Well, in re reading your posts, looks to me like you had tried to bury something way deep. If they didn't find it in the pre app., then they didn't find it during orientation and then it finaly showed up when they told their insurance company they had assigned a truck the red lights lit up the office.

looks like yea i don't deny that but i aint hiding nothing, the job in question wasn't even a driving job at that - recruiter's job was to dot all i's and t's before i finished orientation - the recruiter didn't do their job point blank period. alright now with all respect to brownboy there no more on this post.

ps - just for your head eagle boy - the lady on the phone, the one who screwed up, was on maternity leave and thats why it fell through the cracks. however once again not MY fault

So he guided you to SWIFT? I thought all of the professional drivers hated them.

papa said - "biggest company - most freight and they all suck as bad as the other"
but for brown boy there no more on this post
but yea he regrets saying that now....

I have no love for Swift, seems like whichever T/S you pull into there is a Swift truck that has made it's own parking spot on any flat surface it can find (think they teach that at Swift school) whatever it blocks up even the fuel island. BUT, with the turn over, and drop out from orientation, they have I can see where they don't do deep backgrounds till someone is actualy going to take off with $85000 of truck and trailer and $1000000 plus load.

yea i get where you're coming from eagle but if thats true i've already hauled loads with my truck so even then its a day late and a dollar short..

man brownboy i'm sorry for real but i think this thread has officially been HIJACKED :shock: :twisted: :evil:

who you pulling for Eagle? they sound pretty decent - if they'll pay you dispatched miles even when they screw up i imagine i'd be getting a little better treatment then i've gotten with swift. to date in one weeks time this is the 3rd paperwork fiasco by SWIFT where the driver (me) got the short end of the stick. financially speaking of course.

like eagle said about his company goofing up and how they handled it plus what i've seen with my dad i know how a class act operates and SWIFT is no class act.

good for you. :roll:

Aint telling you, or anyone, who I pull for Just have them pissed off with a bunch of phone calls.
Just saying you have to stick with something and take the shit. Did that for many years then these people came looking for me, was happy where I was, word gets around and they recruted me.

well... PM me then cause if I stay at swift I'm gonna end up in jail for murder LOL - i'm here now to warn others and look for a new place to hang my hat. like i said i have previous experience... but since it was more than 3 years ago most places won't even talk to me.... so far i've found a couple places that don't care either way when i drove just that i have... i latched on a swift cause i didn't have a lot of time to make a decision and it seemed ok on the outside.... talk about looks are decieving

LOL i think 9ball sniffed us out a recruiter LOL and here i felt bad for f#cking up his post-

a recruiter? i dunno- does UPS even need recruiters?
UPS is a good job -- 70K seems a little bit of a high amount.... but i don't know what a 'feeder' is or whatever it is he does...
i was just thinking that since most of us here are OTR drivers there's no need to come on here and gloat about having a better job than the rest of us.
