162 hours invested in training with Swift... I can't deal anymore.. Help?!

I think as one driver has suggested talk to safety, Is it an O/O or company driver ? I am sure they would like to know their truck is trashed. maybe or maybe not LOL

 

They don't care. Your just a driver number and not a very big one. Even if your problem is legitimate,(and I think it is) they don't care. Your just a number on a computer screen to them, that's it.

YOU need to find a way to make it work for 80 more hours, whatever it takes.

Kill the cat.

 

Unfortunately just one more in a long list of reasons no to sign on with a driver mill. 15 minutes reading in this forum to save a lot of new drivers a whole lot of grief.

 

Your not being rude at all... yep, I have a cat who resides in a rather spacious home all wood floors, and pretty darn clean. This guy has cat litter on the floor, in the carpets, and even apologized for his bed smelling of cat urine. I wish I could post a pic of the inside of the truck.

After all the time I have invested, I shall stick it out, I have enough meds to last. Thanks for all your advise peeps!
Now all we need is to get back on the road... going on 48hrs at this fine truck stop.

 

Hey there Gizmo Man! I will not let ya down, even if I need to get an oxygen tank...lol

 

Don't think he's supposed to have pets when training. You can get off the truck if you call the right person.

 

Post a pic of the truck!

I have no clue how some of you do stuff like this. Being in a truck with a stranger for weeks in my idea of a total nightmare. Good luck and hope you finish it out!

 

post the pictures,plural,and use them as documentation regarding your claim.if it is a company truck,surely a higher up will work w/you.posting the pictures will also help future wannabes.

glad you will be sticking it out and I sincerely hope trucking is a great fit for you.I can not recommend it to people that ask me as it has changed so much.In fact I advise against entering it in general.reads as if the things may be headed in the right direction for you-

 

Take pics even if you don't use them to turn him in. I still look back on pics I took during training and when I went solo. Nice to look back at all the stuff you been through and what it took to get you there. 80 hours might seem like a lot but once you start counting them down it won't be so bad.

 

I know you can do it. If you have gotten this far then you are on the downhill side. I look forward to more posts after you have your own truck. Good luck to you.
