    This company is in Sumter Florida, very unusual company, they hire you on as a contract driver, you do not get any Per Diem, in fact they want you to put a $300 security deposit on their trucks, they have many fines if you don't follow their rules. Now here is the kicker, I went through their orientation & drug screen, the safety officer came in and announced to the entire orientation class that everyone has pass the DOT drug screening and everyone was cleared to go. With that said, I was issued my route and truck, ready to leave the next day. Low and behold the safety officer, called me the following morning and all of a sudden I was not cleared, I had somehow failed my drug test.. Now here's the worst part, I do not do drugs! So how did the test go from passing one day to failing the next day? And I should put the safety officers name out there, being she is such a #####, long story short, I had a blood test done at VA prior to the DOT piss test, I contacted VA and had a drug screen run on the blood test, it was negative, the day Tammy (oop's it slipped) called me and said I wasn't clear I went and had a DOT drug screening done, It also came back negative. So some how, Time Definite either got a bad result or someone in safety is a dirty nasty person (Tammy - #### it slipped Again) I called Tammy W the safety officer and told her i had a negative result from a blood test prior to the DOT screening and another negative result after their DOT screening, she made the comment "well that doesn't matter, you have a history" Well, having a history or not, that has nothing to do with "all of a sudden having a positive DOT test result - after being declared negative" So Time Definite Services is a place to really watch, read that entire (several hundred page) hand book, and watch yourself. there is a reason they are always looking for drivers, well they won't get me again. I hired an attorney, Time Definite is headed for litigation soon, Tammy W I hope will be looking for work soon. I have never met anyone or any company Like Tammy W and Time Definite Services. Be Very Careful.

    They are all over Craigslist down here, that should be your first hint, and second should be the fact the are paying you 1099. Can I ask why you didn't have your second sample tested?

    Did you receive notice from the MRO before the safety person talked to you? As far as I know, by law, they are required to inform you of the positive result first before they tell the company so that you can get the 2nd tube tested.

    No, MRO didn't call - It's all good, I have a better career now and enjoy what I do, so maybe it was a blessing in disguise.

    I understand the $300 is for a pet deposit which I agree with but if the rest of these stories are true then I'll pass on this outfit.And by the way Mr.Recruiter you did confirm the pet deposit which is what I was referring to.
