Hey Useless, Great to hear from you. Thank you for that compliment.

I sorta went back into the IT thing. No real desires to get behind the wheel again unless its in my own little sports car. Been traveling a bunch for pleasure and work. still lurk around here and see whats going on. but never post unless its directed at myself.

and so as to keep it on topic a bit, hell yeah swift s a good place to work. go for it

i have traveled around 22k miles this month, and havnt seen one wrecked swift mobile. :P

All of you people that talk about "horror stories" with Swift are a bunch of idiots. I'm sorry, but its true. I'm driving for Swift right now and they have been great at keeping us running, even at this time of year when freight is slow. I don't know where you people get your information that you spread on these boards, but you must be talking to some really really picky people that expect way too much. No matter where you start, or what industry you are in, you are going to start at the bottom of the barrel and have to work your way up. This is true for every company that hires inexperienced drivers.

All the big carriers, Swift included, are all the same in many many ways. If you ever had anyone explain simple economics to you then you would realize that for yourself and quit knit picking them all based on word of mouth.

Just because one person might have thought they got "screwed over" by a certain company or whatever says they did, doesn't mean that no one should work for that company.
