    Hello all some of you might remember me from last year when I went to TMC orientation and got sent home on day 3 I think because of some injuries sustained while serving our country but anyway. I had a family emergency that kept me out of trucking since so due to what happened I want to get back into trucking but I really need to be home every weekend. I am looking at TMC and PGT can any drivers tell me how possible this is???? Don't know if I'm going to TMC yet but just trying to get some idea. Thanks in advance.

    I see that you have ask this question a few times.I would go ahead and apply to both companies.then see what happens. You have no driving experience in the past year ?
    I bet any company you go with will want to put you through a refresher course. A year is a long time to go with out any real experience behind the wheel.Are you able to take a refresher course at school ? That may you.I have been looking in to tmc also I have 10 yeast experience so not to sure about there student program. Not sure about PGT I don't think they'd match up to some of the bigger companies . Good luck to you hope you find what your looking for

    I don't think TMC would be a bad move. Pgt has dedicated stuff around Philly I live about 20min. west of there. I have a friend that worked fir them for a while he's an oo but said they got him home everyday. You know my view of TMC though so I'd go with them myself.

    Got ya. Well as you have seen on my TMC post it really bugged me why they sent me home. Right now I was just offered a dedicated run out of Baltimore from PGT so I will be goig there on the 2nd of January. If that doesn't work out then I might try out TMC again after I get the experience. TMC is really high on keeping there trucks clean but they are kind of slow goig up hills and I hear they are roke down alot more then drivers would like but after all that is said that black and chrome is very, very attractive as a recruiting tip. Who knows what will happen but we will see thanks for the info and good luck. When will you be going to TMC.
