    Don't apologize, you posted something humorous and then somebody got their panties in a wad. This is why drivers on the cb at the truckstop don't got no panties, they're always wadding them up.

    The whole Swift bashing thing is so old by now. Sure it had its moment in the sun.......but.....really...when is enough enough? 99.99% of the "Swift Bad" stuff comes from folks who have never driven for the company, and men who still act like 13 year old boys in a chat room. DISCLAIMER: I got my start with Swift almost 5 years ago at the ripe old age of 56. Had great schooling/instructors. A good "Mentor" (Swift speak for road trainer). I have since moved on to another Company. I was never forced into indentured servitude with Swift, never paid peanuts, never felt "locked in" to a contract, drove nice new equipment, was never micromanaged, left with an eligible for rehire in my file, overall had a great experience. I am pushing 400k miles in my OTR Career. I have never had a service failure, never failed a DOT Inspection, (only had one). Scored 100% on that one and Swift paid me $100.00. I have never had an accident, incident, put a scratch or ding on a tractor or trailer. I have become a competent efficient Driver. I also make a very nice living in this industry. Just my $.02

    The object ofSwift bashing is just pointing out Swift bashing objects.

    It was still funny. And it was just a joke, posted by someone that as he pointed out used to work for SWIFT, which tends to be where you get all the good jokes, current or past drivers.

    Swift today! JB Hunt 30 years ago. There is always going to be a carrier others make fun of. Honestly I still joke about the heck JB and Schneider drivers caught when they got in the left lane. psss a little secret, I still crack JB jokes even today!

    The best Swift jokes that I have ever heard came from Swift drivers.
