Djuan Yvette Holland - CDL Driver Reviews

The person submitted an application, we bought him a ticket, and then he disappeared. He seemed reasonable during conversations, but in reality, he's not someone worth dealing with!

We gave this driver many chances to prove himself as a driver.  He boasted about being a hard runner, couldn't wake up in the morning.  Later we found out that he is a gamer.  Plays video games in his truck on his off hours, which is fine.  It only becomes an issue when he couldn't get up in the morning to make deliveries.  Sleeper time for most drivers average 10-11hrs, Mr. Boyd is 15hrs.  When he has to drive early he make mistakes, one such mistake turning into a customer's driveway (left turn), turned so wide that he hooked the guideline on the electrical pole that was in the grass.  No property damage to the customer, plenty of damage to his truck.  Next incident was him pulling into a facility just to turn around and wasn't paying close enough attention and the trailer struck the gate upon entry (left turn).  Company paid for new gate and concert post.  He is not reliable or re-hirable. 

Low energy, low motivation, communication skills are lacking and once he goes home doesn't answer the phone for weeks.  Worked for 3wks, went home stayed there for weeks without answering the phone.  Finally got back on the road - went home after another 3wks, same thing.  Worked a total of 45 days out of 100 while employed.  We had to beg him to bring our equipment back, offered to pay him and tried to barter with us on a deadhead trip from Columbus, MS to Chicago area.  At least is wasn't a recovery but will not be entertain this driver in the future.  

This driver was with our company twice, the first time he "claimed" to have a pre-existing back condition that needed surgery.  He told us this while he was at home in Houston, TX.  Truck was at home for over a week, got towed and we had to recover while in the hospital for financial reasons (storage fees).  We re-hired him the following month, he worked for another 4mos.  He was terminated and is not longer welcome at this company.  He was terminated while in Houston, TX and we again had to recover his truck.

This driver abandoned Truck/Trailer in AL (at his home), never called to quit, never returned calls or texts from dispatch.  Company had to recover truck/trailer.  He worked for the company for nearly three years, is not re-hirable.

This driver has communication (or lack of) issues.  He "needs to get back to work ASAP" so we push to get all his pre-employment reports and documentation ready for him than he disappears for 5 weeks.  Then we receive another "reapply" notification via Tenstreet for Mr. Brasher.  Make contact and copies and pastes the same text messages about needing to get back to work.  Trying to get him scheduled for a drug screen is impossible because "my ole lady's car might leave me stranded on the side of the road" excuse.  In the middle of these messages it stops for hours (3+), then an apology text returns with "I fell asleep" which was from 11am to 2:30pm.  We are in need of drivers but not that desperate!  If communicate is this bad during the hiring process, we can't fathom what it will be while attempting to contact while a broker is desperate for answers.  He is a hard pass! 

Driver Feedback:
Worked less than three weeks.
Did not return after home time (no show).
No communication after going home.
Difficult to obtain paperwork; inconsistent with sending necessary documents.
Struggled with technology, including issues using the ELD (Electronic Logging Device).

Completely crazy driver. Came to our office on our expenses saying that he likes everything. When came to us, started to neglect everything, demanded changes in contract and equipment, saying that the policy has to be changed because I am a driver. After that started to threaten everyone in the office and Yard.  Would NOT recommend anyone this driver. 

Please be careful hiring this driver. He had us send him to do a drug test. We spent all day doing orientation, assigning the truck. We pre loaded a load for his first load out and he never showed up. No call no show. Wasted our time and money.
