    Caught a bonus showing up on my pay statements. No idea what its for or why we got them but it seems to be a company wide deal. I wonder what swift is coughing up cash to each driver for and how much we lost because they paid us that.

    This is different, check your pay statements.

    I got it too. After taxes it is exactly $50 deposited.

    I wish the statement said what it was for.

    I just checked my statements from the last few weeks and I'm not seeing any bonus'.

    There is a class-action lawsuit currently going on...someone suing Swift over the way they compute mileage paid. When I read the first few posts to this thread, that lawsuit was the first thing that came to mind.

    I'd like to have someone sign me up for ultra-large bonus' please! :biggrin_25523:

    I doubt it.

    $53 would not go very far in making up for 10-15% in the past year for miles lost.

    If it is that, it is a weak token gesture that fails.
