I thought Werner was the worst of all. Ok, I will take it back. Maybe these are all bad, only the color of the truck is different.

Swift and Covenant one and the same? Would someone kindly confirm this? I suppose I could look it up. I start school Monday. Swift AND Covenant are both listed on the school's website as being recruiters I will see during my very first week. (I think I am leaning toward US Xpress though). I have heard 'talk' that Swift is not a good company to work for (and not on this forum).

Tahnks for any info...

I drove for Covenant. Not a great company. They treat their student drivers like crap. They are only interested in signing up drivers (they make $$ to do so). If you don't last, no problem, they have more fools lined up to sign up. It is like a turnstile. In and out! Swift, Werner, Covenant....all the same.
