Starting out...

CONGRATS, ARE YOU GOING INTO SPECIALIZED AND HAULING GLASS? I'M SURE YOU'LL DO FINE. I HAVE 4-5 WEEKS LEFT BEFORE I GETOUT OF THE TEAMSTERS ACADEMY IN RI. I MIGHT GET LUCKY AND BE ABLE TO GO FOR ROAD TEST EARLIER.I'M HOPING,THEY HAVE A BIG CLASS STARTING ON THE22ND.

 

Depending on what your gonna be hauling--i wouldnt advise a woman to run flatbed. Those tarps are a pain especially in wet weather and the straps were even a bigger pain. I believe that women can do it but i tried it and needless to say--i ended up pullin some abdomen muscles tightening up the straps. Flatbed is a lot of physical work unless you can find something where you dont have to tarp--then it wouldnt be so bad. I did some lumber for a while--it nearly whooped my butt. Just be cautious if ur running flatbed--you can strain some stuff you didnt know could be strained! LOL Be safe and take care out there!

 

Lots of luck on your test!

 

good luck at maverick. if i can remember correctly, i think notarps works for them. i am pretty sure he will answer any questions you might have.

 

Thanks Best of Luck to you and keep us posted.I'm waiting for final approval for ANDERSON TRUCKING SERVICE, I might still send in an application to Maverick. I beliee send in as many as you can and take whats best for you and yours.
