I have never gotten a threat or post about a phone number. I told someone that I thought it was stupid to post a phone number a couple weeks ago. I could probably find the thread if I needed to but I really dont want to.

I was only taking a stab in the dark, your post was a bit confusing the way you worded it, so I just guessed. But I did get it almost right it was about posting a phone number so to speak...sorry for the misunderstanding steelersfan...BTW, I still haven't given up on the "Los Angeles Rams"...LOL

Did they tell you what the secret was? What was the medical condition?

Your thoughts about certain things you have posted are your issues with Swift and you..yet you continue to fault anyone who disagrees with you. You have not been disallowed your right to speak your mind, some, like me disagree with what you say...freedom of speech goes for both sides of the street..pro and con of any subject. However it does not allow personal indictments of another person, or the words of another person, unless the words are threatening, libelous, or blatantly false and demeaning.

You are doing your best to turn this thread, a thread that many read to find out what happens, on a daily, as it occurs documentation of the activities at a Swift academy. Nana tried to do the same thing, and there were a couple who did exactly what you are doing to this thread. Trying to pick a fight and get the thread closed by a moderator due to the bickering back and forth.

Please stop your anti-Swift tirade and allow Ford to post what he started. Allow him to finish his academy and document what happens during his time. There are threads for those who have a dislike for Swift. Post all your attacks on Swift, their academies, and the Swift personell to the sections that are purposed for the bad of companies. Let Fords thread continue without disparaging sentiments from you or others that have a bad taste for Swift.

The latest attempt to turn this thread from what it is, is turning to political twists and turns. there are threads for politics also...move over there and start your own thread and have a good time getting jumped on by anyone who opposes your viewpoint there...but be careful, they don't just use inuendo and second hand information..they research, back their posts with links, actual active links that support their side, and also have links that go against what they beleive and refute the claims...so have fun spinning over on the threads designed for your spin and outrage.

Thank you for showing Ford a little respect, and the others who are using this thread for its intended purpose!
OH - It's been a while since I've run into someone as close minded as yourself, thus my Hypocrite comment. You still don't get it. Nightwawk got it. No negativity - no tirade - Frankly, no different then your right to speak your beliefs. ALL I have been attempting to do is to throw out a couple of red flags....factual events that have happened recently and are continuing to happen. Just think people, including yourself, need to get the blinders off. Nothing "spoiled" at all here. Just because I don't agree with YOUR words??? That's makes me "spoiled"? At least I believe in the words you speak re "both sides, pro and con". Why can't you? Right back to the hypocrite thought.

I think it's time we all gave this a break. We've all said what needed to be said. I think Ford was able to gleen all the info he needed.

By the way OH and Nana - Happy Fourth! Let's do the right thing and truly believe in it....then live it.

I don't know what you mean but I do know that I warned Nighthawk on the thread and I sent him a pm. He seemed to be grateful. If my warning someone about the forum rules is offensive to you then I suggest you report my post to the mods. No offense on my part if you do.

Do you know how long it should be before I recieve my first check? I cant afford to just quit my job, go without pay for a month and expect to have a house and everything in the end. I have bills to pay. Thats the only thing holding me back. I sure would appreciate any help and advice. And Ford, thank you for doing this training diary kind of thing. It is quite helpful. Keep it up!

Look up your local job center - they have a program that will pay for your training with a grant - I think it is WIA (pronounced Wee). It has something to do with the last stimulus package congress pass. You might have to check with a couple of different counties as some counties here in Colorado have all ready gone through their monies. But then you can go to a local school during your off hours. It really does remove a lot of stress - and besides it pays for the training so you don't have to pay it back.

WindJammer - I am very new to this web site - but I have to agree with OtherHalf and some of the others - I have gotten to the point that I see your nick and just skip over it - you last several post have all been the same.

I am not trying to be mean or show you any disrespect. Actually I am glad you posted your original post as it has given me new information to ask and gain additional knowledge. I am not trying to tell you to leave the thread. I am really trying to be friendly. But enough all ready; post something new.

Sorry that wasn't my intent. I pointed out to someone who posted a phone # in a thread before and it wasnt recieved nicely. My post in no way was a slam on your post. I actually agree with that rule.

Can't please everyone -
Please re-read my last post. I believe you will see I, too, thought this thread should end. But thanks for reading, in any event.
Long live Swift!....and all the drivers sitting in their bobtails.
