I just completed school and getting into the industry. I’ve hoped on board with swift and the experience so far hasn’t been thrilling. I can see that communication is very bad and it can take hours or even days to get a response from someone. I had one of the worst experiences of my life with my first mentor and had to ask to go home. My mentor was driving like a lunatic through the smoking mountains and got pulled over by DOT and asked me TO SWAP SEATS during the traffic stop. His reasoning was that he was driving on “my logs”. I don’t know why that matters or why he was doing that. He was going to straight up dump his shit on me. I had to speak up and tell the cop I wasn’t driving. What a piece of shit. I’m still just blown away at how much of a bitch my mentor was. Is there anyone good working at swift? Should I give another mentor a shot? What is a good started trucking company any of y’all recommend?
