 When I'm working up there, that's his seat, a trainer's seat. Maybe I should go sit in it now when he turns around and looks. Now I'm the trainer. So since Marmaduke is so much longer than the other ones, he's gotta rest it on the trailer there and bring his clamps closer to the butt end so that he can set it down. It's a tricky thing. It's a tricky thing. There's so many controls up there. I'll probably be able to show you more tomorrow. Tomorrow we're actually gonna be using an actual highway trailer for it that we use on the highway. It's just my trainer getting everything into position for me. He's requested not to be on camera, just so you know, that's why I'm not showing him. Everybody's got their own choice. If they don't want to be on camera, they don't have to be on camera, but he said I'm welcome to film what we're doing here. The head strap on, because he's sitting up here behind my water bottle. He sits up here. And tomorrow I'm hoping to put my head cam on and be able to operate this thing with a head cam, loading and unloading the pole so you can see it from my perspective. That'd be pretty cool. See now he's trying to get the butt end off the trailer there and onto the ground. It's a little tricky. The bigger the pole, the trickier it is. That's what I'm told. I'm seeing it first hand. My turn will be next. And he's probably gonna, he's probably doing it a lot faster than I will. We're in a bit of a tricky corner here too. So yeah, that's sort of like a little bit of a tidbit of what I've been doing all day. I've been trying to learn as much as I can and focus. Like I said, the trainer's totally welcome with me filming what we're doing here. He just doesn't wanna be on the film himself and that's perfectly fine with me. I'm just excited that I'm able to show you guys that this is pretty cool. We're actually being out there in the field. Being out there and picking up and delivering poles all over Manitoba Cross will go with these things. I won't be doing it full-time, but it's something I'll be doing part-time just to fill in for now. Anyways, I'll talk to you guys once I'm done work here. We're gonna play around with Norma Duke here for a while and I'd like to get a little bit done on our deck today yet. I'd like to have our deck done by the weekend. That's my goal. So I'm doing a little bit in the evenings after work. A little bit every day. Oh, I think he's almost got it. Just gotta push it out, push it out and then put it on the ground. That's gonna be fun to play around with. There we go, he's got it. That's a heavy pole. And we haul even bigger ones than that yet. That's just the biggest one we have here right now. Almost at 10,000 miles. And we're over 100 miles. That means it's time to fuel up on the way home. Killol from Future. So I wanted to end off this video and explain to you a little bit of what was going on today. This was the first day of training. So it's the first day. You never quite know what to expect. You never know what you're doing. So I can only talk to you when a trainer was up on the crane. We didn't get too much filming, but I got a bit of a sunburn. And tomorrow we train some more. And I'm able to show you a little bit more of my view of things from up on the crane. I think it turned out really well. I hope so anyways. But you know, as you're training, or after I'm done training and we're out in the field, picking up logs and stuff all over Manitoba, it's gonna be pretty cool to show you guys what we do. So anyway, oh, I've gotten more progress on my deck and I don't wanna show you yet because that's coming in future videos. So you see I wanna hook you in so that you come back. If you haven't already, hit the subscribe button. We make new videos pretty much every day and I'm doing something different most days. And today we're learning how to use a pole picker or a boom truck or a knuckle boom or a crane or whatever you wanna call it. The thingy with the claws, we'll just call it the claw. How about that? I like that better. Slop claw. So I'm looking here at the progress in the deck and I'm not gonna show you, but I'm happy with it. It's turning out really well. And it looks like I'm on schedule to get it finished when I want to. I just gotta build the step yet on the driveway side. That'll come later, whenever. But yeah, thanks for watching today and hanging out. I appreciate all of you guys that have been here through the years. I really do a little update on my mom and she is still improving. She's doing really well, considering everything. And you know, I don't wanna speak too soon, but I think at this point we can say she's gonna make it. She's gonna recover. It's gonna be a long recovery and a difficult one, but she's not in the ICU anymore. I wanna give a shout out to the nurses and the doctors that were working on her there and give you a special thank you. Turns out that a few of the nurses that were helping my mom in saving her life actually watched this channel. What are the chances of that, right? That a nurse watches a trucking channel. But hey, I'm glad you're here anyways. If you're watching this, I wanna give you a personal thank you directly to you. You know who you are. You recognize my mom, I guess, when she was in there, maybe from the video when I said she was going to the ICU. There's no words that I can say to express to you how grateful I am. You saved my mom and I have no words that can say thank you enough. And to the doctors that were there too, we appreciate you and you are true heroes in what you do. So now she's been moved out of the ICU. She's now recovering. She's been transferred closer to us nearby. And every day she keeps getting stronger and stronger. And it's, thank you to all of you for sending your prayers and positive thoughts her way. They help more than you think. All around things look to be going good. So I'll leave you guys with that tidbit of good news. Hopefully your days are good. And don't forget to subscribe, hit that like button and I'll see you tomorrow. We're gonna do some more training tomorrow if I'm excited to show you. Actually, I got the footage on my computer over there and I'm actually pretty excited to go through it.
