Loggin on "Line 3" for TMC

The reason they do the things they do is ensure that the driver they have in their 200k piece of equipment can handle the preassure of over the road driving and not just hire some idiot just out of schol i have bin w my trainer 2 weeks and i get my truck monday and hope start making money ! If you want to b home ever week then dont become a truck driver simple as that

 

Put in my application this morning, going for a prehire before I start school on the 6th. Anyone here on the ojt program through the VA?

 

i agree with u on that plus there are several other reasons but that is a good one. plus i say if u want to be home every weekend, go get a job driving locally. this is otr not i can't be away from my mom, wife or kids. otr is not for everyone. i'm not trying to be ugly i'm just being very honest about it.

 

the way i read this add on craigs list it looks like TMC is running a cdl school now. I bet that is not true it sure wasnt that way when i went thru, this add must be there fat worm on the hook waiting to catch some more bass to fill them seats...LOL Hope all is going well Blind...

Every time I read one of these posts I throw up in my mouth a little! The reason they do the things they do is simple: GREED!! This bull crap of not having a home life just because you are a professional driver is a falsehood they want you to believe in. It's amazing there are MANY drivers who get home EVERY weekend and some who like me get home every night.

 

i hear that I run NC, SC, VA, and Some MD and im home every night avg 900plus a week so yes life is good and so glad i jumped ship when i did..oh and i love flying by them black and chrome trucks , i am restricted but 75 is better than 62.LOL

 

I have 50 truck drivers that work for me that are home every weekend. They deliver everywhere in the Eastern half of the country from ME to FL to TX to MN and all points between. It is a myth that you can't run OTR and be home every weekend.

 

I think Blind dog has a couple words to say about that "we make it a priority to get you home" line.....

I just got approved today through the VA Voc reab program. I start my CDL school on the 6th. Looking at TMC pretty hard. I have been reading these posts for 3 months and have got a pretty good education from a few folks on here. One way to learn about the industry is to listen to those working in it.
