and do stupid stuff that needs a rule to be posted. Other than that, they are pretty fair, and are always willing to let you work as much as you want. The 90,000 number was one of our day shift drivers. He is not the norm. I don't know how he did it, but he did gross 93,000 dollars last year. Just goes to show you!

Our loads are one full tanker truck, a full load is 8800 gallons, and they will allow us to haul up to 9000 for a few more bucks. A short load is 8000, but they will pay you the full load pay, if you can justify why you had to short the store. I usually get 5 loads a day on the night shift, around 220-270 dollars depending on the store, but many here do 6 or 7 , bringing in over 300 dollars a night. We work 4 days on, 2 days off. We get a weekend roll around every few weeks. They are always hiring, as far as I can tell, because there are so many stores opening all of the time. 10 new ones are scheduled to open here in Dallas this year. Hope this helps
