Key people: Terrence Baker, Crystal Pittman.

Took some temporary runs for this company for about 2 weeks in January/February 2018.

The company is run by some real idiots. These people truly don't have a clue about trucking. Ranks in my top 2 for companies run by morons, for my entire 24 year career.

Equipment is rented from Penske. Truck was an automatic, and it was pretty obvious it had been used pretty hard. Trailer was straight junk, and I probably should have rejected it. I told the company one round trip, and you need to get another trailer. Came into Chicago area to return bad trailer. Spent almost the whole day going to 3 Penske locations to find a useable trailer. The one I took barely qualified.

I go to Florida on a load. Deliver that, and agree to a load going to Rhode Island. This was a load for TQL. This is where everything starts to collapse. I knew this would be the final run before I headed back to Indiana to return the equipment. I had no idea how bad it was going to get.

Told them I would need fuel in a few hundred miles. Made it to a truckstop in South Carolina. Had to sit for 3 hours waiting on them to send me fuel money. My pay was also late that day. Terrence claimed he forgot because he was coaching little league. Seriously. Then he sent me $400 for fuel, not anywhere near enough to fill the truck. Or make it to the delivery. Warned him about this repeatedly. The delivery had to be rescheduled for the next day because he couldn't send fuel money.

Finally made it to Montgomery, N.Y.. Had to stop because I was past the fuel warning. Told Terrence I couldn't go any further,. About 9:30 in the morning I get a message from him saying I would get fuel money shortly. Never did. After that I didn't hear from Terrence, and I couldn't get hold of him. Neither could the broker. Late in the day I finally had to tell the broker at TQL the truth. The supervisor said he was calling the police, and starting their hijacked load procedure. Apparently they advanced the company $1250 specifically for fuel, and Terrence used it for something else. That was enough for me. Sent Terrence a warning that he better sort it out very quickly, or I would leave the load on a secure lot and drive the tractor back to Indiana at my own expense. Still wasn't able to contact him. Got a message from the broker supervisor that the police had been called. Told him exactly where the load was, that it was safe, and that I'm leaving. He thanked me for my cooperation. Returned the truck to a Penske lot in Indiana.

The moral of the story is that Wolf Pack Trucking II LLC is a two bit company run by hustlers, Terrence Baker is a cowardly liar and possibly a thief, and his flunky Crystal Pittman backs him up.

Everything I have said here I can back up with undeniable evidence. I'm not just blowing smoke.

 

You live and learn. Just don't want anyone else to repeat my mistake. Those guys are still out there.

 

No. Company didn't have that option for whatever reason. There are other issues I didn't explain. Didn't want to get long winded. Just wanted to make my point.

The Penske truck I got was a bit rough, but it was enough for a couple weeks. The trailers I was offered were straight junk. 2 of them didn't belong on the road. If they had any standards they wouldn't try rent that crap out. The people at South Bend didn't seem to get that you need a current federal inspection and a registration to pull a trailer. Not too bright. I will not be touching any more Penske equipment personally.

 

Yeah. The guy is not a very good ########### either. I was just playing along hoping I could hang in long enough to escape clean. Not to be.
