    Thank you. It's been two weeks and I've already put 4,700 miles past me. Seems I came back with a vengeance.

    i will agree.. swift is the best company i ever worked for if they wasnt so strict on logs.. made 850 a week, off weekends and stayed at house 2 or three nights during the weekk.. would not have ever left if they didnt start suspending me for logs (lol) but oh well life goes on.. Would recomend this comapny to the rookies... alot of dedicated accounts.sure were slow tho

    I know that when I was running refers I would sometimes nose in if the spot was between two dry vans and the #### refer was going to be running all night. Saves the dirty looks from some in the TS. :biggrin_25525:

    Your DM does make a adiffrence. Try to be on his goodside by not getting into any backing accidents. i have been with them for almost 2 years and can say they do their best. i think they get in their own way sometime.
