Driver Appreciation Week 2022
During Driver Appreciation Week 2022, office employees at select locations had a chance to test their backing skills and to get a taste of what our drivers do to keep their trucks looking sharp. They were playing for a chance to win prizes for drivers. Through these exercises, we are reminded of the hard work and dedication it takes to be able to be successful as a TMC driver! Daily random drawings and trivia questions offered drivers more ways to win gift cards and other prizes.
We had about 30 people from TMC management traveling throughout the week to meet drivers on the road. Some rode along with drivers, including our EVP-Operations, Travis Johnson, VP-Linehaul Operations, Tim Heim, VP-Dedicated Operations, Chris Buckingham, and IT Project Manager, Daniel Stone. Managers from several departments were stationed at truck stops and customer sites. Many of our vendors sponsored lunches and giveaways.
Thank you to all the TMC employees who helped with activities and getting out to serve drivers. Additonally, a special thank you to those who support our drivers and understand the importance of their daily work.
Encouraging words from one of our valued customers:
“I truly cannot say thank you enough on a day like today. Our loading space is extremely limited and then add some wind and rain and we can get backed up in no time. I currently have at least 5 TMC trucks onsite for loading and we can only load one at a time. The driver has to stay under our awning to tarp, so you can only imagine what our parking lot looks like. TMC truly has the MOST respectful, kind and safest drivers I have ever come across. They all have smiles on their faces and are more than understanding and patient with us and this is almost unheard of these days. THIS is why I ignore calls and emails from other companies. The service you provide is OUT OF THIS WORLD! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!
