The start of my first year with Swift.

MrH, does Swift pay for Layover when you are actually on a load? If that is the case, I have been missing out on a bunch of those 500-mile loads with 5-days until the delivery appointment..."Can't deliver early!"

 

I don't think so, but I'm going to try my best to get something for my time. The load was late, no fault of my own and the CSR rescheduled for 5 days later. I requested to have the load tcalled at the terminal and got no where with that. I've done everything I could to make this work for everyone, now I think SWIFT should step up to the plate.

 

Do you get pulled into the weigh stations for the inspections or do you stop in, go in and volunteer for the inspection? I know it's a real new-b question but my Mentor was utterly useless in training. I wouldn't mind adding some "negatives" to my score. Thanks!

 

You can go in and request an inspection, some people actually do that on a regular bases for a CVSA sticker, however, I've been called in all of those times.

 

Copy that....thanks!

 

You need a lot more than 4 points to get terminated from Swift though. They consider 36-42 a very high risk, maybe even dismissable at that point. I got a 2 point dock once, with the 4x amplification for first offense...bringing my risk score to 8 points. He must have a lot more points to be so close to termination.

 

Where is this Corinne?
