Going to swift school

think i did 3000 and 33something the last two weeks, would do it again, i never complained. they seem to have slowed me down this week, hope i didn't make them mad, some of the loads were a bit late, often bc they were closed. just saying year long that's a lot of work.

 

Let me first say, THANK YOU, for your service. Those mere words are never adequate to address the immense debt we owe our servicemen, women and their families. They are all we have though, to let you know how much we respect you.

I'll be starting Labor Day. What to expect?? As with any new endeavor, I "expect" nothing but THE BEST. I read loads of complaints and negativity. TBH, I read the same comments about every company.

I make this challenge to the naysayers, find a company or a business you can start, where you will be top paid with no "learning curve" in the first two years. If you find one, let me know. I'll cancel my trip to Millington and join you in the business.

Expect the best. Learn all you can from the valuable resources at the school. Even with you having driven. If you would forgive the analogy, I look at it as a two year "boot camp".

 

If you do your part Swift will do theirs. I have been here six months and I am happy. Like anything else in life, you get out what you put in. From one vet to another, thanks for your service and good luck.

Finished with the range training. Now home waiting on schedule for my road training. I've been impressed so far.

 

***EDIT***

 

Is your GI BILL covering the school or is SWIFT?

 

do you stalk the swift section just to trash them?? Their pay is better the many other companies, and EVERY company has something people do not like. One thing swift has is freight, and lots of it.
