    Hey Tip,Why do you always refer to Swift as "SWIFTQUIT" ?What do you mean by that remark?Has Swift changed now that ole Jerry is back in charge?
    And it's a private company again.I wonder if they'll go back to Freightliner?

    If I go to work for 'em today, I'll be quitting them tomorrow. That's pretty swift. But they'd only be living down to their reputations.

    Ditto for JobHunt. Go to work for 'em today, be looking for a new job tomorrow.

    Yeap, I'm afraid it's true. SwiftQuit is that desperate. They live down to their moniker every day of the world.

    Have you left for Crete yet, Vegas?

    Nice. Best of luck to you. When I was ready to go to Lincoln, CCC set me up in a rental car all by my lonesome to run from Salt Lake. Even set me up in a motel in Laramie, Wyoming.

    When I got to Omaha, I had a hotel room all by myself for the entire orientation period.

    I've been to orientations that had 4 guys in a single hotel room (with only two beds). When I hired on at SwiftQuit, I had to find my own ride from Greer, SC back home to Virginia after I finished orientation. There weren't enough trainers to go around at that terminal, so five guys piled into an Olds the last day and off we went.

    What a crock some of these outfits are.
