    Why do you think you have a “right” to another trainer? Not saying it wasn’t a raw deal. But employment is not a right.

    Where is your location; state & nearest city?
    From this day forward, don't disclose anything about your medical history.
    Some bullies will see your disorders as something to exploit to make them feel powerful over you.
    You have a cdl, so there's companies that will hire you. Let us know where you are.
    Many of us choose trucking because we don't like much personal interaction with others. That's not abnormal or a disorder.
    I think you'll do just fine as a solo driver.

    You may be a good fit for dry van. Not as much interaction with people that can get on your nerves like us old reefer drivers have to deal with.
    Doug Andrus Distributing has dry van division and hires new cdl grads.

    Says 18 minutes from bus station, not side of the road.

    Can kick a trainee out any safe place. gas station, rest area, hotel, whatever. You don't want to get out, the police will take you out.

    I would have dropped her at bus station if that's where she wanted out, no skin off mine. But I wasn't involved in the screaming match. She did something to set trainer off.

    Sounds like a bad deal on Swifts part, but then again Swift is know as SWIFT (Serious Wipeout In Freightliner Trucks) I reccomend going somewhere else.

    Would you mind posting up that video footage you say you have? It might actually give a better idea to just exactly what's going on.

    In my opinion, you're committing career suicide if you choose to follow through with Swift and stat with them just to have a job. The place has a company hearse for christ sakes. Get away from that place! 20190618_132855.jpg

    I would love to hear Swift’s side of the story. I bet it’s a good one.
