I also plan on having my tanker/hazmat endorsements by the time I go with a company.

Also 1 of the main things that is attracting me to TMC is their training. 7 weeks is how long I thought my CDL class should have been. 7 weeks AFTER you get your CDL is excellent to me....and hopefully someone that actually works for TMC reads this: do they have the option of having a route that would have me home everyday or @ least multiple times a week? Of course not starting off, I definitely wanna hit that road but that may have to be an option for me in the future.

1st off I wanna say wassup to everybody and introduce myself. Forgive me if this gets long, I can be a little long-winded @ times lol. I just recently got my CDL. (about 3 wks ago). We had a recruiter come out from Schneider (the 1st week) and really try to sell us on the company. Wasnt to bad. Liked some of what I heard, some I didn't. Also had a guy that graduated earlier this year come to the range and talk to us about TMC.....and I forgot all about Schneider :-/......Done my fair share of research on TMC and 95% (if not higher) of the things I hear are great. I really like what they seem to be about. BUT I also dont like to jump @ the 1st thing that comes along. Came here and lurked a time or 2 during class so I know there's more knowledge here than I can fathom. And there's 50,736 trucking companies :-/ who has time to research all that?? So I figured I'd ask the source. I'll be honest Schneider was pretty much a no go w/me because of their rider policy. Just doesnt fit my situation right now. TMC's is only 3 mos...Another big selling point w/me is the fact that you get your own truck....that's HUGE to me.....annnnnnd the percentage pay. Which according to almost ALL of yall is the way to go lol. So as of now I'm REALLY liking TMC. But like I said I havent really compared it to a lot. So I wanna know it all. Tell me about your experiences with TMC, is that the way to go? Where else should I be looking? Because I do know that it's very hard to get on with them (no I'm not ex-military) so I defintely dont wanna put all my eggs in 1 basket. Post comments, links, whatever. I'd really appreciate any and all info that I can get so I can choose the right company and start tearin up this road. Preciate it....
