    Good and valid point and advice.

    Listened at the chambers. Can't hear the leak that area. Sound more in the bundle of hoses along the frame under the sleeper area.

    Crawled under and looked but didn't see anything. Horn starts going off if you open the door with the brakes released. So won't check with air on near other people that are sleeping.

    Not my truck so won't invest the money in chambers and tools. More cost effective to grab my go bag, buy a ride home, and get another gig. Zero commitment to this job/employer. Just hanging out for the last recruitment bonus check.

    That honking because you open the door is such BS... Cant even properly pre-trip or find leaks without attracting attention. Id be unhooking the #### horn.

    Now well past the 3 hour mark. Still NTF. Time to pull up the map and find something to do besides play solitaire and annoy you folks.

    My phone just decided to go off with an ear piercing scream to tell me “You are in a Tornado Watch!! Take shelter immediately!!
    Mobile homers take shelter now!!”

    I just pulled my curtains, that counts right?
    Windows are already up and doors are locked.

    You guys need to try this, if you haven’t already. Eggplant sliced and covered with Italian bread crumbs, fried in olive oil. Put it on your favorite spaghetti meal, with a slice of favorite cheese, It’s delicious.
