The buzz I heard in May is of our 2200 drivers, they'd lost close to 800 of them. That's company and lease ops. In theory, we're down at least a...
There's always been the knowledge that people from the company read the boards. I think most people know it coming in, or figure it out pretty...
That would make our jobs too easy! I just love babysitting someone else's problem, don't you? Nothing like losing an entire day to a trailer that...
No. And I strongly recommend you do a full year before you decide if you want to get in any deeper with any company (not just Swiftral) by leasing.
It doesn't rain that much in Portland. Maybe twice a week, once for 2 days and the other for 4. :biggrin_25525: That actually sounds like a nice...
I suspect it did too. I have the feeling they were always gunning to take over Central, they just waited until the time was right.
No, not that COO. Isaacson
Heard something interesting today, from a reputable source. Looks like out COO might be leaving. Makes me wonder if they're going to replace him,...
That would be an on the job injury, you can report it to worker's comp, although now that it's been a few days, they'll probably complain.
I had that happen in Texas, went form sunny day to raining like a cow peeing on a flat rock, and everyone just stopped. Middle of the highway. I...
I deal with that infrequently. Or, I get to a dry load, or a load where the bill box is missing (and the driver's tucked the bills in the...
My girlfriend delivers to a frozen consignee pretty regularly, and they know her there. The guy behind the desk was telling her that Swift drivers...
I've been meaning to check in, just been busy. Work nights, sleep days, wake up, do it all over again.
I don't understand why chaining isn't required. At Central, it wasn't required for a while, in theory the trainer was supposed to show the...
Same thing happened to the girlfriend and I. We started out on a truck together, and she had to get off (dislocated ankle). I stayed with our...
I have doubles/triples, have since before I went to work for Central. I had Hazmat for 5 years, but I gave it up this past fall because we never...
We have separate trucks. We stopped teaming when we went local. So each of us had to have a qualcomm installed. I was in the shop once more to fix...
I seriously doubt they're having the shops install black boxes. Given the amount of trouble they had installing a new qualcomm in my truck and my...
OS&D are gone as of March 31, we'll have to deal exclusively with Swift. I know that Central's Intermodal department is going over to customer...
It's also not just drivers, but the computer work getting screwed up or neglected (big surprise). I had a load tonight to deliver. I went to the...
