Hello all, I'm looking for guidance. I obtained my CDL A Feb 2020. I have orientation on next week. It's for flatbed. I was told 2 days orientation, 3 days load securement training then out with trainer for 150 or 160 hours unless I do really good then I could be cut loose sooner. How hard was road test such as length of driving and area? How is working for Western Express? And any and all advice and tips that youns can spare for a rookie. Thanks in advance for any help. V/R Larry

Thank you both for the help. Especially the tips. I kind of figured a lot of it had to do with self. I am a mission focused type of individual and don't mind challenges and making it happen. I was hoping the road test wasn't that bad. As long as my blood pressure holds out I'll be doing flatbed, NE regional. I am both excited and nervous lol. Thank you both for replying. And also for the straight forwardness Old School. I can't stand people that beat around the bush.
