    Hello! I’m looking at going with TMC, but I’ve heard they want you to stand on one leg for 30 seconds each. I’m completely flat footed, so it’s hard to do this for me. Is this a deal breaker? I’m fit enough to do everything else, just these darned feet. Thanks!

    some companies have some sort of physical agility/ability testing done, i have personally witnessed drivers going thru this. if they fail...no job.

    usually done at the DOT physical place
