    Day 2 in the books. Everything went good with orientation.. But....the truck is throwing a code. Made a few calls and they said don't run it because it won't regen with the code active. So it's off to Clarke Detroit tomorrow. Guess that's trucking I might get out here Friday

    So they won't pass it with the code or you mean personally you need to get it fixed. Or both. My truck has a code but it's meaningless

    I have a general elog question for everyone on them. Is there any personal conveyance. Like if I'm at home off duty. Or your unloaded and receiver says. No parking after keeping there all day

    Bam if your home log out the system and if they ask just say pc time. By law your not allowed to use pc from a customer if they don't allow parking. But ask log department as it's one of those weird area's in the book.

    I'll be in Louisville Friday picking up heading to the great NY. Couldn't turn down the rate going in plus no tarp is even sweeter. I think my dispatcher misunderstood me when I said I don't mind tarping not that I love tarping...... Lol ( looks at self in the mirror to explain these first 6 loads all tarp, To bad I can't fire myself) honestly they've been easy rectangular loads so it's not that bad.

    The AC bug bit me last night. Looks like I'll be needing a new compressor since it won't spin or take any freon. Hopefully I'll have time to get it done in Louisville. This heat sucks
