Might be my last week

BTW just so all you TMC guys who are quitting/fired know. TMC will put something on your DAC so be sure to get a copy of it. They removed what they put on my DAC without putting up any fight at all. I used www.dacfix.com. A little pricey but worth it in the end. The people there do this for a living and I guess TMC wanted no part of messing with them

If you don't mind me asking what did they put on it, and how much did it cost to get it removed? Was there a shred of truth to it or was it a total fabrication?

 

Sorry to hear you finally left TMC but you gotta do whts best for you. I'm sure they gave you all kinds of reason you needed to stay just like they tried to use on me. Bottom line is we're all working to make money and we have to go where the money is. I'm sure you'll find something soon if you haven't already. Have you heard anything from 3010? Any of the other drivers who went through oreintation with us?

 

Uhh.. They diddn't put anything on my DAC. And, fyi, you can do the same thing that those dac fix services do for free. Usis still has to abide by the fair consumer reporting regulations or whatever they're called. I think any company that fixes your DAC or your credit report are nothing but a ripoff scam that prey on people who are intimidated by these jerks.

 

With everything you know now do you regret going with TMC or just trying otr altogether? Would you still recommend them to new guys? Cplmac2, how is it going for you?

 

I agree with the shady practices that Firna alluded to, but right now I'm on my second 2000 mile plus load in as many weeks so at least as a matter of getting miles I can't complain. It would be better if I was making more than .30cpm, but I'm happy because I'm getting to see the country. Aside from the known shenanigans they pull with your paycheck mine has been there and as best I can tell accurate. I'm not a fan of being paid on Tuesdays but that's a pretty small nit to pick. Still to early for me to give a thumbs up or down but at the very least I'm moving freight which ultimately is the goal.

 

.30cpm? Is this on mileage or %?

 

Yes I could have taken care of the dac thing myself but simply didn't have the time. As far as what tmc listed on my dac no there was no truth to it. Just because you are at orientation does not mean you are employed there. That could probably be argued all day long but thats simply the way it is. They also left it open ended as to imply it was something I had done which caused them to let me go.
