    This is good planing and wish I took an extra month to hit the gym to train before I went there. As for where I go from here. There are a couple to choose from but I need to be home weekly so this may rule out skateboards for a bit.

    TMC has over 2300 trucks in their fleet. Over 10000 trailers. And they are expanding as they have acquired more freight and dedicated routes. Just letting you know.

    Coincidentally I received a pre hire today. Super excited. I had some concerns about my history and was waiting to hear back before starting school. Hopefully ill have something of substance to add to this thread someday.

    Im not 100% positive but I believe they go by the FMCSA guidlines so if you have a med card for two years their dot physical would be no diff. But like I said not sure cause my blood pressure is 120/80. The nurse said I had the best pressure of the whole cass. And so I nevery really paid attention to it.
