    Hey TT how's it going? I saw that sticky note on my mirror a few days ago.. hope you and yours had happy holidays too, we did.. I've never heard anything bad about M&W they seem like a pretty decent regional outfit.. They've got sleeper trucks and lots of daycabs running around middle TN and southern KY... I think I even saw one of their daycabs in IN once.. Have you ever looked into Venture Express? There's several drivers around our area that work for them.. They've got lots of daycabs doing Nissan but I don;t know how easy/difficult that would be to crack into. I know somebody who know's somebody working there running regional in a sleeper truck and they like it.. If you ever ride across Keith Springs Mtn once you get to the top there is a Venture daycab parked at one of those houses on the right all the time.. Reliable Carriers out of Manchester is another good one. One of my best friends works there driving regional he gets good home time and likes it, they've got a lot of dedicated daycab work too..

    M&W seems like pretty decent outfit but dont know 1st hand. they do have pretty good looking trks and trls. but as far as Venture goes i do know 1st hand. all trks stay parked at a yard, pay 2yrs ago was .30cpm, and even though you have a trk and all your belongings in it dont mean its yours. they will slip seat a road trk or in my case give it to another driver and leave your stuff in a box on the shop floor while your on x-mas break. kinda ###### to a guy that runs 3500 a week.

    Wow, they didn't tell you that up front before hiring? I worked for Nationwide Express for many years,they did not slip seat but,if they were in a pinch and your tractor was on the yard while you were off on vacation sometimes the local driver would use it. I didn't care for it but nothing ever got missing or bothered with and it never got trashed.

    Yeah I looked at Venture too, they don't pay worth a darn wanted to start me at .30 cpm on Nissan with 21 years experience, After looking I think I'll stay where I am and after having breakfast with the boss this weekend, some things are in the works that are going to be even better.I was just curious. I think I'll stay here until I buy a truck, and get back into the o/o game again. May talk to you about where you are leased.

    Here we are many years later. Venture? I know a couple of drivers that went there. They didn't stay very long.
