    Good luck be safe and stick with the company for at least a year, learn as much as you can and ask any question you have, and take what you learned in school and forget most of it.

    Congrats, There's a lot to learn about driving a Truck, and on top of that, to do FLAT BED is going to be tough. Learn as much as you can and hang in there, there are many ups and Downs in this industry. Good luck, and again, be persistent!

    Flatbeds aren't for sissie Marines, you gotta be a Seabee or a Ranger or Seal or something tough.

    From what I have read TMC seems to be one of the better one's out there. Good pay and equipment.

    What info have they gave you as far as what type truck, how long with a trainer, how much per mile or I think they may pay by the load.

    Congrats on the job and keep us posted !
