2021 Quarterly Awards

Driver of the Quarter: Chris Weik

TMC is proud to announce that our Driver of the Quarter for the second quarter of 2021 is Chris Weik. Since getting his first truck in 1977, Weik continues to exemplify an uncompromising dedication to TMC’s high standards. Weik recently paid off his fifth truck and is pushing nearly four million safe miles with TMC. Astonishingly, in spite of his impressive record, he said he didn’t plan to make it this far in the industry!

“I was going to quit after the first million miles, then two came along and then three million, and here I am,” he said. Weik said driving a truck is not for everyone, but it’s a career he has come to love, in part thanks to TMC.

Weik came to TMC after Annett Holdings acquired PFT Trucking. Now 27 years into the industry, Weik’s Operations Manager said his knowledge of the industry is like no other.

“He is one of the most loyal people I’ve ever known. His understanding and trust are second to none. He goes out of his way to take care of our customers, in ways I have never heard of before. This is well deserved for Chris,” Kyle Miller, Weik’s Operations Manager said.

TMC is fortunate to have drivers like Chris Weik, representing the company for so many years. Congratulations, Chris!

Associate of the Quarter: Dylan Lueck

Congratulations to Dylan Lueck for being named our Logistics Associate of the Quarter. During the third quarter of 2021, Dylan increased all of his numbers by a very impressive amount. When compared to the second quarter of 2021, Dylan increased his load count by 176%, his revenue by 208%, and his margin by 205%. As a result of his growth, Dylan has become one of the “goto” Carrier Sales Specialists (CSS) in the Bentonville, AR office. Dylan’s main focus on developing relationships and maintaining consistency in his daily activities has led to his growth in the third quarter of 2021.

Sam Philip, General Manager in Bentonville, AR, said “Dylan started at TMC without prior transportation experience. He quickly became one of the top producing CSSs in the Bentonville office. Dylan handles the southeast region, he has established and grown a sound carrier base while learning a new industry and navigating one of the tightest markets in 2021. His work to build a strong carrier base in his region has been fundamental to the growth of one of the office’s largest accounts. Dylan is reliable, determined, and always goes the extra mile to assist wherever he can. His proactive communication and never-quit attitude shine daily. Dylan’s overall performance, attitude, and growth over the short time he’s been with TMC have been pivotal to the office’s growth. Congratulations, Dylan, very well deserved!”
