thinking about starting with swift

look look, You ment no insult I ment no insult in the previous post, Im simply saying I think it depends on the drivers attitude when they first start with the company. for example, If you go in with a bad attitude, your going to observe the tinyest bad detail about the training or other things that might just make you quit within the first month if that, if you go in with a good/positive attitude, you will overlook some of the bad things and once you get your own truck, things might even out and work for ya, Now i know im a newbie but im comming into the industry with personal goals and a very positive attitude just so I can make a decent living and support my future fiancee' finacialy in this economy. jtrnr951 I ment no insult and I welcome any tips anyone is willing to give but what I really dont want to hear is horror stories, I want to hear the firm facts that can be proved about company's and even veteren opinions. I have heard that swift is a good way to go to start off and get expeirence under the belt, but also might be the company you might stick with for many years to come if you make your connections right. I just wont believe the bad things said about the company /'s unless I expeirence it my self first "I guess thats just how I am"

 

*soon to be driver I hope

 

well, I have read other posts about which truck to choose with swift and the main 2 are volvo and international but what I want to know is which vehicle has the better standard sleeper.. for example, does one have more/better features then the other and so on, give me your opinions! I was looking at the international I just want to see what other drivers say.

 

Again, "If people have time to write on these forums about there "bad" expeirences with companies, they should spend that time correcting their problems with the company in which they are employed."
I DO NOT want to hear horror stories there is enough on this forum to choose from. I understand that you maybe a veteren in trucking but I dont judge anything untill I expeirence it myself, I appriciate the heads up but thats how I am.

I realize that I may not have the chance to choose a truck when the time comes however would like to know for the future what to choose from if the opratunity comes by.

 

To add on to my previous post, from what I been told from veterens, If you utilize your tools correctly, you can avoid having a bad expeirence with company's. Like knowing who to call to solve problem and situations or who to call for help. Hence the reason to take notes while in training and on the job so you can look back on them for reference.

 

3.14 I see your point and it adds up to the current economy situation. So, if that is to occur, I would just go with the flow and look for another company to go to while still working with the company you want to leave.
