    Recruiters are commission based. He missed out on getting his nickle for you getting through orientation and was trying a second time to collect it.

    Never You Mind Freightlines is my guess.

    Why is that the first question that people ask?

    Even if it wasn't corporate policy I wouldn't divulge whom I work for and where I live. Too many trolls and crack heads in this world!

    Dropdeck, glad to hear you got with company X. Still the whole tarp debacle sucks. Im wordering if you sae alot of drivers on light duty at the hotel with back issues? That may be why they had the physical therapist there.

    Yeah I meet a few at the hotel. One guy rode the hotel shuttle van to pick us up from gray hound. He was a nice guy with a good sense of humor . We were all telling jokes on the way back to the hotel. I'm not sure what he was on lite duty for. He had 101 swift jokes.

    No thier pay and equipment did not match up to my needs. Now I know how you felt on your bus ride home. what a waste of my time. If I did not get the boot I would have stayed there. I don't mind stupid rules . I put up with that for ten years at my last job. In reality TMC is just another driver mill with a high turn over rate.

    I believe the question was directed to dropdeck! Here in the state of North Carolina, we call this"conversation." Really,if your skin is that thin, maybe you should wear a thicker shirt.
