    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    The last company I worked for thought that was true as well.

    Driving a Ford 550 I was put out of service for no medical card 20 miles from home.

    The company sent another driver the next morning so He did not get payed overtime .

    Since I was put out of service at 1500 I was then off the clock as well.

    Unless things changed since the great Lock Downs

    Trailer light issues today, maintenance can't fix it. So I have to wait for a rental trailer for next week.
    Always something with this old wore out equipment.

    Next time you see DOT, give them the finger. They will then give your employer a list of what needs to be properly repaired. It’s a free service that they provide. :thumbsup:

    Oh and if you’ve worked a long day after 12 hours they give out free coffee at those little drive thru coffee shacks.

    Can`t fix a light problem does that translate to being to lazy?

    The quality of the help or both?

    I think all of that applies. If they can't just change a part it goes in for service. This require actually having to trace the wire to see where the break is.

    I have marker lights just no left turn signal and a marker at the to front of the trailer is gone, probably courtesy of a tree branch.

    Wife got me this charcoal/wood grill. I mostly use propane (and propane accessories) but I do occasionally like to dabble in wood/charcoal.
