    Just been running Vegas to Barstow so far. Got held up due to someone not knowing how to run the lift, got paid $200 for my troubles. So far I'm sitting at about $1100 in 3 days. Everyone on my dedicated fleet is awesome. No complaints yet! Even get my pick of loads I want or don't want.

    I came in experienced. If you're a student driver the trainers definitely go over everything you need to know. In orientation the flatbedders do go and practice chaining and strapping a few things as a group. They go over a lot of it in orientation room as well, both in the fmcsa book and different exercises. They don't just throw you to the wolves, our instructor, Dave, actually have us his cell number and said if we were ever unsure of something to call him.

    Sorry for the lack of updates, been pretty busy. I love the company so far, this dedicated run adds to that too.
     
    Apd and Weeble Kneeble Thank this.

    Do they use the old school heavy ##### tarps, or did they switch to lighter tarps. I remember back those tarps would beat you in to the ground.
