Can't speak for the company being good or bad, but a word of advice would be to take any information you would need to fill out an employment application, and make sure it all matches whatever you filled out the first time.
You could very well get there to find out that they have "lost" or "misplaced" your application. I have seen this happen to me, and to others at different places. You can never be "too prepared". -
thanks sportoutlaw thats great advice. ill definetly do that.

howdy! I've been with them for over a year and I've had good experiences with them overall. It will take about a month before things start rollin' along, but I've seen it take longer with other carriers. TransAm is not much different than other carriers on their support, there is someone there in both terminals at all times. If you are going into their training program, make sure that you understand what you're doing BEFORE leaving the trainer's truck, that does include backing. There's no layover pay unless you're stuck for 24 hours period and also there's no detention pay, period. They will keep you running hard. I've averaged 3200-3500 as a company driver for almost the entire period I was with them, LEGALLY. The pay is on time and my pay was never wrong. Any more detailed questions, let me know!

1. Hometime is 4 days a month. Is driver company or lease??
2. Far as TA routing around the drivers home state: It happens, but it is not done on purpose and usually, no where close to the drivers home city. In other words, don't expect it to happen.
3. I am not familiar with a Krogers account.
Hope this helps. What state are you in?? -
we live in ohio do you know about holidays will he be home for the holidays or does this company don't care
-
Holidays? Whats that? Like Lydia said, you get 4 days a month. 95% of the time, they'll get you there when you want. If he wants off on a holiday, then he'll need to factor that in on his hometime request.
As for the company caring.....their whole business model is based on turnover and that, in their opinion, drivers are a dime a dozen.
There's a whole bunch of other TA threads going on and you can find them if you use the search function.
