TMC - How hard to tarp

New CDL grad here and considering various companies. I have done a considerable amount of research on various companies and I think I would like to work for TMC.

My concern is that I have heard flatbedding is a 'young mans game' and while I am in reasonable shape at 52 I am concerned I would not be able to do the job for any length of time and I do not want to start out by changing jobs a few months down the road. I think it would be better to turn them down rather than get there and find out I cannot do the job.

I know this question is subjective but any help would be nice.

I realize TMC will provide training but the real question is how much work is involved in tarping a load given the weight of the tarp and is there a way to do it by 'working smart' and reduce the amount time and effort spent moving a 100 lb tarp.

Thank you.

 

Thank you for the response. Not afraid of a hard work, just do not want to hire on to a company and then find out I need to quit.
