These days any job is better than nothing. Get your experience with Swift and then go someplace respectable. Learn what you can and stay safe.
Probably not nice to accuse somebody of "BS" when you weren't there. It's possible it wasn't, and it's possible that it was and was just missed....
I've heard that before with other drivers. They've done the right thing and aren't told what to do to get a truck, or in a case like this, they...

I'm no fan of Swift....kinda liked Charles Manson better and have more respect for him...but I do have to say that my2girls is either not telling...

Many companies turned their trucks down. Many drivers (o/o mainly) figured out how to get the best MPG their truck could do. Now that fuel is...
