Lol.

Thanks for letting us see the other side of Swift, Awesome things going on!!! Great interview !!

Hello @mutha trucker, this is @qracabelo all of your videos it’s getting better and better, great job, I am 40 years old and I have being driving trucks since when I was a child, and did long distance for 14 years all over South America and all over North America, and I hauled a lot kind of loads like, oversized load, my primary job now is a tanker, and etc, I never went to a trucking school, I got my CDL license 19 years ago, but my family and friends started to teach me everything about trucking when I was a teenager, when a career it’s on demand and a company have a lot equipment seating down on they yard they are losing money, that moment a lot companies start to lose control of the situation and start to qualify candidates without training them well, I never worked for big corporations in my life, but on the road as a trucker we hear a lot, and most the time it’s not from a trustable resource, and on the truck industry there is a lot lies coming from every direction, I trained a lot new drivers for the last 10 years, and all of them told me when they got they first CDL job driving a 18 wheeler, without experience the company they worked for did not trained them well, and in a days gave to them a responsibilities of a professional, while they had no clue about trucking industry, so fresh from the trucking school, and they is a saying on the road if the wheels is no turning the truck its not earning, which make a desperate trucking company hire who ever knock on they door! And there is only few KZfaqrs that brings a good content without criticism and lies about trucking industry, good job on your channel @mutha trucker.

Can we say, "Filibustering".. Talk talk talk. Half hour and only got one question out. CEO Dude actually said, "Lets move on🤨".

25:54 'hey let's move on'... shut up let me control the narrative. - Swift CEO. Great job at the interview, Alex 👍👍

❤️🙏

It’s a smoke show. I want videos of alllllll the stuff they hide or is said and discussed behind closed doors. There’s tons of it. Let’s rig up hidden microphones and cameras. Then you’ll have some real data and info.

​@Mutha Trucker - Official Trucking Channel -out of all people the head cheese at Swift.this interview was grand and to hear it from the top people what their about is great

You just don’t know the plot.

@@lilbfrom094princeton8 I like what they had to say about their motive to invest in some driver assist technology. What I don’t like about the technology as a whole is it takes away from skill sharpening and also away from situational awareness. It’s scary to see how they take ignorant people practically out of homeless shelters. 2 weeks later they are driving a rig. No mechanical knowledge and just enough knowledge and practice to get themselves in trouble. How can they do a pre-trip when they don’t even know what the hell they are looking at. Other than the few pages in the book they read in school.

Yeah wait till you constantly get cut off by ungoverned trucks constantly and the tailgating that goes on constantly…. You will find 90 percent of truck drivers rarely follow any safe practices like following distance speeding or anything for that matter… Hell some don’t even use turn signals 🤦‍♂️

@ PREPPERTRUCKER57 sounds like you should be a DOT officer bud. Have a great life.

@@adanbadillo7171 I probably would be a pretty good one as I was taught road safety long before I became a truck driver 👍

If You Out Of Atlanta You Better Leave😢

If you work for swift nothing you say has any weight.

I agree. That's what I try to explain to people.

Different is I believe you have 2 terminals where Knight has 20+ not all have the same things at each. But when you add in the Swift, Bar nun and Abilene terminals which any of there drivers have access to there is 50+ terminals. So pretty your never more than a few hundred miles from terminal or less if you add in all the secure yards

Appreciate you

I know Swift gets a lot of Flak about Accidents. As All Trucking Companies on Accident Claims to Quantity of Trucks / Drivers. There’s the Pie Chart. The % of Accidents, and % of No Accidents. Good Part There’s Good Drivers but They’re Not The One Thought About when There’s an Accident. ( Good Drivers can Be involved in Accidents ) It’s a Constant Learning Job. We all Have to Start Somewhere.

Appreciate you

Great Job Alex it's very nice to know about these Companies.. I Trust Knights Company

I will!!!

Same here. Got my start with them.

My son would want me to go with Swift, just because of the blue truck! I was tempted when I first started, but also a bit scared. Now, I have a local job with union benefits.

@@joshuabrown1314 when your ready your ready. I could never go back union or not.

@@grobison9696 you're talkin local or swifty?

@@joshuabrown1314 no I'm regional flatbed now.

Awesome!!! Great to see you

Appreciate you!!!!!

Those doctors should be disbarred from they’re position

I've watched this video and all I can say is SMFH. And I agree with your comment.

I have to disagree. Of the almost 3yrs I was with Knight they failed to get me home on time twice. Other than that they had me home on time or a day early and I ran the entire U.S.

I don't have any complaints, really with Swift. I'm grateful for the opportunity to gain the experience I need to elevate to the next level/ chapter of my career...6-7K/ month is not bad for a new driver....

@@cocomareaux7382 6-7k a month 😅. No time to enjoy it unless you're high

@@cocomareaux7382 do you live in the truck? out of that month are you working 30+l days minus your 34hr restarts ?

@@cocomareaux7382 not bad at all. You’ve the right idea, use this time to gain all the knowledge and experience you can and it will definitely pay off down the road.

@@theglitch99 I run off of straight recap...NO 34's.... I'm out here for ONE REASON, for a specific period of time(1 year). I am on a mission and being a "company driver" is NOT the goal.....I go home when I NEED to....I go home probably every 30-40 days and stay a week. Handle what needs to be handled and get back to the mission. It is really simple when you KNOW what you WANT to DO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.

Agreed

Yeah and since alex channel is growing they are trying to find the most beneficial way to use him, since he alway provides us with informative info. The game has changed so they will change like the chameleons they are.

Well ya that's the main goal for any company and people as well.

And helping people get there two years in so they can go to other companies 😂😂

y’all should give them a break, imagine being new and dispatch is pushing you. they don’t take it easy on them

Appreciate you!!!

BULLSHIT what is this cope? I am so confused at how everyone is ignoring how they ignored WHY are they on the news. This company is shit. They're not better.

Lets go!!!!

❤️🙏

And look at swift worrying about other companies.

Yeah u work for them. Or u use to.

@@Allergic2BeingBrokeNope I just have common sense and I don’t laugh at the shit everyone else does because it’s fun. I actually do research and talk to people. Never worked for a mega carrier either lol I know you can’t say the same.

@@Allergic2BeingBroke if you actually took the time too research you would see for yourself but a lot of you are overweight lazy slobs with nothing else better to do lmao

Always fed ex blocking I 80 or I 70 in winter through Colorado and Wyoming respectively. Those dudes are forced dispatched hauling doubles in shit weather. Sounds like a shit company to work for.

@@nicholaslittlefield4424 they make their own dumb choices.

Yup, my favorite terminal so far is the one in Salt Lake City.

@@johnbaron3070 I haven't make it out there yet.

I ask the questions and they respond in part 2

thank you

How is their equipment? They always seem to have a lot of newer tractors

@@theTrend7 the truck I got now is a 2018 freight liner. I haven’t had any issues with it and it seems like they trade off the trucks right around 500k miles. I’m currently at around 430k on it and they said i would be getting a new one soon maybe a few months. So yea they like to keep the equipment pretty new. And they bring the trucks in for PMs every 50k miles. They could do a full detail on the inside of the trucks before they give them to a different driver though that would be a plus mine was a mess when I got it but I ended up cleaning up the inside myself on downtime

I worked there like 4 months ago in the Laredo terminal of swift and it was a very good company it’s on the driver and had a 2023 freight liner cascadia they have new goodequipment

Instead of bitchin ...why dont you go back to that factory job that paid more?

I gotta ask ... how are you working 6 days 12 hours a day and out 5 and home 2 ? Im not great at math ..but im not that bad at it either ...

you got that right

@ @ MrVios11 - I can testify to the Avenel, NJ drop yard still being in unsatisfactory condition. It is way overdue for upgrades, showers, more restrooms etc.... possibly expand the lot & redesign the parking etc... It's only fair to the drivers. As for the other terminals with the exception of Martinsburg, WVa & Lewiston, ID they are upgraded, renovated.

@Barry Johnson yea I've seen the lots have just enough room for parking equipment if every parked perfectly. And theirs always a handful of people who park crooked and then ruin the day for the next guy.

You don't want to take a shower with jersey water.

its a drop yard, not a real terminal.

I did. Will be on tomorrow's video

❤️🙏

😅😅

If they did he would be one of their mentors and he should be mentoring their mentors the head mentor

Lmfao .. my training has been goimg on for 40 plus years never had cdl school ... but im not a big fan of tbe product they produce ... i never set out to be a truck driver .. or owner op...it just sorta happend ..like getting married or drunk or cancer .. lol could be poor planning and time manadgement on my part ... ..

@62guitarguy if you cant run a twin stck brownie then you aint a driver ! .. tucson to tucumcarri ¡tehachapie to tona pah ... ..ive driven evey kibda rig thats ever been made ! Driven the back roads so i wouldnt get weighed ... and if ya give me .... weed ...whites ...and wine ...and show me a sign ....i be willin ...

Most schools don't have manuals anymore. I definitely want to learn but haven't had the opportunity

Dang 10 months??! I went to a similar tech college and it was only 10 WEEKS M-Thu 8 hours long. What material was all covered when you went through??

@@rachelk2897 your local tech college will more than likely have cdl training and 9/10 have manual trucks.

It's just the stereotypes, but sadly I cannot agree at all, I've seen swift and knight drivers doing quite "lot" of surprising maneuvers.

@@MrBlackcat1990 I understand. From my perspective it was just an observation. There are some truck drivers in my family and I understand their need to get somewhere. I was reacting to their leaderships comments in the video. I know that most of the big companies monitor all that stuff now. Not for care of the employees so much as protecting the bottom line.

I think so

Yea it’s pretty sad they had this on paper since they invited him on it’s the best advertisement in my eyes and truly the best marketing team I wish he would’ve accepted some money he even rubs it in and reminds how no one was paid

Swift is totally cool with destroying thousands of lives

Next time your wife makes brownies for you. Be sure to check the ingredients she's using 🤣🤣

@@junicohen7918 have you worked for them if not. You are just following what others are saying.

That hair test wasn't wrong ! That hair sample is usually given by some government agencies like F B I ,C I A, etc... There are 3 test to check you from urine to blood to hair . Drugs leave your urine in days, but it takes longer to leave your bloodstream depending on the type of drug and amount you were consuming however the hair test can sometimes detect drugs as much as 40 years ago ! Remember hair grows from right above your brain and the brain of anything or anyone will tell on it !

@@LawrenceHanson2 🧐🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

Part 2 coming soon. I ask the question

There's a part 2 coming soon

Its a video op, of course they’re going to be transparent and open to make themselves look good. 🤦‍♂️🤡

Agree

🤡

That’s BS. A million mile driver will not have trouble finding work. Besides you don’t quit a job before you secure another one.

@Aaron Roberts call it want you want. I disagree

Well ya it's a business and they have a high position in the company so of course they'll be making a lot of money. And drivers with a million safe miles don't have any issues finding driving work

@@ratherbeflying101 disagree with what?

@Aaron Roberts I've said what I have to say. You have fun over there chief.

Okay! Down

Ya he's a bitch that's why.

Disrespectful

I was thinking during that part of the interview that Alex should have just said "just call me Alex " .

Because he’s a smug narcissistic asshole

@@5boysandamom Alex has too much pride, and rightfully so, for his Mutha Trucka brand. He was representing all of us, and that's why he didn't want to be called Alex. The bitch ass CEO proceeded to mock him and his audience. Because like you mentioned, he's a narcissistic asshole. All those guys at the top are. I worked for Swift, and went through their school, and I can say firsthand, Swift is a terrible company to work for as a company driver. Only mentors get treated with extra care. All drivers are basically a number and will be treated like dog water if you ever question your DMs or dispatchers. It made me sick to my stomach how a bunch of non experienced drivers were able to sit around in front of their computers all day, going home every night, dictating the course of a driver's paycheck based on how much ass you kiss to your DM and dispatches, and they are allowed to do that because they have so many drivers. The company I work for now pays much better, provides long miles at all times, and was built from the ground up by actual truck drivers. They are wholesome people and will do anything for their drivers. The company owner even spoke to us in orientation, and he said "Out of all our employees, YOU, the truck driver, are the only ones that actually make us REVENUE, so you deserve all the praise and respect from everyone in this company because without you, this company would not run." He was absolutely right, and that made us new drivers excited to be a part of the Freymiller family. Anyways, sorry for my rant, but F SWIFT!

haha so that's the acronym for SWIFT eh?

Yeah!!! Screwed up but learning. 2 things here that are true. I need to lose weight and make sure that if I'm wearing a sweater and sitting down I need to clip my mic lower.
