flatbedding, tough group to get into?

Ever consider BTC?

 

Hey Jimmy T
small company that serves michigan KGT 800 338 4982 all open deck very flexible with how you like to work or where you like to travel

 

That's a true story! I always said if you throw me from an airplane, just give me two handfulls of bungees, I don't need no steeenking parachute! lol..

As far as flatbedding being a tough group to get into, that's for YOU to decide.. just don't whine about it to me... If ya can't hit a lick, stop swingin and get out of the way!

 

After driving for only 4 months after getting my cdl, (and I did not go to school, got permit and rode team with small co.) I quit. the owner wanted me to run with cracked head from portland to lasvegas and drive 17 hours non-stop to get back. I said no way, (but in a more colorful dialog) then got a local gig driving flat bed for a stage co. Now I'm getting my authority and buying his rig.
Be creative, do your year and re-evaluate. If you do ever go it alone, it will coast lots for insurance till you hit 2 yrs. but seems to be plenty of freight around these parts. I still consider myself a newbee, but I'm 51 and too old to eat any ones crap. That's why I'm going Owner/Operator.
