Just make sure the trainer doesn't sleep while you drive and drive while you sleep! That's what mine did, and I could have learned alot more, and been better suited when I got out on my own. They AREN'T supposed to do that. Don't be afraid to ask A.N.Y.T.H.I.N.G!!!!!! I ALWAYS insisted on doing all backing I could. We had a good time too, but he sure could have tought me more. Hell, the first couple months I was out, I was in Newark, Nj and messed up a right turn and bumped the building/bar right there on the corner. LOL(shoulda took a left)
i would love to know about hear workwell program. i have been driven a taxi for the past 6 years. i strart with swift in two weeks. thank you wanttabe
Work Well physical. what is it all about. the only reason i ask becuase i am out of shape. been driven taxi for 6 years time for a change.
The work well program in lifting and carying weights. I'll try to find a list of what they do. Hopefully someone else will paste it here fisrt.
for work well go to forum Report good truck company Thread - Swift training academy. about the third post on the first page explains work well.
Bill, Was confirmed for Aug. 4th They were going to have me bus from Boston. PHHHT! I am renting a car from Manchester, NH one-way. Manchester is 15 minutes from here. I will visit a couple of buds on the way out. Any changes since last post? Brent
No nothing yet. Derry isn't far from Worcester, can't you get a bus from there? Got to can Tamela and see if any cancellations.
I can't stomach the thought of getting on a bus. I got a duffle bag, computer etc.. I will get there on my schedule, not there's. They deal with Greyhound exclusive...make things a hassle. Tamala said about 25 to start the class and attrition will whittle it down to 18-20. Who knows? Maybe I won't pass this wellness assessment and open up a slot for you.
Just talked to Tamela. What they are really looking for is HAZMAT teams. They will send as team drivers when training is done.
