<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Muleskinner, post: 388291, member: 14530&quot;]I think you are very right about the union shops being ONE of the last strongholds(not that there are not millions of courteous,respectful and proffesional nonunion drivers out there,me being one of them.lol).I think the reason that is is because they are WAY more selective about who they hire.Swift and there ilk couldn&#039;t care less about respectfull,clean,courteous,knowledgable drivers...they just want a warm body.And since the bigger companies combined have the majority of the drivers on the road,we ALL get lumped into that same herd in an unknowing public&#039;s eye.It&#039;s a sad situation for those of us left who remember the old ways and miss the days when respect for each other was the first rule of the road.Most of these weasels out there now are flipping burgers one day and a couple of weeks later they are behind the wheel of a class 8 truck.Most have no background in it nor desire to do it other than the promise of big pay by a lying recruiter.And to boil it all down and at the risk of sounding rude,all you have to do is go read the thousands of posts on this site by these guys who are to stupid to read all the sad stories about these big companies crushing folks dreams.They(greenhorns) still come on here with the same questions and comments over and over...&quot;Is Swift a good company&quot;...I don&#039;t know,read the ten thousand posts from people who&#039;ve lost everything from dealing with them then figure it out....&quot;I&#039;m leaving for Swifts cdl mill today,wish me luck&quot;....yeah,you&#039;ll NEED it buddy....If these folks are not smart enough to figure it out by now with this site up to inform you by drivers opinions and stories then IMHO they are probably to stupid to drive out on the road with any semblance of safety or respect.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies-vb/roundies/biggrin_25518.gif" class="mceSmilie" alt=":biggrin_25518:" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
