SWIFT TRANSPORTATION DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER PHOENIX Arizona
I'VE BEEN DRIVING OFF AND ON SINCE 1994. OVER 1MILLION MILES EASY. WAS A TRAINER AT SWIFT FOR 8 OUT OF 9 MONTHS AND IT WENT O.K. AT BEST UNTIL X-MAS TIME. IN DEC 07' I WAS IN CA. TRYING TO GET MY STUDENT AND I HOME FOR X-MAS AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE A LOAD TO THE NORTHEAST AND THAT THERE WAS NO OTHER OPTION. I WAS LEFT WITH NO CHOICE SO I TOOK MY STUDENT TO HIS PHOENIX TERMINAL AND I CONTINUED ON TO MY TERMINAL IN EL PASO TX. TO TURN THE TRUCK IN AND GO HOME. THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO TAKE THE LOAD TO THE NORTHEAST EVEN THOUGH I WAS A WESTERN REGIONAL DRIVER. I TOLD THEM I WOULD NOT TAKE IT AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD SEE TO IT THAT I WOULD NEVER GET ANOTHER TRUCKING JOB AGAIN. THEY SENT ME A TERMINATION LETTER STATING THAT I ABANDONED THEIR EQUIPMENT AND LOAD WHICH IS FAR FROM THE TRUTH AS I LEFT THE TRUCK AND LOAD IN THE SECURE TERMINAL. I TRIED TO TALK TO THE POWERS TO BE IN CHARGE IN PHOENIX WITH NO SUCCESS. I ONLY GOT VOICEMAILS AND THEY NEVER RETURNED MY CALLS. THEY SEEMED TO FORGET ALL ABOUT THE 9 MONTHS OF GOOD SERVICE I GAVE THEM WITH NO TICKETS, ACCIDENTS, OR LATES. I'VE WORKED FOR SEVERAL COMPANIES AND ALL ARE POSITIVE REFERALS. I HAVEN'T CHECKED MY DAC YET BUT I'M PRETTY SURE THEY'VE SCREWED IT UP FOR ME. I JUST FOUND THIS SITE AND IF ANYONE READING CAN HELP ME I'M ALL EARS. I'M LOOKING INTO LEGAL ACTION AND I'M VERY WILLING TO JOIN IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST SWIFT TRANSPORTATION FOR DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER ETC... LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR FEEDBACK AND REPLIES. SORRY SO LONG BUT DRIVERS NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON IN THESE BIG COMPANIES THAT THINK THAT THEY CAN JUST SLAM ALL OF US GOOD TRUCK DRIVERS. PEACE!

Sun, August 10, 2008
I was terminated due to a fraudulant letter supposedly sent by me about another employee. I was then asked to report to a drvr man. in the Lathrop term and asked about the letter not knowing it was also to ask me for a drug screen due to association with the employee. I was humilated and asked what my personal knowledge and business with said employee was. I told them I hadnt done anything and was terminated due to a refusal to screen. Now unemployed and basically finding that they are using my employee id with maintaining the trk I turned in and charging to me. Basically I have requested help in acquiring the mystery letter so that I can pursue the person/s that sent it originally thus causing my termination. I feel defaced as well as humiliated by Swift. i don't know what or if any actions can be taken against Swift but will discuss with my attorney. Just needed to add to your report. L
