Good evening from Laredo….again!

Dear virtual truckers, please give me the patience to NOT kill something!  My first day as real TRUCK DRIVER never happened.  Thank you Vern and Stan for the constant drilling of the pre-trip inspection as my truck failed.  I was doing my leak down test (for the air brakes) and the warning light did come on at 60 PSI but the tractor protection valve (parking brake) did not pop out at 40 PSI but slowly moved out at 0 PSI.  Then, while waiting for that to get fixed, I tried to enter my information on the truck computer and it is not working.  Needless to say, the rust bucket is in the shop for the night.
Maybe we will become truckers tomorrow……good night!
