    I know a lot of guys that switched from flatbed to tanker.
    I don't know anybody who switched back.

    Just gonna sneak in here a bit- just graduated tanker school here in Houston and getting ready to go out with TE for 10-14 days. Really appreciated reading Juan, Newbie and Tater since you guys were in school and now out solo. Your experiences really helped me make the decision to go Tanker; and as you know for a rookie, Schneider Bulk is the only gig in town. Hope to hang around for a good bit as the safety training and beginners $$ around here seems OK. BTW, driving out of Savannah OTR eventually and going out with a Houston TE on Monday.

    Happy to answer training questions; they have made some changes since January but nothing too major.
     
    Juanthehumanoid Thanks this.

    Hey Juanthehumanoid, I'm going out tomorrow with your TE Jim. Don't remember if you said how that went but I did hear from a trainer in Houston that he was a cool older guy. Guess I'll find out soon.
     
    Juanthehumanoid Thanks this.
