I would say that area where he lives would be great just because of how much we haul out of Bennettsville.
Greetings everyone! I am a 21-year USN vet who retired 10 years ago. I applied to TMC and followed up with Laura. She stated TMC would hire me upon completion of my CDL-A up here in MN. I currently have CDL-B w/ passenger endorsement. I am more than a little concerned after reading this entire forum for a couple reasons: (1) A few surgeries, e.g., hernia repair in 1994, 2 shoulder surgeries//1 in '87 and another last year, and carpal tunnel surgeries on both wrists but I am fully recovered and strong; (2) An apparently high attrition rate that seems to be upwards of 75%. Am I wasting my time? It sounds like I will be bounced pretty quick. There are generic reasons on here for attrition and I am concluding that medical and inability are the lion's share?
Would be great to hear how things went for you, getting going with TMC. I too have been away from the trucking for almost as long and wanting to get back into it. TMC is on of the three choices on my list. Thanks and hope all is well.
Well i knew the scar would give it away so i called and told my recruiter about my knee surgery i had 11 years ago in high school. She said a surgery that long ago is no problem. Especially since i pulled 8 years as Marine infantry with no problems. I was just worried I'd get there and get sent home.
Thanks for the info USRAMC. I've been strong as a horse since. OBTW, I was a Hospital Corpsman. Would gladly "eat one" for my marines. Semper Fi!
Milskired, I was "haze gray and underway" almost my entire career. AD-43, ARL-24, T-AH20, FFG-53, DD-987, CVN-74. Man, I bet we've flushed more seawater than many others have sailed over!
1/2 bravo for 4 years, 2d LAR for 2 then a body bearer at 8th & I for my last 2. Some of my best Marines were corpsmen.lol. and my first deployment was on the uss austin, we sailed right to kuwait then flew into iraq, that was the 22nd meu.
