    I gave it a good shot, but I'm done with long haul. Swift treated me well, we had our problems but that is life. I just can't be away from home like that anymore, I thought I could handle it, but reality just kicked in and made it to hard. I found a couple Local jobs. Looks like I will be driving for Texoma Freight. Mostly short intown stuff, every so often a run and back. I have a good foot in the door on a great job paying more then I have ever made in my life, really praying that job comes threw.

    I wish everyone good luck and safe travels. My hat is off to all of you sacraficing so much doing a job that must be done.

    You got that CDL and it always comes in handy. It doesn't mean you have to drive OTR. Good Luck! Things will work out good! :)

    Good deal! I hope I get a local job soon. It looks like regional is what I am going to try at Swift for a while.
