Does SWIFT have a choice between smoking and non-smoking mentors?

Try to the best of your ability to give up smoking. Not only will your body thank you, but so will your wallet.

I work retail here in Wichita KS.
A pack of cigarettes can range from $3.95 a pack to $6.75 a pack. A carton of cigarettes can range from $37.50 a carton to $65.50 a carton. From what I understand, the costs are much higher in various other parts of the U.S.A..

I have customers who are on oxygen machines still buying both packs and cartons of cigarettes. From what I can see, it is an extremely addictive habit, SADLY and UNFORTUNATELY, becoming a very deadly habit.

Good luck to you on both your truck driving career and your health!

 

Why does everyone always want to yry to get people to quit. If they enjoy smoking nothing you say or do will make a person stop. All you need to do is answer the question that was asked not butt into and try to force your thoughts onto them.

 

What a wonderful habit. Tell me, when it's time to change your filters, how do you go about it?

 

If I remember correctly they do. When I trained with them I asked for a non smoker and I got a non smoker.

 

OK, we all know "smoking is bad for you." But count me in on the side of being sick and tired of folks trying to force their point of view on other folks. I think they just do it to feel superior.

That being said, I wonder just how long it will be before trucking companies will refuse to hire drivers who smoke. There are a lot of places in other types of jobs that have a "NO SMOKING" policy written in stone.

 

Don't worry about finding a smoking trainer at Swift. They all smoke a Swift. No joke.

You need to ask how you will be able to afford smokes while working at Swift. Once again, no joke!

 

awww...thanks driver

 

I never try to influence others to quit smoking. Smoking is a personal choice. I enjoyed smoking; especially late at night driving along the freeway with a hot cup of coffee and listening to some good music on the radio. I quit for my own reasons and it doesn't bother me to be around smokers.

 

With Swift you are given two choices.

1. Male or female.
2. Smoking or non-smoking.

They will try their best to match you up, but no promises either way unless you are willing to wait for the right person.
