Don't feel badly about this. Trucking is not for everyone. We're fond of saying that its a lifestyle, not a career, and there's a lot of truth in that. Many folks like to attribute the high driver turnover rate at training carriers to the supposed inherent poor nature of said large-lettered carrier. Quite a bit of the churn is attributable to the feelings you're having right now. OTOH, not all carriers are Swift, and while this one may not fit there are others may suit you much better.
So some thoughts for you. While irregular route OTR may not be your bag, there are plenty of driving jobs that are more local or regional in nature, allowing one to infest their own bed on a more or less regular schedule. Before you give Swift th' ol' heave ho, you may want to begin investigating the requirements for these jobs... if that appeals to you. Having a year of experience can sometimes work more to your benefit than 6 months in landing such a situation. Many carriers do have minimum experience requirements due to their agreements with with their insurance providers.
Good luck.
Well stated...
I'm glad you got your scripts refilled.
