    Hiii, me again. How long have you been with Venezia? Have you said what your opinion is of them? I’m rethinking a company I was going to go with.

    I'm going on month #3. So far I really have no complaints. Everyone has treated me very well and I can just do my job and be left alone. The equipment is up to date, mechanics are knowledgeable, dispatch is organized, and the pay is definitely the best I've seen for this type of work

    This stuff still runs in the winter, but I'd like to learn LPG just in case

    No, to a place that makes road tar, roof pitch and creosote. I haul creosote out of there to various lumber mills with the occasional RT haul

    Around October 2019 shouldve listened to me two years before that but they had to find out the hard way.

    So I'm now 5 months in! Things have been going very well and I definitely would recommend this company to others. Pay has been consistent, taking home around 14-1,500 a week, the work is easy, the customers are friendly, the shipper and workers are very friendly (I've showed up 7 hours early and they loaded me with no issues), unless I have a specific appointment time, I basically make my own schedule, and they leave you the heck alone in the office. So far the only phone call I got was from billing because I was submitting my paperwork in the wrong order. Other than that I only get calls when I get dispatched.

    Unfortunately, the chemical plant I haul out of and into recently caught fire and work has slowed down significantly with no timeframe as to when they'll be back up and running fully. Even so, they have kept me busy hauling oils. I hope to work here for years to come!
