Just because I work for Swift doesn't mean I can't train someone. I can agree that some people who work for my company are complete nincompoops,...
I train because I enjoy doing it and for the money. I can't say I don't do it for the money because that would be a lie. Now with that in mind, I...

Swift has reefers for Costco in the Washington DC area also. Dedicated account but terrible pay and traffic. Russ
The reason Swift trucks are slow is to save money. If we can't pass anyone, we don't have to pay to paint and letter the right side of the...

To any Swift potentials reading this post. DO NOT -I repeat- DO NOT have ANYTHING to drink at the hotels Swift is paying for. PERIOD. This is a...
Driving from Frendly, WV to Wheeling to pick up I70. Sunny day and I've got 72K gross. I had picked up aluminum ingots from Friendly and was...
Way to go Nana! As a fellow Swiftie, I'd like to welcome you to this slightly dysfunctional group of mailbox-knocker-overers. I know you'll do...
Glad to hear things are going well. I'm headed out of Florida tomorrow for Tennessee. Another thing not to forget is loggin your fuel stops. Swift...
I think in my retirement (With Swift, it's only 135 years away! lol) i'm going to open my own truck stop. *Free Wifi *Free coffee *15 minute pull...
There is absolutely no reason to hook up air lines before backing under any trailer built after 1975 (Which is most of 'em). If the spring brakes...
