Drove 40 miles to work with no problems, went to go home started truck and it ran for a few seconds and shut off. Went to restart and engine turns over but won't start

If it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If you have spark everywhere, check fuel pressure.

Can you check for applicable trouble codes? At the least, you need an obd2 code reader to check codes. Your local autostore should have one.

How long since a tune-up? What is engine litre size?
