I have been with swift for 19 months, and all I can tell you is that you are sorta starting at a bad time. For some reason freight is slow atm and when december gets here it is slow all the way to easter... I see you already started school at swift. But from one that knows you are not going to make any extra money teaming then solo at swift. UNLESS you can get on a good dedicated team account, exp DHL or Fed ex or something BOL I wouldn't still be here if I didn't get the dedicated im on at swift. For the meanwhile since I can't seem to find anything hiring local in my area. Im now home every day and off on weekends. So I will stay here untill it dries up.
