Failed test

Im a little depressed. Went to Swift orientation and failed the driving test. Funny thing is, Swift is the company that I got my CDL with. Not gonna blame anyone but myself for a few reasons. I should have followed my first mind. All the students on the truck was shocked when I broke them the news, saying I did great, and I felt I did too. I havent been in a semi truck since 2008, and I should have refreshed, and gained more confidence before going. Just upset, cause my recruiter told me this road test was not a fail, since I had to go out with a trainer anyway. It was just to see if I could operate the truck safely, and maintain control, which I performed. No point of crying over spoiled milk, anyhow, after I do a refreshing course, Swift said I can come back, but im not. Any ideas or leads on companies that could accommodate someone like me? Driving record is good, just havent drove since 2008, but Im starting a refreshing course shortly.

 

I dont think I want to go back with Swift, and I dont plan on going to another orientation unless I get a week refresher. It was 2 students that went home, and funny thing is we all worked for Swift before. Ive drove coast to coast, with no incidents. I know how to drive, but still its been a while. SNI offered me a 19 days refresher, and im wishing I would have took it now, though that offer is still on the table. However, I dont have time to be running around to orientation across the country, while my bank account is suffering. I seriously drove that truck better than I thought I would after being out of one for 9 years. I did nothing unsafe, no curb jumping the trailer wheels, nothing major that would fail you on a CDL driving test. In fact, I did better on that test, than what I did on my real CDL test. Even more funny is, when I drove for Swift the first time, I tested to upgrade and get my own truck. This last test I did better than I did on that test back in 2008. LMAO, I dont want to say its the tester, because that doesnt mean nothing now, and nothing will change the outcome. I just need guidance cause obviously my comeback seems a little more challenging now.

 

Thanks China Town will look into those first thing!!!!
