    I came here to get the truck inspected and to take a couple days home time to be with my girls.

    Got done with home time and went to get my truck, and they were still not finished with it. They found a couple things wrong, so I went back on the list.

    That was Tuesday, and I'm still here. It did finally get in the shop this morning, so at least it is being worked on.

    Well, that's 2 days after 2 days home time. So the truck has been here for 4.

    Jackmann, Swift has been fine so far. No real problems, I have a good DM and a decent truck.

    Oh four days, roger that. Little long but when you're home and out of sight it seems your truck will go out of mind for the shop.

    Well, it'll be 5 days now.

    A job that should have taken around 5 hours turned into 16, because the person working on the truck had very little experience doing that job.

    Then when it was finally assigned to a night shift guy, he found a broken clamp on the turbo housing. They didn't have the part and the Volvo dealer is closed, so I am now at Super 8 for the night.
    Hopefully, only one night.

    Murphy strikes again. :biggrin_25512:
