HELLO TRANSCOLINES RUSSELLVILLE,AR WELL LET ME TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING ON. I'V BEEN WITH TLI 6 YEARS AND ON 11/4/07 I WAS INJURED ON THE JOB IN LR HURT BACK,NECK & HEAD. WELL THEY SENT ME TO DOCTORS THAT WOULD'NT DO ANYTHING FOR YOU TO HELP YOU GET BETTER. WELL AFTER DR RELEASED ME TLI TOOK ME TO DR FOR DOT PHY AND I DID'NT PASS PHY. THEN THEY GAVE ME FAMILY MEDICAL LEAVE AND WAITED 3 WEEKS AND ROBERT SMITH FIRED ME AND I AM STILL ON FMLA. AGINST THE LAW. WELL THE FIGHT IS ON I'M NOW ON FOOD STAMPS AND HOPE I GET MEDICAID SO I CAN SEE A DOCTOR. WELL TRY TO LIVE ON $162.00 A MONTH FOOD STAMPS AND NO MONEY COMING IN. THE DR WHO RELEASED ME DID'NT EVEN EXAM ME THE DAY SHE RELEASES ME TO DRIVE. THEN DR WHO GAVE ME DOT PHY SAID WHY DID SHE RELEASE YOU? YOU CAN'T DRIVE A TRUCK THE WAY YOU ARE. THX BEDSPREAD

WORKED THERE 6 YEARS. THEY WERE GREAT TO WORK FOR UNTILL YOU REPORT AN INJURY OR TELL THEM YOU WISH NOT TO RUN HOT. LIKE ALL CO'S THEY WILL SIT YOU A FEW DAYS. BUT THEY ALL DO THAT. WHO YOUR DISPATCHER IS PLAYS A GREAT DEAL INTO HOW YOU LIKE TLI. THEY HAVE 4 THAT ARE REAL BAD. THE REST ARE GREAT. I WOULD GO BACK IF I COULD PASS DOT PHY. MS ZELLA WHO OWNS TLI IS A GREAT WOMAN. SHE CARES ABOUT HERE DRIVERS THEY JUST DON'T TELL HER ABOUT THE WAY MR. SMITH TREATS AND LIES TO DRIVERS. IF YOU GO TO WORK THERE TELL THEM I SENT YA. AFTER DRIVING FOR OVER 30 YEARS THEY ARE IN THE TOP 5 I HAVE DROVE FOR. I'D STILL BE THERE AND SO WOULD A LOT OF DRIVERS IF MR. SMITH WAS'NT THERE. I GIVE THEM 5 STARS. THX BEDSPREAD

I'M ASKING ALL DRIVERS: please try to sit down with your insurance people at home and work. are you covered in case you can't work due to injury,sickness or death. what will you do if you can't work due to job injury (don't count on worker's comp) your employer has more ways to no pay your claim than he has trucks. just check out web sites that talk about drivers and worker's comp. man you'll shake your head. drivers all ways ask drivers about where they work as for pay miles etc. but what does that employer do to you if you get hurt. I found out the hard way. Transco lines russellville,ar great place to work I was there 6 years and can't think of any bad things to say about them. like I said I was fired on FAMILY MEDICAL LEAVE thats aginst the law but they say fight us we will kill you on your DAC REPORT. well I was always a ATABOY guy for 6 years then I got hurt on the job and bam they turned on me like a bad dream. so dig deep when you check out co"s for jobs. (JB HUNT THE WORSE FROM WHAT I CAN TELL) never worker there and now i'd for sure never work there. thax bedspread 10-10 to everyoneottytrain 5:

Dont give up, get you a workmans comp lawyer, I did and sued K and B transportation, they settled out of court with me and I got more than I wanted, but they did the same to me and it is against the law, and as far as robert smith he is a ### sucking jerk, has he fixed his teeth yet? yes I know all about him, big company man whoi couldnt make it as a driver at american freight when they were still in business. good luck and happy suing

Boy, I worked for all the good ones. I worked for TLI from February 2004 to March 2004.

I slipped off the step of the truck at the J in N. Platte in Nebraska, bumped my leg pretty good, got one hell of a bruise. Was home about a day later, went to my doc for unrelated issues and they were horrified to see the "bump" which was hard and swollen. They were talking blood clot.

Called Safety, told them what happened and was informed, just too bad, I did not report it when it happened. Arkansas law, blah blah blah, got to report within 24 hours....I only got to talk to the log book girl who told me what safety said, he would not take my call.

Well, I could not drive, doctors orders, needed to keep off the leg. While I was home started doing some research. There is no law in AR that says you have to report within 24 hours. This was made up by Mr. Safety man. So we proceeded to take truck down there, called him on the lie, and he back pedaled. All of a sudden he produced the right forms. He didn't want to lose us.....You don't take care of me the one time I need you, I go elsewhere and we did.

They are just doing whatever they can to get out of paying you. Get a lawyer now. Good luck.

Oh yeah, Robert Smith sure is a piece of work. What a jerk.
