Well, I plan on attending Roadmaster driving school next September. When I spoke with them, they said two companies will reimburse me for the tuition. Werner and TMC. Also, both companies use the Apprentice program which means I will be getting my GI Bill benefits while driving either company. The problem, is I don't know which company to choose. There are more companies out there that I would like to drive for, but none pay my tuition or VA Benefits.
Any suggestions? Also, please don't complain about a certain company just because of a bad issue you had with a certain person.. There are bad apples in every company..
Thanks..
Werner or TMC or.....

Thank you for the reply...
I am gearing more towards TMC myself.. The majority of Werner comments have been negative to begin with plus I have read where new drivers may get stuck with driving as a team. I am a very very anti social person and a loner myself, so it would kill me driving as a team and it would be bad for the other guy cause I wouldn't be talking to him.. LOL..
How did the securement training go? Was is very difficult to learn? Please, keep me updated on how your time goes with TMC..
Oh, one more question... When I first researched TMC several months ago, it (Their Website) stated that after your time with the trainer, you have to get tested again before you are assigned a truck. Now, it states that after your time with the trainer, all you have to do is certify training. Is that the same as testing out?

Werner could easily end your career in a few weeks. I would advise against going with them.
My .02 cents -
Thats not even a competition, if those are the only to options TMC is definitely the way to go!

They lost there EZPass because they did not pay there tab
They lost there Truck wash account because they did not pay there tab
They Fillied for bankruptcy in December 2009
They run there company like the marines
I do agreen the 99.9% of there equipment looks great, and there drivers for the most part act proffesional but as a company they do not, they are a Training company, they're far from the bottom but they are not "First Class". Maverick is a far better company then TMC.
