Absolute nightmare! Never picks up the phone , cancels loads without notifying dispatch, doesn't send POD's, swears at dispatchers and acts like a little kid. Works 3 days then goes home to Alaska get's drunk and starts harrasing dispatchers. Stole all of our equipment. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Drove for a few month got puller over for speeding , lost permit book . Siting one 1k miles load a week . Asked for a load home to FL . Then Fuck you and come pick up your truck . Would not recommend. Very lazy , always late like he is down or something. He just doesn't care about truck trailer load broker . No FFF given . Good luck with him
He came to us looking for a job. He got approved and did the drug test which he passed and then stopped texting and calling. Waisted our time and the companies time and money
Bipolar person. Can be very nice in the office and real headache while on the road. Got upset, because couldn't find delivery address, brought truck back to the yard and quit. Just got lucky delivery was 5 miles from terminal. Not thousands miles away. Be careful with this driver.
Were driving with his brother as a team, and got loaded in WA load to NY. They went to SALT LAKE CITY with a team load, stopped in the middle of street, and abandoned the truck, it was filthy and nasty, attaching some pictures:
Thomas Austin worked for us 2 months and he was terminated because he has a horrible temper and attitude.
He got in an argument with a TA employee and broke the driver side window during the argument.
He damaged a trailer and shifted a load due to negligence
He returned the equipment with multiple damages.
It was very hard to work with him, because he was driving 1000 miles for 3-4 days and he was late for deliveries multiple times
The driver left the financed truck and didn't deliver the last load. Left truck with damages on it. He is irresponsible and says that he knows how trucking works. but over all, he knows shit about it. I don't recommend hire him. if you want more information call me 224 842 3194
When we recovered the truck, the truck was a mess. The truck was in very bad condition inside and out. More than $4K in damages. He definitely uses drugs, STAY AWAY FROM HIM!
This driver was employed as a company driver. Our maintenance department had problems with him arranging regular PMs, poor communicating skills with dispatch. He had unauthorized use of fuel over 1000$ weekly and lastly kept our equipment hostage, we needed to involve towing services to reposes our equpment back. Please stay away from this driver!!!
I decided to give him a chance under SAP program. It was a big mistake. He was waiting for a load and after 3 hours he abandoned the load and he said " find coverage for it i need to go home " . My customer was very upset on late Friday afternoon. Don't waist your time with this guy
Stay away from this driver and his wife who he applied with to run a team, Driver canceled his drug test that was scheduled then refused to complete an observed drug test, went inside one of our trucks, made a mess, also threatened our employees, just not stable individual and can only bring trouble to you and your company I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS DRIVER TO ANYONE
driver works good when staying out on the road but has drinking issues
can be home for 10 15 days and not respond for days , not reliable , out of a year missed - no show 7-10 times on many loads as well as when it was time to return back to work no call no show.
Do not trust him, operated CMV while under the influence of an intoxicating beverage regardless of its alcohol content.He had possession of alcohol while operating CMV.
WE PURCHASED FLY TICKET FOR HIM, THEN SEND HIM CASH MONEY, PAID FOR HIS HOTEL, THEN HE ASKED FOR CASH AGAIN WE REFUSED TO SEND HIM,HE SAID HE WILL NOT WORK FOR US WE WAISTED $550 FOR THIS GUY
This driver was nice all over the process of hiring. Our maintenance team helped the driver to move his belongings in the truck while doing the regular check of the truck, trailer and the cabin of the truck. While doing this, there was a strong smell of cannabis and while helping the driver to move his belongings in the truck a small plastic packaging with cannabis fell out of one of his plastic bags.
Irresponsible, abandoned truck that was towed. Left the trailer on the other location. Always full of ideas that work directly against the company. Drove some loads with our truck and different MC.
This so called "driver" is a real character, she will seems real sweet in the beginning but after her real side will comes out. She is a regular drug user and talks erratic to everyone and will make excuses on why she needs to go home. We had to recover our truck from CA where she went out on a binger we assume from her past drug use history. I wouldn't recommend this drug addict to my worst enemy. SO HIRE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
DO WASTE YOUR TIME HIRING THIS DRIVER, HE IS AN OWNER OPERATOR AND THINKS HE CAN DO WHATEVER HE WANT, HE STOLE OUR TRAILER AND HIDE IT SOMEWHERE AROUND HIS NEIGHBORHOOD, UNPLUGGED THE GPS ON IT SO WE CAN'T TRACK IT BLOCKED EVERYONES PHONE NUMBER NO UPDATES FROM THIS GUY
The worst driver ever, I forgot to read the reviews on here before hiring him. This guy is a racist and a crazy person. Horrible driver on top of it. He was fired right away!
