looking for some advice/opinions

To start this off, I drove from 11/07-01/09 for Hogan out of STL. I came out of the truck to address a family medical emergency, and decided I would try a "normal" job again. Needless to say, I was pretty miserable. So here I am, happily divorced and "teaming" with my new significant other since 08/11. The reason I say "teaming" is because we work for JB Hunt and we are lucky to get solo miles and we're splitting $.41/mile.
They offered us to get our own trucks and take a dedicated flatbed account hauling hay in the Midwest, which sounds dandy, except I've never tarped anything in my life, and it doesn't sound like a lot of fun in the Montana winter. I'm not skinny or anything, I'd say fluffy is accurate. I'm not scared to do some hard work, but I'm not sure its worth $.39/mile. If I don't take it, I'd just be running like we are now, only alone and probably won't get home at the same time, as their "regional" is east of I-35 and he's going to be west of I-35.
We have discussed changing companies, but he doesn't have his full 10 year work history on hand. Nor does he seem to want to change companies. I'm at a loss. I love him, but I'm not sure about the flatbed thing either.
Just looking for insight on being a female flatbedder. All advice/opinions are welcome.

 

If there is one thing JB will tell you, its that they are not a "training" company. They prefer you magically know how to do what they are throwing at you. The whole work history thing I don't understand either. I know you can go to any social security office and pay $35 and they mail it to you. I just get the vibe he doesn't want to change companies, even though he is frustrated to no end with JB. One FM threatened his DAC when he tried to give notice before. Our FM seems to be nice enough, but they don't get the concept of teams. It feels hopeless to stay, but feels like I maybe shooting myself in the foot if I go.

 

When they called him, about the job, they told him he would be tarping it. They also have backhauls that won't be hay. They aren't giving much in the way of additional details either. That is pretty standard for JB though.
