I just spoke to Bob in training and he said that he can make this all go away, take off the video requirement, the letter. . . . All of it. I told him that it is too far gone and the rollout of a new system with no training for the trainers, for the drivers, minimal training for the DM's is a formula for failure and he agreed. They are losing trainers and lease drivers (me included) like crazy. As someone said earlier, there are between 40-50 trucks sitting in the Central terminals all over the country as people pull their stuff out and hand in the keys. I have 2 years left on my lease and don't even care about them chasing me for the money, they will never see a penny. I have nothing left in my maintenance account, but they still have about 2,000 from my bond that I will never see so I will call it even and just say buh bye.
I have been in management positions prior to driving and see this rollout as one of the most poorly done that I have ever seen. What a joke.

So, from the previous thread, I finally got paid. They dropped the ball and forgot to pay me, so it was paid out yesterday. No direct deposit, so I did it on my comdata, and messaged my boss to say I was finally paid. Then I get told that somehow payroll screwed up even though they said it would be okay, and we didn't get paid correctly. Talked to a couple other locals, and at least one didn't get paid correctly.
Now I'm starting to wonder if it's a payroll screw up, or if it's our boss. -
Arkansas Frost and mje Thank this.

Of course we then get to our drop and pick... Mac 5&6 ... Done ... Even got them right (this time) ... Mac 1 done ... Cool ... Mac 2?? Nope... Didn't recognize the trailer we picked. Our DM is working on it now... We are rolling, and she is searching for vin#s... Right now I'm really glad I don't have her job!!mje Thanks this. -
I can only surmise one of two scenarios. #1. The very upper management of Swift has no idea what a debacle this whole thing has been. Maybe middle-management has told them to go work on their golf and tennis games because everything is fantastic...Or...#2. For some ungodly reason we can't fathom, this has all been intentional. Either way, $225 million was laid out by Jerry Moyes and at the rate things are moving, it could all be lost. Isn't somebody, somewhere saying, "Woops"?
