My experience has been troublesome. One of his employees put a ad on facebook for material and hauling, which is how I found them. I was able to communicate through texting for 2-3 days in which I thought I was going to be getting some loads that day. But instead I got you need to talk to my boss. So I called the boss. My 1st conversation with the boss sounded great. The material price was great, the delivery pricing was great, and the owner sounded real friendly and enthusiastic over the phone. I attempted to get some delivery dates and times from him on the phone. Well he was busy, so I texted him that when he gets a chance to give me some days and times.
After that 1st conversation however, everything we talked about went down hill. Like the owner was off in his own little world. I attempted to not send alot of text, because usually they are on the machine and just ignore them. I was told Friday. Well nothing. So I asked if they would do some loads on the weekend, so I could keep pushing on my own job? He said he would ask the driver and came down to it needed to be a FEW LOADS and asked me what time would be good. Later that same night, he cancelled and said the driver had a emergency of some sort. I asked if I should look for another driver as a back up for Monday. Said we will be good Monday. Well he NEVER gave me a time for monday. I got up at 7:20am texted him to confirm loads. No response. Then I called him to confirm and he said YES. So I drive 40 minutes with cash in hand. Called him to confirm a time for ETA. He just hung up on me. I waited 2 hrs out there. Nothing, so then I tried to text and call. He was reading the text, but purposely not replying. Then when I called him, he accidently picked up and then hung up. Then stopped answering my calls by sending me right to voice mail.
I dont know what his problem was/is. But he has very poor communication skills/ memory/ multi asking/ and interest in doing business with other people. Its like everything after the 1st conversation, became HE DIDNT CARE for whatever reason. Couldnt even get 1 load and I really wanted this to work with him. read more
