The good you hear about TMC is from those drivers who seem to make their experience with TMC work. They work hard within the rules and realize no one is out to get them.

The bad you hear about TMC is from those who did not succeed with TMC and wish to blame anyone but themselves for their failures.

Your experience with any company depends, primarily, upon your attitude.

TMC is not run like the military. I was in the military for 18 years and I think I might be qualified to voice my opinion.

As far as 20 students arriving at orrientation and only 10 hired I have no idea what the numbers really are. I would think they retain higher numbers than that. You have a mix of students failing the DOT Physical, Drug Test or Stupid Test. Many will quit within the first year because driving is not what they expected.

I cannot comment on Werner because I have never worked for them. I see what is posted on the internet, I also see what is posted about TMC and realize most of the negative is wrong. Not that I am saying TMC is a perfect company. I do think the positive about TMC far out weighs the negative. Like I said, how you handle your situation and circumstance will determine whether you succeed or fail. It is all on you.

My rhetorical response to all these questions is, are you going to believe all the drivers succeeding or are you going to believe a bunch of loosers?

My best advice for a new driver is don't hang out with those drivers that are complaining about some of the pettiest things, saying they are going to quit because things didn't go the way they wanted it to go. There are always that 10% Just get on with the job and be a professional.

Glad ya'll like TMC... I could'nt get on with them, turn down my app..

My recuter nor myself could figure out why... no dui no speeding tickets no
nothing that would throw up a problem. I even have ten years of truck parts sales to boot...been self employed for eight years. oh well their loss...
If you get get turned down by TMC talk too Maverick they like hiring good people...

whats up all

how many people should i expect at orientation in columbia on monday?

any TMC drivers from Georgia???
