Drove dry van and intermodal for six years.
Now I am chaining, strapping, and wrestling with this Conestoga trailer and asking every trucker around me stupid questions that are going to make me cringe when I think about what a noob I was years from now.
This is like starting trucking all over on my first day!

You can ask stupid questions, 'cause they really aren't, or you can make stupid mistakes which really are.
The questions don't cost anything.Odin's Rabid Dog, Cabinover101, Brettj3876 and 15 others Thank this. -
Hey man every flatbedder has been there, just remeber its ur duty as a flatbedder to pay back the lessons u have learned the first time a new guy asks ur advice on something. The good flatbedders are always looking for a better more efficient way to do things.

Turned out the woman I was asking was a flatbedder's wife so she was nice enough to call her husband on the phone and let me talk to him.Cabinover101, cke, FerrissWheel and 2 others Thank this. -
If it’s any consolation, I had straight truck duty today in a pretty nice Pete but with a dog of a Paccar engine.
Trying to adjust to a straight truck today was like my first time trying to put on shoes.rda2580, Brettj3876, cke and 2 others Thank this. -
