My Time With MCS (Motor Carrier Services)

My husband is also going to Trainco (out of Perrysburg, OH) and MCS gave him a call... he is considering it, but the guy on the phone told him that he would have to bring his truck home... is this true? Do you have to take your truck home? It sounds like you are enjoying your job, and it is reassuring to hear you got such good miles right off the bat. We live in Toledo, so I am not sure how far Northwood is, but we really have no where to park a truck... do you know if they help you find a place to park it? Thanks in advance.

 

I just googled the terminal, and it appears to be less than 20 minutes away...

 

You are right, I had my letters mixed up, different company... BUT, he did get an offer from MCS since I posted... and I am really curious to see how it is going for you. He graduates this weekend, and is ready to get on the road and go, I hope things are great for you, could you let me know if you've been home for the weekends and if your miles have been well. That worries me incredibly.

We also live in Sylvania, and he went to Trainco down in perrysburg (or technically still goes there).

 

That sounds fishy....they let you go just because you overslept? What time did you get to the yard? Did he try to contact you before he left? I'm thinking possibly they found that pic you posted earlier in this thread and somebody got yelled at for it and maybe someone is trying to cover his ***

 

Keep on truckin' is about all you can do. I'm surprised that MCS would say anything to another potential employer about you. They are only supposed to confirm that you were employed there and at what dates. That way you can't sue them for libel or slander or whatever. But I suppose any company who would do that to you isn't worth working for anyway. I'm sure you'll find somewhere else to go. Good luck!

 

My husband finally graduated, and he is waiting to hear back from the recruiter at MCS. Out of the replies he has gotten from the places he applied to, this is the only non-flatbed job.

I was wondering if while you were there, did you get decent miles? (I know you were still in training), and when were you able to come home?

I'm sorry you lost your job over something like that, but I keep hearing good things about Roehl, and I am pretty sure that would be his next step if they didn't accept him.

They said there is an agility test, we're both curious what that entails.

Good luck in your future company.
