I'l keep this short and sweet, but while driving down I-5 in California, a rock came off a vehicle and grazed the bottom side of my driver mirror. Now the mirror is plastic and like I said it grazed the mount. When I say grazed, it essentially svratched the mirror. Should I report it to my company, or just Sharpie the mount to make it unnoticeable? I dont want to have to worry about doing paperwork and all that jazz, for something so minor.
Mirror damage?

Just tell them, call your safety department and have them note it.

Ok, will do.

I would not say a word about something that minor. Some outfits can make a mountain out of an anthill.

Sharpie.
Too much paperwork generated from a phone call.Woodys and austinmike Thank this. -

As a previous owner of a few trucks with drivers, I always appreciated a guy that was flat straight up. The straight up thing to do is to call it in and have it noted, no matter how small. I always looked at those drivers as keepers, and when there was a few extra bucks, they got it for doing what used to be the right thing. But, that is just me, and I have no clue who this guy works for.Lepton1, Bean Jr., tinytim and 1 other person Thank this.

How noticeable is it? Is it a small company or a mega outfit?

A scratch caused by a road hazard? No need for a report to your company.
Woodys, austinmike and Studebaker Hawk Thank this.
