    Stay away from this company they are the worst I have ever worked for. First thing is the so called lease purchase it's more of a you are making Ward Hendricksons truck payments for him because you will never get the truck.The maintenance fund is .10 a mile you are only allowed to use 500 at any one time anything over comes out of your pay check and if and when you leave you do NOT get any of it back. Ward changes the contract when ever it suits him and sends out amendments to it that you are told if you don't sign it then you will be out of a job. They will turn off your fuel card if you get called in to see Gary the logs and safety guy or Eddie in recruiting. The dispatchers for the most part are nothing more then a joke they can not do their jobs (the worst I have ever seen),load planning ummm that would require planning something unheard of at this place. I could go on and on but will sum this up, If you are looking for all the things they say the have and are look some place else because they are not anything like what they offer up in their adds. They should not be allowed to make such fraudulent adds.:biggrin_25510::biggrin_25510:

    The owner Ward is the biggest crook I have ever seen, fact, he changes the contents of the contract when ever he feels like it or he find that it is not beneficial to his pocket book, just this month he has started taking money out of pay checks ( without driver permission) called it a recovery escrow account for the "if a driver abandons the truck". Russel the **s kissing recruiter will lie to you about everything just to make the company look good,and yes he is a perv. STAY AWAY they will rip you off leave you stranded and broke but believe me they always get their money and then some first,:biggrin_25510: While you go hungry, face foreclosure,repo on your car,turn off notices,etc. They don't freaking care anything about you and your family.

    I remembered taking the exit ramp at the Corning exit one day. As I was making my way across the over pass, I heard a driver say over the CB radio, " Hendrickson, why...you ought know better..you SON OF B!"

    I looked in the mirror and realized that the Hendrickson truck behind me had floored across the stop sign without even making an attempt to stop almost causing a collision with another big truck. As we approached a four way stop sign intersection, the Hendrickson truck flies right by me mashing on the throttle running yet another set of stop signs deliberately. Fortunately, traffic was light on this day and no one got hurt.

    I asked myself, "what could cause a driver to behave in such a manner?" That was before I decided to drive for Hendrickson Trucking. I know better now.

    It's a sad, when one stops and thinks about it, there are so many companies out there that are just as bad as Hendrickson. If drivers would come together and take a legal stand against them,make them not only pay back what they steal from us but put a stop to their ways then the industry would become a better one but not to many are willing to do it.
