    Hello-

    My name is DANGER. I am a 100% bonified women. I also am going back to swift on wends to do my tie down class for swift then out on the road with a trainer for however long that takes. I had to leave after orientation because the school I went through was not releasing my old drug screen info. But I blew up their phones and magically they got sick of me and turned it over, thank goodness. Soo I had to go home because they couldnt keep paying for me to be in the hotel when i did not have a driver code.

    Next week wends I am supposed to be going back down and starting my tie down class on thurs. I hope all of this goes through I have fought long and hard for this and I will keep pushing forward even if it does fall through because of FFE.

    Well anyhow I would like to just say hello, and for all you swift drivers I am hopefully going to be joining your team!

    Danger,

    Just curious, are you with another flatbed mentor or driving vans during your mentorship?

    yes I was with a female mentor for flatbed. Flatbed in my mind is the only way to go. Swift took me off her truck after an inside inspection stating that it was not livable and took her mentorship status. I now have a male mentor and he is flatbed aswell. I am loving it.

    just courious what was that bad about her truck? i only ask because ive heard about some nasty trainers but never heard about the trainer not only looseing a student but being a trainer too. (good job btw, no need for dirt bag trainers) :biggrin_25514:
