    Check Post #6 again; added a few more.

    You'll probably be on the road in 1-3 days with a trainer, depending on how long orientation lasts.

    Another question is there a big difference between between flatbed a and normal trailers. I applied to this company called Melton that sounded pretty good but I'm not sure if I'd need more training for that

    Flatbed companies will train you for load securement. Maybe a few hours training or 1 or 2 days, then hit the road with trainer.

    I'm hoping to avoid having to got through this all together if i can convince the guy I went out with to mentor me a bit. That's kinda what I'm hoping for
