Here's what some of our employees have to say about working at TCS:
"
We do the same thing everyday, but it is never ever the same;
always different people, places and challenges. "
Charlotte Timms
Vice-President
The Convention Store
"
One of the best things about working at TCS, aside from the
people, is that they allow employees the opportunity to give input
and work on various projects. They recognize that an employee
may have been hired for one specific job, but this doesn't mean
they are limited to that area. They capitalize on the talent found
in their organization and are willing to help nurture it for the
benefit of both person and company."

"
I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation
for the opportunity to work for such a wonderful owner of a well
established company such as The Convention Store.
I truly enjoy working for TCS because it's a growing and evolving
organization, which makes it very exciting to learn about all
the different types of transportation needs and usage for daily
commuting. The high demands of daily commuting have shown me how
much less stressful it is to get out of my car and let public
transportation do the driving for me. All the knowledge I have
received within my six years at TCS, has allowed me to share with
family, friends and a host of people the benefits of public transportation.
I meet people from all walks of life on a daily basis, some traveling
to and from work, doctor's appointments, shopping centers, tourist
hot spots, etc., and I share traveling information with them.
Not only are we top in daily commuter transportation needs, but
I truly believe we have some of the best people working day-in
and day-out to make TCS the success it is. Working at TCS gets
you much more that just a paycheck. I am highly grateful to work
for a company committed to helping employees balance career and
family, which requires some of the most difficult decisions of
anyone's career. TCS allows flexibility in scheduling working
hours to better fit the rest of your life.
Along with TCS health benefits and a great leave policy, I have
received other great benefits like the opportunity to travel,
casual dress, on the job training, a great and fun work environment,
wonderful management and staff, and more. These are some of the
reasons why I enjoy working with this company. If I could, I would
write a book about all the wonderful reasons why I enjoy working
for TCS and why others should consider working for TCS. I look
forward to future opportunities for us to work together."
