After looking at some more pictures I think you guys are right. When I looked up wolf spider images on my phone at work they all looked different than that guy but a little bit ago I managed to find pictures of some that had the same color/pattern. I'm in Michigan so chances are there is some sort of water near the shop, but I haven't gone looking for it.
