Its low pay, but you can't look at that. When its only a 6month promissory note. And you get all that experiance.
My self, I would have jumped on it. I would have stayed a year even at 45. Cent a mile. If you ever decided to leave you choices are now doubled. Because you can run flat or van.
Just bear in mind to keep a calm cool head, heavy haul, over sized require a unique set of skills that can be learnt and last a life time. But one or two mistakes can cost quite a bit.
The perspective I'm trying to explain. Permits alone. Ive never needed them. I don't even know where to look to try and get one. Then routing. No idea have to plane a rt for 13,9 sized load or taller. Or a 120 foot wind mill wing. I couldn't guess how to strap down a car, a bundle of shingles or iron rebar. You got the opportunity I wish I had. I hope you take it. Or one just as good.

The one question i would ask the company is, what if I fail my first cdl test at the dmv.?
Good luck on whatever you decide.

@feldsforever Thank you for the feedback, much appreciated. I keep going through my head about starting out on flat bed/heavy haul/specialized, and whether I'll be too inexperienced for this, but there has been no comments that I should look elsewhere. I'm with you on keeping a cool head and having patience. Look forward to getting started.

That's great. Even the most experianced driver once had no experience.
