    hey guys,

    I've done my research and All the posts are old and I hear a lot has changed. Also, I'm aware what the recruiter told me but I'd love some info from recent/current employees who know a thing or two about their northeast regional flatbed division, as they lie to get you there.

    1.) I'm curious as to how many states in the NE regional does flatbed service if not all of them, which states does it frequent more than others...
    2.) What are realistic miles per week for ne regional, all I was told was $900 minimum a week.
    3.) They say home weekends, and it's "priority" for ne flatbed drivers. Does that mean home Friday and out Monday morning? Or home Friday evening and out Sunday?
    4.) How long would I be waiting for a trainer after orientation in flatbed as a non smoker?

    Thanks in advance. (Please don't tell me how much the company sucks, I'm a recent grad with a 15 over. I'm simply curious of the questions I've asked).
     
    Prof.Gringo Thanks this.

    I'd expect to make a 900-1000/wk and leave out Sundays....not terrible for a recent grad with 15 over
