Thomas Wood Dudley - CDL Driver Reviews

Thomas Wood had worked for my company many years ago for the previous owners and contacted me earlier this month looking for a job. All I heard was how he helped start the company 20 years ago.. and he was begging for a job as his co-driver needed experience and they could not find someone to let him train her. Ok, that was 20 years ago, new ownership now, so I gave him and his fiancee a chace. 1st day in the truck he was already complaining bc I hadnt sent rate confirmation just yet- I was busy and working on 17 other drivers as well. It was sent shortly after that. He knew coming on that we run all over and he called after his 2nd load that was from OH to VA about how he didnt like driving mountains and wanted to run southeast only. I explained again how we run. He was always in the background running his mouth when I was talking to his codriver on the phone. 2800 miles in a week as a team, and 2 loads rescheduled due to being behind at their own fault, 3 cancelled loads that we had to recover the truck due to being late. Deadheaded truck from GA-NC and then got mad that he was charged for fuel cost and cussed me out while on the phone with his codriver stating he was going to have me shut down, cussing me and telling me I was a POS that didnt know what I was doing and he was going to call DOT

First he started as lease to purchase owner operator. He broke down the truck that was purchasing and we gave him a chains to work as a company driver. He was always complaining asking for company to loan him money and so on.After we refuse to give for him what he wanted he just came back in the yard and left the truck without any two weeks notice and also stolen the company tablet!!!! BE AWARE!!!
