thinking bout switching to flatbed

I think they still do the 7 day class. At least they did when I was there in 08 and a friend still there says he hasn't heard of any changes.

 

I do flat bed but i get paid by load and tarping is always the same. But im on the denver fleet u dint do the 48, flat bed is nice dor the little phisical part of it but frozen tarps sucks.

 

Can't speak for Prime other than the last time I heard the waiting list for a trainer was insanely long. But as for skate boardin', I effing love it(!) and will never go box to pulling a box ever again. That ##### for the birds, older guys, weak and lazy ###'. No offense to the older drivers and the not so physically acceptable guys but flatbed is work and at times can be trying and separate the boys from the men even on the hottest days and worst snow storms.


Now I know someone is going to heavily criticize me for saying this but at the moment have done the best I can to make it not offensive to anyone while laying out the truth so forgive me if you find it offensive because that was not my intentions at all, except the lazy ###'!

 

Rain sleet, snow or hail will never stop a flat beder from getting it done . Most of the time it pays better and a lot of hard work . Pride in the work !

 

Hell yeah! I love it when I roll to the house and tell my wife I got her a gift and open her eyes to a nicely tarped load then tells me I suck for doing it. Pop out with flower's and I get a "you did a really good job wrapping it" lmao.

 

switching to flatbed will be the third best thing you could do in trucking. going over to maverick of tmc would be the 2nd best.
