Talking Current TMC Drivers

I've talked with the recruiter for TMC at SAGE Driving School, and had a sit down with one of the drivers, who was also at the school with the recruiter. Of course, I heard nothing but positive things about TMC. I also read alot of positive info about TMC on these boards. Any current or past driver for TMC, please message me privately about driving for TMC:

What's it like?
Are they as good to work for as I have been hearing and reading?

Any other information you'd like to pass along would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

There is a lot of information about TMC in the TMC section of this forum:

[LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link.

If you have a specific question post it there, that is where I usually check first. I don't always find posts in other sections.

I would take the note from your doctor but not give it to them unless necessary. If I remember correctly all you need to do is pass the blood pressure requirement of lower than 140 and you should be fine.

Somewhere in that section of the forum I linked to above there is a thread about going to orientation with a lot of information you can use.
