Slip seat vs assigned tractors.

We have the not writing anything up problem too but then again the assigned tractors ate worse. We have a truck that has had a headlight out for a week, I'm not saying anything because I want to see how long it takes the driver to say something....non pre tripping idiot right there.

 

We are the exact opposite. The single screws are slip seat and the tandems are assigned. I smoke and there is one of them that smells like smoke so bad it's hard to breathe in. Dude must smoke two packs a day with the windows closed. They are also the I guess least pre tripped would be the best way to say it, all kinds of lights out and mirrors flopping all over the place. I'm not sure why, that's stuff that only takes a few minutes to fix. I brought writing them up at night for repair but kinda got a stay in your lane speech.

 

It's my job to baby them and make sure that they are hooked up to the correct trailer so they don't have to find it in the morning.

 

I have what I call my janitor key ring, every tractor in the yard. You would be surprised how many trucks are keyed the same. I have like six Freightliner keys but one key starts all but two of them and that same key works in a lot of the internationals also.
