    I'm thinking the Bakken or Permian Basin,but not sure which companies would hire me. I have a clean driving record ,a Class A w/ Tanker,Hazmat endorsements I just received ,plus many years of hauling safely cross country with a Class B. I have a strong work ethic and I am willing to work long hours as long the $$$ is good. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Flatbed pays more than average. Do you like interesting and challenging loads that require you to work outside of the truck some of the time? Do you like driving mostly In daytime hours? Then try a rewarding career in FLATBED.

    Companies are pretty desperate out here in west Texas. Lots of places will hire new drivers. Start with these: Schlumberger, Halliburton, Par 5 Energy, Nine Energy, Basic Energy, Quasar. Schlumberger has a yard in Midland with a training pad onsite.
