Werner or TMC or.....

American-Trucker, can you give me examples of how TMC runs their company like the Marines? And please do not tell me about not allowing people to walk on their grass.

 

I understand what you are saying..

Of course I am still learning the ropes, I understand you have a lot more knowledge then I do..

From what I have learned, is that drivers are allowed only a certain amount of hours to drive everyday and they cannot cheat on their log books. If TMC is going to run me hard and make me drive their routes, but in turn give me my required down time, then I am good with it. I am not looking to take a lot of breaks when I am driving. Of course if I have to stop and stretch, no company will make a big deal of it. Also, I am sure when stopping to get fuel, that will be enough time to stretch and grab a coffee.

And I still haven't found out why they say TMC treats drivers like Marines.

 

Ken,

I was hoping there were other companies I could start with, but as far as I know, those are the only two (Werner and TMC) that will reimburse me for my tuition and pay my VA benefits..

 

Which companies do you think are a better choice for people wanting to start out? Like I said, the only ones I know that will pay me back for my tuition and will pay me my VA benefits are Werner (which is out of the question), and TMC.

Thanks!!
