Work amounted to driving to the office to turn in my paperwork from yesterdays trips. I had told them yesterday that I could be available Thursday and or Friday but they didn't mention anything, and I didn't ask again.

I had a few reasons to go to the office, drop my paperwork, find my phone and check the truck. Phone was right on the seat, but I had to get the keys from the office to get in. And last night I realized I had not checked the backup alarm on the truck and that was why it was in the shop that I picked it up from. So today I started the truck and checked the alarm. It does work once the parking break is released and you are moving. Good news.

Bad news ... now the check engine light is on.

Boss was just getting to work so I talked to him in the parking lot. Various topics. Two being driving electric buses and what is going on in AL. He hasn't paid any attention because he has plenty of work as is. He thinks the reason he isn't getting many buses out of Crookston is because they are working on electric buses which the flatbed.

I also let dispatch know about the check engine light. But didn't stick around to see if they wanted it to go to a shop. Other than that we watched the load board for our OTR company.

By the end of the day there are no RV's. But there are four trash trucks that are within my range. Those are not my first choice so we'll wait until Saturday AM or Monday to commit to those. We'd wait until Monday if that dispatch was a little more on top of it ... or they don't work Saturday.
