Whats it like with a Swifty trainer?
Do they run it like a solo operation for a week then go team, or what?
Do they make you do a certain amount of backs, or loads with the trainer?
Is training always 4 weeks?
If you get stuck with a slob are they pretty open to putting you with someone else?
What's the final road test like at the terminal?
Do they let you bring truck home?
Do they have a certain period before you can have a rider?
I know some of these have been asked, but please do respond to my questions as I can't find each answer completely...

Did you do a search? Pretty sure all your questions have been answered somewhere on the board.

I sure can't find anyone explaining the details of what its like with trainer(other than he was a slob, bleh bleh), or what the final road test is like, or whether they require a certain amount of backs, or w/e with trainer. I also can't find where they say if there is a distance between being able to bring truck home, or not..

Find a stranger ... invite them to live with you in your bathroom for 6 weeks, sleep in the tub, only come out 3 to 4 times a day and have them explain to you what you are supposed to do every day, every minute.

Thanks! I was really curious of those ?'s because I am in a mix between Schneider & Swift. I'm kinda liking Schneider's 2 weeks out with a trainer alittle more, but the Swift recruiter has been really good to me versus the Schneider recruiter.
I was curious about the rider policy because I read elsewhere that you could have a rider immediately after soloing.. -
Change bathroom and tub to closet. Your leading the OP to a false assumption that either he or his room mate will be getting a daily shower
There is NO tub in a big truck 
BTW, what color chalk is that? LOL
