Frankly I would like to ask the troll here, if every time that you where with a company that your truck was broke down and you had to do what they said would you be filling out applications just to go somewhere else every time. If your truck was broke down in 1 year for 3 times would you be changing jobs??? I am very curious.

He he deserves better for his loyalty. The endpaparas and scottied67 Thank this. -
Also. I've worked for 3 companies in 8 years. So the last thing I do is job hop. (3 years as a leased on as O/O at current job)

Some of it is me just being cranky, some of it warranted and some of it just me.
I've thought about changing companies in the past, not recently, but overall I've learned the Swift system and I'm learning how to use it to my advantage. Every once in a while something like this comes up that is mostly out of my control but its not too often. The thing with this truck is that its mostly the AC issue but otherwise the truck has worked good. Granted its only been a month but this is only my 3 truck with Swift in 2 years. I'm one of the lucky Ines as I've heard and read horror stories of drivers with trucks with serious problems. My first truck was traded in on mileage but it had a few problems. Second truck I traded in when I left for vacation. Then I got this one late December. The AC issue has been universal with all of them.
Not to say I will stay with Swift forever but for now I'm going to. My work history for the previous 5 years was crap before driving for Swift - unemployed, underemployed and self employed. A mark against me. So for now I just need to be consistent at one company for a while, clean up my work history and try to reach this goal of becoming platinum.
Things could change in the more distant future but for now I'm here. -
Just got word as i am sitting in the Jake Brake that my truck is done. Recall parts were fixed or replaced. Keeping my fingers crossed that its actually done this time. If it is hope I can get something to carry me thru the weekend.

No I try not to. I figure no matter what happens it could always be worse.
Speaking of worse Im in my truck back in line. Went to claim my truck, started it and the wipers and washers are stuck on. Only way to shut them off is yo shut the truck off. This is turning out to be a rough week. -
DocWatson Thanks this.
