mercer transportation

did you ask about doing the securement class for flats, no experience or what was reason

 

You are starting at a good time. Summer. You don't have to deal with winter while you get used to it. That's a big plus. Did you have a choice in flats -as in 48 or 53 or all of them 48?

 

No i already pull and own a flat but they said my BMI was too high to pull flats lol oh well i guess its my loss for being overweight. I got approved for landstar also so i guess i will go there but was hoping to go with mercer. I like pulling flats and getting the exercise and helping to lose a few so i dont want to switch to van.

 

What was their reasoning for only approving you for van?

 

only got offered 48

 

no way.. i seen some HUGE dudes doing flatbed here.

 

I'm 6' and 240. Any dr. will tell you i'm overweight. Hope that my BMI doesn't keep me from joining Mercer.

 

No you will be fine im 6'5" 350 and have no problem doing the job but there paper that they go by says i cant do it.

 

You would think if your BMI was too high they would make you pull flats to help lower it haha

 

my worry is that it is their paper that says whether or not I can do it. Anyway, guess we shall see. Elizabeth in recruiting finally received my driver documentation.
