    Thanks to all who have posted... I spoke with Swift and explained my concerns and the recruiter affirmed everything you guys have mentioned. At least he didnt deny it... anyhow, I am going to train with a mentor on the dedicated account and if I feel it isn't for me, then he'll place me on a regional run when I complete my training.

    I was with Werner doing the Dollar General account. They set your truck at 61MPH, 30CPM, $40 unload pay, and very short miles. If you like to work your butt off, you can make at least $1,000/week when the trailers are loaded on time. I was out of the Bessemer DC and I always had to wait for my next trailer to be loaded. There are some catches to the account though. Dollar tree has roller, Dollar General has rolltainers. Both have the trailers literally packed to the trailer ceiling. Be very careful, this account is a very easy way to get hurt.

    Does anyone know anything about Boyd and Sons in Washington,IN? I know they are a smaller company, not to be confused with Boyd Bros.
