Going back to SWIFT. Round 2

Yup good or bad I dont know

 

At the American Inn in Kansas Ciy start orientation tomarro.

 

Well orientation went well got snowed in at edwardsville. Friday had to jump the gray dog to get some licence issues sorted now sitting in St Louis waiting on my mentor to call. So far so good.

 

Now everything is good to go. Headed back to Edwardsville. The Mentor they said that was going to pick me up never called. So going to the terminal to get one. No worries tho. Had a couple days to spend with family and help get them unpacked in the new house.

 

Sorry for not updating not had much time on the road. Was kept running hard. I enjoyed it, had a awesome mentor. Learned a lot and got along great. went coast to coast litererally. the only hitch to the whole mentor training process didn't even deal with the mentor. Edwardsville truck assignment................ I know I am starting again and I knew I wouldn't get a shiney perfect truck but ####. I told them I need a team truck and my DM gives me the folder to a 10 international prostar. I go inspect it and there was not a piece of body work that wasn't dented, had holes, or trashed. the interior was even worse.(swift shold be embarrassed to put that truck back on the road.) second truck 09 Volvo 500,000 miles. Remember I asked for a team truck and this on is single bunk mid-rise.......... so I inspect it the exterior is in good shape for a '09 normal fiberglass stress..... The interior OMG this was a cigar smoking fool. Had to get to the detail shop. I told my (new to me) DM It was a fairly good truck but it was a midrise single bunk I needed a team truck he told me "SO" and gave a me the look of why do I care,. Long story a little shorter is I took the 09 midrise gonna get to a different terminal after home time to get a team truck and my team driver. continue in a bit
