Well well if it isn't mr Hugh "$22 and a uniform" Hefner himself. Actually I was enjoying myself, but I dislike dealing with incompetence. Doesn't mean all companies are like this and if they are I'll be going back to local. I can get a job paying damn near your rate in a heartbeat. But I don't want to drive local. Though I must say if I were to drive local than South Florida is the best place to be. I just get bored real easily.

By the way man are you gay? Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you have this thing with pickle parks. I've been out here close to 6 months and I don't think I've had more than two conversations with people at truck stops.

Well that's all for me. You rest up ColdFrosty, tomorrow you have to get back to work and see the same people and the same sights. But I do recall how you mentioned how at one stop the dock worker recognized you and you got to bypass the whole line of OTR losers. Boy you must of felt like royalty that day . Well if it works for you guy.


By the way, lets not forget that I do agree with your assesment of OTR, but I'm either going to make this work or I'll leave.

 

Well, despite all the blatant hostility directed towards me, I do wish you the best. Not sure why you took my post as being an attack, I honestly thought you enjoyed those aspects of the job. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Oh well. Happy Easter to you and yours and I sincerely hope you find what you're looking for!

 

Well thank you. Excuse the blatant hostility. You know you always are posting negative things. Though not really personal attacks but general ones. Anyway I do apologize.

I do enjoy the traveling aspects but like I said it's the incompetence. You know sometimes I'm waiting to get unloaded and am really lost in my own world on the computer or reading etc and then it hits me "these SOB's are taking advantage of me". And thank you I hope I find what I'm looking for too. I think I just need to get my own truck. I like being in control of my own affairs. Not sitting out there cause same lame in the dispatch office doesn't feel like working.

Well again I do apologize and hope that you enjoy Easter as well with your family.

 

Merrick... When I re-read Alien's original post, I saw where he'd already gotten his CDL, so I... ahem... kinda jumped the gun on my comment about some of us not being able to pay for school. I didn't even think of State assistance with school until I read the other day on this site about it. It seems you need to be unemployed to get it? I'm not considered unemployed yet, and when I am, I'll need to be in a CDL class already! Actually I have the money for school, but need to hang onto that as a cushion for the next several months when I'm making a pentance training. :shock: It seems Arizona isn't quite as abundant with trucking companies that will loan the money for school. Even Scheider isn't hiring here. CRST runs only teams, and I got accepted with England, but deciding between them and Swift, I probably should choose Swift. I hope I didn't sound offensive when I wrote that people with no complaints don't have time to post. It goes back to the ole'bad news travels faster than good... Best of luck to'ya...

 

 

Hey Coastie... I was a Coastie as well... neways. I'm offended lol... All of the posts I've had about Swift and my experiences (mostly good) goin thru school and mentorship and stuff and none of your links are any of them LOL.

Here's my blog while going thru Swift School

 

Well I know I did not get them all. Just looked for swift and copied the links DId not mean to Offend anyone, lol.. I'll PM you about the CG.

 

Yeah its all good just raggin a fellow coastie

 

Exactly.

 

Swift is a great place for a newbie to start, learn all you can then go for better job at a good smaller company for more pay after you got it all figured out, a good company is NOT FFE, I am thinkin maybe KLLM is a GOOD company...
