The old saying goes.... No service? No customers.
An acquaintance of mine flew for Swift and had NOTHING good to say about the operation. He was a 767 Captain and basically reiterated what you said; you're on your own. Little if any support from the company, on the road a lot and the working conditions were poor.

I've known two Supplemental "lifers" who said they would work in a grocery store before they even applied at Swift.

Anyone even considering working there should ask a LOT of questions and do a LOT of homework.
