    Hello,

    Just wanted to introduce myself. I just submitted my application three days ago and am waiting for them to verify my past employment and hopefully get a date for orientation. I have seven years of past driving experience, although been away from driving the last two years. I am shooting for the flat bed. I would like to say that as of right now I am pleased that I decided to go with Prime. My recruiter, Gracie has been awsome and genuine. I have also been reading the posts on here which confirms my decision. Hope meet some of you out there on the road, or terminal.:biggrin_25519:

    Hello and welcome ama91761. You may want to take what ORD says with a grain of salt. After all, he's an Alabama fan.

    It ATT comes with time. I've pulled a step deck and once you do it once you never forget. I've also pulled reefer and not a big fan of sitting and waiting to get unloaded, not to mention the places you deliver to.

    Let me ask my trainer and see what he says. I'll get back to you on that. I'm very happy so far about switching over to flatbed.

    My trainer said we have "a lot" coming out of Long Beach
