    Hello Quietriot.....I worked for TMC for almost 17 years. I left in late Jan. I really liked them for the most part. My main issue was it got harder for me to get home in South Dakota. If you live in the right area you should do well. Just make sure to keep your truck CLEAN. Do not walk on the grass at the Des Moines terminal. And don't alter the equipment. Not even little things like putting on your own cb antennas. If I go back to driving, I will very likely go back to them.
     
    Quietriot6960 Thanks this.

    Looks like I am going to find out. Go to orientation on Monday the 26th. Sorry that I won't be able to let you know how it goes. Won't have my laptop with me. Let's find out what this SC man thinks.

    Yesterday I talked to a tmc driver at a TA off 95 In richmond, va. He told me that he made a little over $60,000 last year and didnt make it home maybe one or two weekends. He lives in the richmond area. I thought it sounds good.
