    Yea no complaints from me. Just have to get the timing right because I am planning on moving from Philadelphia to Jacksonville and I believe the refresher is only valid for 30 days.

    Whizkid, if you could go to Walmart and work 80 hours a week and make more then I did at TMC, I would love to see you prove that because I don't see how that's even close to possible getting paid 10-15 bucks an hour....

    Hey gunner, I kinda jumped around your post and you may have answered this question already but why do people choose flat bed over other trucking jobs? Why did you?

    Generally flatbed pays more overall, I did it because my grandfather was a flatbetdder and so was my dad. Other reasons some choose flatbed over driving a box is because you will stay in good shape from the tarping and chaining plus climbing up and down the loads.

    wheres your man hood? Fixing lights takes a minute. You fill out an expense form and send it in. You get it on your next check. Sounds like you're some sort of worthless swift reject. I'm guessing you thought Harold would give you the golden nuggets straight out of training? You have to work for what you get. Learn how to be a working man and maybe you can succeed at man hood. For now, you may wanna check your down stairs. Actually, I know women who ##### less than you for making far less. All the time at the shipper and long hours is their fault, not Tmc. Working till 11? That's on you. You can stop whenever you'd like, cupcake. Man up.
