Are you going to their academy or orientation? If it's the academy I wouldn't sweat it. They take everyone to a clinic the first day for drug testing and physicals if something was missing on the paperwork you came in with.
-
Naw Im goin to orientation...Im supposed to have Peemit and Physical b4 I get there...
-
You told then you don’t have a CDL and you are suppressed that the card has “No” checked for a CDL?
Do you have one or not?
If you don’t then it would seem to be correct. A permit is NOT a CDL and most schools want you to have a permit when you start schooling.
Also how are you going to orientation if you don’t have a CDL yet? It seems to me you are going to their school to get a CDL (the academy), not orientation. Orientation is for new to Swift drivers that have a CDL already. -
And if you have a permit and not the full cdl yet then you can't work for anyone yet
-
You don't recieve your peemit until you become a driver. That license permits you to dump your urine bottles anywherepattyj Thanks this.
-
You have a cdl permit and not the actual cdl so you checking no was the correct box.But when in doubt call Swift.

Now THAT right there.................that made me laugh.........not uncontrollably..........but dang near it.Polarbear25 Thanks this. -
Your card is fine. As of date of issuance.......you DON'T have a cdl. No worries. Good luck; and don't sweat the small stuff. -
I actually went back and they did make a mistake...they said with the no cdl checked I would not be able to drive a CDL approved vehicle...I beleive they said jus straight trucks or sumthin like that...but they ended up changing it to yes...so Im good now...
KenworthGuyNH Thanks this.
