System transport

I havent pulled flatbeds before but im liking it right now. It really to me isnt bad when we have to tarp and put plastic down on the loads before hand its just work. Ive found that if you take your time and dont rush and hurt yourself it gets done fairly easy. Ive been told ill be making .345 a mile to start and it goes up after 6 months of employment. Ive been told i cant switch to the cali regional until Ive been here for 6 months as well but then my trainer said thats not right and that I should be able to switch right away to it so im hoping thats the case cause i would much rather do that than be all 48 all the time. And if all else fails and I dont like the flatbeds I will switch to TWT and run the reefer side. so thats another thing i like about this place is the fact that they have alot of different options of things you can do here. ALso its a very family oriented feeling up at the main terminal in Spokane. Everyone is very friendly and doenst act better than anyone else

 

Thelastofmykind;
Good thread. Could not get the second page to load, too bad. I start orientation in Spokane on mon 25th, going straight to flatbed right out of school as well. How was it for you? I'm very excited and apprehensive at the same time. I am understanding orientation to be 4 days, then on to 8-12 weeks with a trainer. I hope to get a good one! It would be great to here from you now as to how your doing and maybe any tips or advise?
