Congratulations. Good luck to you. 
Nice going!!!
Woohoo!!! Alright!!!! Congrats!!
Congrats man, glad you didn't give up. That's a helpful trait when you start out flatbed. Now you have to get through training. Enjoy your success but stay focused, getting through training is the next big step. I'm here to help and I'm sure other flatbed guys will be as well. Keep us posted.
Ok C.T. I will remember that especially if Maverick hires me but also anything flatbed related! Thank you Tim H., Charles C. , Lynn H., and Big Scott!! This is one of the top biggest accomplishments of my life! Praise God I finally got in .
That would be great if you went with Maverick of course but you can't go wrong with any of the companies you mentioned.
Congratulations Victor C. II on getting your CDL.
