    I'm looking for minimum on 2k a week but will take more if they have them. I know this time of year gets slow so no matter what I get I'll be happy. As for what I ran I started the week before thanksgiving so I have No way of knowing what to expect until next week.

    Haha ok, the last thing I wanted todo was leave town on thanksgiving. I know the one local job don't sound all that great so I might just call them back and say on second though, tyvek suits don't sound like a great deal of fun.

    I got a good feeling about Melton while in orientation. Almost like they WANT to keep you. Never had that feeling with a company before. And the starting pay was the highest offered by flatbed company to me.

    How many people are in the orientation?

    Little update on my end they said I need 2 more months before they will hire me. They said my local time 9mo serving PA, MD, DE and NJ and my 1 month with werner weren't enough so I'm going to head back out with werner get some more seat time. Kinda of disappointing I really wanted to work for melton.
