my experience with tmc was atrocious. recruiters, drivers and previous drivers all told me it was the place to go if you wanted to flatbed. Especially if you didn't have a lot of driving experience. i was promised that a grand a week was easy to make. not the case. i busted my ### 6 days a week, all for between 5 and 700 weekly gross. i had 2 checks in my 6-8 months there that was remotely close to the promised amount. (by the way, i was bringing home between 1k and 1300 a week at a previous employer). i was put on a newer fleet manager's board, and that turned out bad. i was scheduled to have my truck serviced in Indianapolis on a tuesday, and i had been told that if i would stay out over the weekend i would make better money. so i told him that i would stay out to compensate for the day i would be down with the truck being serviced. he forgot about the appointment in Indianapolis and kept me in south Texas and Louisiana all week. then kept me sitting in fort worth under a load that paid ####. kept running short stuff for a day or two then tells me that i need to go to Joplin that they would work me in in a day or two..... my wife was pregnant and lost the baby while i was stuck in Joplin. instead of sending me home in a rental, im dispatched to oklahoma and then dead head to kansas to reload. i ended up doing it and driving over my allotted time. well i get a conference call the next week with safety, fm, logs, and the fm boss. they ask why i did it and i was honest with them. they said that he was supposed to send me home in a rental in a family emergency like that. well over the next few weeks the pay got worse and worse. i made a few calls asking what gives? am i doing something wrong? all my numbers looked good except my revenue, which falls back on the fm. i request a new fm. the revenue didnt get any better. he quits or gets fired a few weeks later. they put me on another new guys board(im his second driver) i voiced my concerns and was taken off his board. they put me on the fm managers board. about this time i got a much better job offer. all in all my experience with tmc sucked.
