    You're right about checking with all the departments. If it's on USIS you may have the same problem again since just about everyone checks with SS numbers. The lady may have one digit off and it may affect you in a negative way. Sounds like you're doing all you can and make sure you document EVERYTHING. You'll need to clean the USIS record too and you may find out they are the hardest of them all. It's not fair because I'm sure you'll need to take the time off the straighten it all out. Continue to be smart and don't let anything ride. Good luck and sorry to hear you're getting screwed right off the bat.

    I was thinking the exact same thing reading through this. I would pull my credit report immediately as well!

    The actual GOVERNMENT site where you can pull your yearly free credit reports is:

    annualcreditreport

    This is not a competitor or commercial site, despite the suffix.

    I just went to all the resources posted above..all of them pulled me up by the social...and they were all just me.Case closed ladies and gents...TMC might be picky about a driving record but apparently they're not that picky about intelligence.I just hope I don't encounter the horror stories I hear about at werner,I'm hoping if I just hang my head low and keep my mouth shut nothing bad will happen.I'll keep you posted.

    I just got my bus ticket I'm due to leave on Tuesday the 27th.It's normally a 4 hour trip by car but we have to make two stops one in DC and the other in Harrisburg,PA.So that makes it about a 7 hour bus trip.

    The problem is that anyone who gets declined with a bad driving record has the same "story" that you do. Even though you are correct I bet a lot of people use the same story. Sort of like the boy who cried wolf, when the recruiters hear the same story they stop believing it, even though you may be correct.

    Yup that's what happens when people let their hiring power go to their heads.:biggrin_25511: Well that ok by me as long as I let as many people know about it so that they can prepare themselves for anything that may or may not happen to them as well knowledge is key,after all.

    thats so true. sorry to hear ya got the short end of the stick with that company. but like you say if they drop the ball on something small like that, paying attention to detail, then i feel quite positive that your experience with them would not be a good one. good luck with weener.
