    Will do Slowmotion35. Keep in mind all of you thinking of going with TMC. If you are a recent grad from a driving school, you wont get paid the 2 weeks you are in Des Moines. If you make it to the graduation Friday, you will get 600 dollars for the time you were there, But if you quit within 6 months of your hire date, they will take that money out of your last check. So basically you wont get your last check if you quit within 6 months.:biggrin_2556: KEEP THAT IN MIND
     
    Slowmotion35 Thanks this.

    I have to ask you DG1 :)

    I worked with a guy from Whitwell years back. The guy talked real funny with his slang. Another worker told me everyone in Whitwell talks that way.

    Do you talk funny?? :biggrin_25523:

    Dieselgupsy1, keep us all posted. I will finish CDL training at the end of march. My top three companies in no particular order are Maverick, TMC and Watkins Shepard. I just got back from having lunch at the local truck stop (startown exit off 321) and saw a TMC truck in the lot. If nothing else you have to admit they have some nice looking Petes.

    Condocruiser,,,,that is some funny stuff right there....
    I will tell ya this, I moved to Whitwell MNT in 2001 and it took me a couple years before the locals excepted me and my family. They new right off that we were not from there but, I am very good with people,,,most of the time.

    I want to let everyone know that I have been excepted to TMC and will be attending their Experienced driver Orientation in SC on the 21st. I want to assure everyone that TMC does allow food in their trucks...LOL I don't like the fact that I have to use their CB's but hey,,it is their truck. I guess my Stryker 440 will just have to sit at the house for now. I just pray that my 43yr young body doesn't let me down....

    Go Figure,,,on the day that I give my current employer my two week notice, my drive shaft falls out. Well, I decided that I will not depend on them to keep me moving. I rented a car and am driving to nearest terminal. They have assigned me a temp truck and a new load... go figure, when you take things into your own hands, things happen.

    One more week to go and I am done driving an orange truck and trailer around.... It has been a great ride and I have no complaints, well none that matter anyway...LOL I would recommend SNI to anyone, especially a new driver.

    I am seriously looking forward to doing something different and feeling like I am doing more than holding a steering wheel all the time.

    I am stoked that I get to goto Columbia, SC for my orientation and it is only 4 days. I have looked on thier website many times and says all new hires go to IA, thank God I don't have to go that far..

    You all be safe out there and I will keep you updated. I will be home from the 11th until the 20th, so I might not post much on those days, if at all.
