    Well... I am most pleased to say I am thrilled with mentor 4! Life would have been so much easier if I got this guy in the 1st place.
    4 more days and I should be finishing up in CA ...and making my way back to MA!

    I can ask him if he would let me send you his contact info. I know he has a student coming on the truck today for weeks..then he should be free. Let me know if you want me to talk to him.

    It would be helpful, and I know it would be very lucky to be able to coordinate it, but I will have a car and i can drive to meet him and if i have to wait for a few days to get someone who will teach me the business well... I am all for it...

    Thanks!

    Does anyone know if logs at Swift are done electronically? How about the GPS system? Will it get you from A to B with no problem? As a student with CDL with only 2 months experience on the road driving, I am coming into swift with minimal experience. Will my mentor take this into consideration or will he use this against me.

    I am a woman driver. How will I be treated at Swift? Thanks for any help.

    Trenchcoat + revolver. Reenact the movie "Vigilante" w/ Charles Bronson. You'll be less scared and community will be safer. It's a win/win.
