This driver was hired for a ninety day probation period. During the first week, we had loads from Savannah to Jacksonville. He could not read a map, my company even offered to help him with directions, instead he ran over 500 miles off route. The first day of his second week, he was shut down by DOT for improper log book completion. This cost my company $177.00 for late freight. He the continued to run off route the second week. The driver fueled up on the Thursday of the second week, with no hauls that Friday. When the purchase receipt came in for that fill up, and us knowing he didn't have any runs, we became suspicious. Me and a mechanic drove to the drivers house to find the truck parked in his yard empty. His reason for the fuel missing was that it must have leaked out over night. The mechanic checked out the truck and did not find a leak. I fired the driver and took possession of the truck that day. This drive actually owes me $277.00 for late freight and fuel. This driver should feel fortunate the I do not file charges against him for theft by taking. This truck is owned by Glam-J trucking, not Supply Chain Management and Charles Williams. As a testimony to the drivers knowledge, he didn't even know who was driving for. Therefore, in conclusion, if you run across this driver, Mike Maddox, please be aware of the type of driver you are dealing with.
