Question for recent tmc hires

Remember its a two week interview, act accordingly. $100 would be tight for me but maybe not someone else. Theres no fridge in the rooms (unless that changed since I been there) and once a week (or more if they are nice) they stop at Walmart or if you buddy up with someone that drove there. My roommate had his own car and it was nice, of course everyone wanted to be his friend lol.

From the sounds of it your hair doesn't sound extreme at all so I think you'd be good.

Good luck

 

BTW Big Red, Thank you for your service!

 

lmaooo big red i hear ya; i tried to go in the army but being with my physical condition, all branches told me to stay away that they would call if they needed me, lol; i agree with mommas; thank u for ur service

 

Really? Why are you asking these kinds of questions? If this is how you wanna roll, you'll probably be alot better off with somebody else. They dont call TMC the Truckers Marine Corps for nothing.

 

Hey Big Red
I'm from Opelika AL Too. Let me know when you are going to orientation. Im going Des Moines here soon. Are you takin the bus or plane up there?

 

I would recommend the plane. I am starting week 4 with my trainer this week. I flew there for orientation. The first few days you will hear all the stories of the guys sitting on a bus for 30 to 40 hours. One of my friends arrived Monday morning the day of orientation with time to check in and drop bags then get on the bus. He caught the bus in SC on the Friday before. Good luck also!

 

The bus ride for me would be 29hrs from Virginia. Sucks but the closes airport to me would be Knoxville TN and thats 3 1/2 hrs away. And the tickets are $350.00, Bus is 170.00 so I may go the plane way but hate to spend the money. Id be able to buy that camera, and heating blanket with the money i would save from the bus ride. But we'll see. How are away did they find a trainer from you. Im worried mine will be far away and how is it drivin, does the trainer make you drive all the time or is it a team drive?
