    That sounds like a drunk talking.

    "but they told him that they can't cuase he wasn't running his logs wrong"
    So if you run your logs wrong it is OK?

    "it is impossible to keep your logs wright on that account."
    Aside from the spelling, it is NEVER impossible to keep your log correct.
    All you have to do is log it as you do it.


    Maybe you should focus a bit more on the message?

    Syracuse is a great terminal to work out of the road test is not hard unless you get bill he's the only one in that terminal that sends people home and that's only if you can't shift. Good look you won't have to worry about the road test.

    Are you given the option of choosing a dedicated account or can you refuse to go on a dedicated account if that is all that is offered?. Those Family Dollar type accounts don't sound good at all and I was just wondering if someone just starting with the company was put on that account could they refuse it or would that lead to being fired?.

    I only left prime and conway due too personal reasons. I am considering going back too one of them. Conway now XPO is willing too take me back. Im sure prime would take me back also, I only had left prime in November. I keep reading more bad things about swift. I think prime would pay me more cpm then swift also, yet it is only reefer.

    Usually road tests at these rookie/beginner companies are to make sure you can follow directions and obey traffic signs, lights etc. They will help you out if you have forgotten how to do something and are watching to see if you can listen and use common sense.

    Can someone tell me how is the swift written test? Is it easy or hard? Multiple choice or write in? How many questions?
