    Yup still with them. I went % when i was on linehaul. Id recommend the same for you since you on the east coast. The northeast pays well and nyc pays very well. Im on a dedicated account now so we get payed mileage + flatrate for each load. Depending on the weather they are flexible. Ice and blizzarda are understandable but dont let a little snow stop you, just take it easy. The cafe is closed sat and sunday but i heard the hotel has a gift shop/snack bar open now. If you smoke bring a carton, closest place is miles and they only go to walmart once a week. Anything thing else just ask.

    Theres lots of menus to order out from at the front desk. Also the bus driver that takes you to and from the training facility will make a Walmart stop as well one or twice a week, maybe more if he's in a good mood. Usually there are a few in the class that drove there and he will be a popular guy, lol.

    Theres no curfew that I know of but best to be on your toes behavior wise as some believe they watch you as well at the hotel. They use to let everyone drive the hotel courtesy van but rumor has it that a group used it to go to the bar and crashed it awhile back, so that ended that. As I said before some guys in my class acted like teenagers and were goofing off, and they weren't young guys either. As said before its a two week interview. Good luck

    Yes they have ice machines. They only use Cobra 1500 (model 1575) inverters. Funniest part to me about the entire deal is there really IS 2 mexicans cooking at the TMC cafe.
     
    Nycmex77 Thanks this.
