Swift apparently didn't pay any of their employees this Friday. Causing uproar.

Your not wrong sadly and sometimes i feel like i waste my time trying, but ill still try because im an idiot i guess. Grabted sure this COULD be the death kneel of swift. But there have been absolutely none of the traditional warning signs to this point. So id bet its one of those annoying things that happen sometimes. I mean hell one time as a teen, the walmart i worked for managed to #### up so badly everyone in the store didnt get paid for 2 weeks. Only reason they even had employees at the end of it was some of us couldnt find a new job fast enough.

 

simmer down people... swift's not going anywhere lol.

 

Probably comparing apples to oranges but you never know.

We all know Swift does not make mistakes, so it is on the other end.
And even if it was a Swift mistake, they will fix it.

It is a funny coincidence with the timing of the big stock market scare this past week.

 

the way i see it is that a computer glitch happened.

however, should it happen again..??

make sure you have a credit card in your wallet, and a way to the nearest airport.

when an employer i once worked for, called me in mid-route, that i was taken off my route, in favor of another driver.??

i told dispatch.........."fine, i'll park the truck and find a way home, and YOU can find your dang equipment"

wanna see how fast i was NOT removed from my route..???

i took no BS from ANY employer, parking that rig was so easy to do.

jobs are still out there, think about yourself, before you think about the employer.

 

THE SKY IS FALLING!
THE SKY IS FALLING!
SKWAAAAKK!!!!!!!

 

NAH, i never worked for Swifty. But i see you pulled the plug at 48 years, congrates on that, i pulled it at 49 last year. Did not want to see the 50 year mark. ha ha ha . You gotta love being retired, best thing in the world. I dont know what happened to Swifty. Hope they get there act together. No Doubt, no pay, no work.

 

I remember years ago, a buddy went to work one day, and a HUGE FREAKIN chain on the gate, no warning, no notice. And the worse part
And i dont know how he NEVER checked it, but the company did`nt put in for his Pension. I dont know how he couldnt check something like that. But he took them to court, and got $300 a month for life. I really felt for the guy. that hurts. But you have to check on a regular basis. I did it by the book, and the payoff was outstanding, allong with my Social Security. He said they paid on a regular basis, health insurance. Still dont understand it.

 

I`d be willling to bet a Merge transition, tangle up. Wait till the dust settles

 

That's a little unfair to say. We don't know anybody's situation.
