For example: An o/o hires me to team drive with him and he runs for Swift. Am I an employee of the o/o or Swift?
Who's the boss?

You answered your own question "An O/O hires me". The O/O is your boss, however, you play by Swift's rules. The O/O pays you.
gpsman, DrtyDiesel and pattyj Thank this. -

What if the guy I was looking to hire had been previously terminated from the company due to an accident, drugs, tickets, etc. Can I hire him as an o/o or does the company control that?
-
gpsman Thanks this.
-
Yeah, Swift would have the final say with whoever an O/O would hire.
-
Cousin, speeding tickets...
-
Sorry, gotta ask - why would you work for swift under another owner operator? I assume he will be taking his cut of the pie - thereby reducing what you could make working directly for swift.
I'm sure there is a rationale reason - could someone enlighten me? -

He is not looking to hire on to an O/O, he is the O/O looking to hire his cousin who apparently was dismissed by them for speeding tickets.bergy Thanks this.
