    Starting on the 24th as company driver currently at Stevens transport. Trying to get experience flatbed for a year hometime isn’t a huge concern I just want to know that the money is consistent. I’ve seen that the maintenance sucks a lot of deadhead and sitting etc just wanting to know if anybody has these experiences

    ATS has a pretty good reputation.
    Plenty of other flatbed outfits also.
    Where is your location?

    You're golden for oversize. Don't put it off, if that's what interests you.
    Check the websites I posted and choose one.

    Thank you hopefully they don’t stress on my 3 points on my license from running a red light 2 years ago before I got my cdl I have 1 year 2 month reefer experience I looked at rcs and nova and they turned me away I got accepted by tmc and ats but the large training company thing with micromanagement just gets on my nerves they presume all drivers at this company are inept to knowing how to do their job or remember anything
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.

    I prefer large to medium companies. I don't want to be known by my name, just pay me what I'm owed
