 Search for my key where I put them yesterday because I took the motorcycle in so I don't take all my keys Then I don't take all my janitor keys, right? So yesterday I'd gotten home, and I guess I was just so excited to be at home. I just put the keys down In a spot where they don't usually go I have a few spots where I usually put my keys like subconsciously if I just put them down somewhere and forget them Usually I can just check these spots and you know one of them That's probably where I put it. They're supposed to be hanging in their spot, but I know me However, this time I Put the keys down in a completely unusual spot where I've never put them before Took me half an hour to find them sitting right there in plain sight. So we're on the way for a coffee Going up too long again today. Not for me today when I'm filming this. It's Friday And this weekend we have some plans What are we doing tomorrow? Tomorrow's Saturday. So tomorrow we're going into Winnipeg Britt, this guy just put his vehicle in park in front of me What are you doing? Making me nervous. I just saw his backup lights flicker on Usually that's when you put the vehicle in a park or drive and then you put it back in drive just now Okay, you're going forward not backwards. Okay, that's all that matters I think yeah, I think Britt has a hair appointment tomorrow her hair did And I got a few other things done while we're there We've got some friends coming over for a bonfire in the evening Who knows what we'll get up to it's a big day and then Sunday we have no plans yet Sunday We're thinking we might go back up to birds hill and Do another hike. There's a whole bunch of trails just like the chickadee trail we did the other week That one was about four kilometers long We want to go on a bit of a longer one now They have a whole bunch of them there. So we might pick a longer trail and go on a nice nice weekend hike I don't know. What do you have planned for the weekend? Let me know down below. Got any big plans for the weekend? Well, I want I want all day breakfast Well, I'd like the morning breakfast. Thank you Uh, there's a spinach feta and cage-free egg white wrap No, thank you. That sounds Well, that actually sounds pretty good. I don't know why they got to put cage-free egg Like who puts their eggs in cages? I don't know Double smoked bacon and cheddar. That sounds pretty good bacon and Grigory wager Soobin egg bites. I have no idea what you're trying to tell me starbucks. I don't know what that is Sour dough grilled cheese. Oh, that sounds maybe I'll try that sour dough. You think the dough is sour? How do they call it sour dough? It doesn't sound good, but I'm gonna try it Could I get a uh, a sour dough grilled cheese? And a large coffee with two cream No, that's it Man got a frog in my throat right when I started talking there. Who sounded like I was dying for a second So if any of you thought of this as well, I'm just wondering am I the only one that thinks that starbucks is missing out on a massive marketing opportunity by offering Starbucks as a reward like, you know five starbucks gets you this or that is equal to a an actual buck You know three bucks for a coffee or You can spend three starbucks or maybe maybe make their currency worth a little more say one starbucks gets you a coffee or something one starbucks Or did they do that already? Usually if I think I came up with a really good Really good idea I got to remember that it's 2021 and any good idea that comes into my head Someone else has already thought of and probably already marketed It's hard to come up with original ideas these days, but uh, that's why when you see something original you're like, wow Like look at movies for for instance All the movies being made all they are remakes of old movies. There's no Not a lot of new ideas out there But I guess yeah, there is still some but there's a lot of remakes and a lot of I don't know. I I think that they're missing an opportunity Buy a coffee get a starbucks or something You can use those starbucks to buy other starbucks like actual starbucks stuff. You get what I mean, though You give it out like little currency like canadian tire money But then again, it's nothing new canadian tires already been doing that But it would be cool. I don't know I don't know. I'm new here. I'm new to starbucks. I don't listen to me. What do I know? You know, I used to think it was gross. What's happening to me? Okay, so this is a Vt pike place What does it even mean? I just ordered a large coffee Okay It did its job I am wired It's time to go do some trucking Let's grab a bag out of here Oh, yeah, we'll grab our trailer number 605 Yep We'll do some trucking It's a beautiful day It's a beautiful day for trucking and it's a beautiful day for a friday All right, we got our stuff. We got our bag. We got our pit stick always use pit stick Some of you need a reminder every now and then clean inside I think that there's not stuff all over the floor sometimes I Sometimes I go into those trailers and whoever had it before me leaves uh The gift of cleanup to me They're very generous people. I always love cleaning up their mess for them but no This trailer is uh in good shape I can't get between any of these trailers though. Holy smokes. Can we get through here? Yep, there we go. Come with me. Not like you have a choice All right, what's going on back here I guess I should have hooked up the lights first now. I gotta come back here again to check the lights I wanted to make sure everything was latched up here Trailer tires are up. Oh, but look at this. You see this I'm going to put that down and move that Ratched out of the way that ratchet shouldn't be so close to that tire. Remember we talked about that That was the last week Gotta make sure that uh those ratchets are far away from those lift tires This one here too. This one's not too far away, but this is here Yeah, this won't touch the tire though It's just from when you go over bridge connections right and the trailer suspension goes up and down Sometimes these tires touch the ground and they start spinning and if you have these ratchets right here When that happens you go over a bridge connection. This spins. It actually rips a chunk of tire out So in that case it's better to always have this thing down, but sometimes, you know You want to use it for its intended purpose and lift it save fuel or save money on tolls wherever you are Because tolls are usually charged by axle on the ground So this truck has one two three four five axles on the ground, but if we put this down That's another axle on the ground, which means an extra five dollar five fifty depending on which toll road you're on Sometimes you just want to save that money adds up after a while if you go through like, you know Five to ten different toll booths five bucks a shot That tire gets very expensive and you save quite a bit if you just have it off the ground, but you got to make sure That these things Aren't going to defeat the entire purpose And destroy your tire anyway, and you got to replace the tire right away No one likes replacing tires that don't need to be replaced Seems that all the smoke is cleared out of our Out of our atmosphere around here that rain this last week must have done Done a lot of good for the forest fires around here I know there's a lot more burning all around the world. It's kind of crazy You got to wonder like is there more forest fires happening now than there used to be Or are we just hearing about it more because now we have the internet and global instant media Because you know if there was fires in africa A hundred years ago you wouldn't hear about it until The news would literally travel by boat To our shores and then be spread from our shores inland most times you probably would never even have heard about it But now I mean if there's a fire in south africa boom, we hear about it that second Not months from now not weeks from now not even days from now that second we hear about it So there's fires in cyberia in africa in greece all across europe in the the amazon And of course in north america here in the us and we hear about them all at the same time So it seems like there's so many fires all burning at the same time. Whereas in the past we probably would have only Heard about our local situation You know, I'm wondering if that has a part to play in it. Like I'm not saying that's what's going on, but You know, there are people out there that are saying that they are increasing Or is the news just increasing. I don't know. I'm just a truck driver and a youtuber and a tiktoker now Ha ha. Oh, I made my first tiktok the other day. Did you guys see that? You can find me on tiktok. Uh, just the at symbol at tjv tiktok tjv tiktok You don't find me on tiktok. You can find my first my first tiktok I know it sucked me in It sucked me in. I thought it was so lame And then I watched one and then I watched another one then before I knew it I was hooked So I made one Guys, if you guys are into that, if not, I don't blame you be careful. Once you start it's hard to stop We'll see what today brings. Anyway, we got clear sky. Well, my clear sky is clear air Which has been really nice. It's supposed to be a really nice weekend and then more rain next week I'm on my way up too long. I gotta pick something up I'm gonna need to fuel up the truck There's a petrol pass right up here about a quarter tank and that last quarter drops way faster than the rest So it's probably less than quarter tanks already Fill it up today and show you're ready for monday It's just a little card lock With a lot of recycling owed back apparently. Wow At least they're recycling That's a big pile Where'd all that come from? The whole town drop it off here or what? They'd make some go-go juice Okay, we don't want marked diesel because that's for the farmers because the farmers get the special fuel Special cheap fuel Something about them, you know making food for us or something. I don't know. Okay Lovely, let's uh put ourselves on duty not driving. We're fueling Let the government know what I'm doing again. There's always some nosy All right So again, this is one of the card locks where you just sort of string it across I'm gonna start with this side and then do the other side next Pump five. Don't let me forget that pump five Enter pump number five Give me some juice. Come on use pump selective absolutely absolutely Oh, there comes the dump truck. Maybe he's gonna pick up all of that uh Recycling over there. I bet that's where he's headed Oh, oh, yep, or is he coming to get fuel? Whoa Apparently he wanted fuel He walked back over there to the garbage pile. I don't think he's gonna carry all those bags over here Good nose This truck smells like manure 769 liters Let's do some math. Here you guys ready for some math. I know you didn't expect that this morning when you clicked on this video What's the diesel at right now? About $1.20. $922 or so. Over $900 worth of fuel bought today. That's from this past week. Approximately, I think there's a little less. I don't remember the last time I fueled up. For the Americans, you guys in your funny measurements, 769 liters divided by 3.78, that would be 203.4 gallons. U.S. gallons. Not imperial gallons. Busy on this road. This is our terrible intersection here once again. Shouldn't be too bad, but it is Friday and it's quarter after five. There's gonna be a lot of traffic leaving the city, but most traffic's headed out to Falcon Lake, out west or north. Not a lot of traffic would be going down 59, I don't think, but we'll see. How long do you think we're gonna be sitting here? Waiting for all that traffic over there. I've got to get onto that lane there and go that way. Now, by the time I see the traffic up on top of this bridge here, it's too late. And now I can't go anyways until that lane is clear. So we'll just watch that way. But most of those cars are going down the south perimeter. You see that? That's a different road altogether. So I think we're clear. Oh, oh, oh, I'm gonna go for it. I'm gonna. Nope, that car's in this road. See, it's hard to tell. This car coming here. I thought it was on the other road over there going down the perimeter. Nope, it's on this one. I would have cut right in front of him if I would have gone. And now this car's coming from there. This car's coming from there. Guys, timing this? How long is this gonna take? All right, if there was an opening now, I could go now. I think I'm just gonna have to send it and just hope for the best. Got a long line up of cars behind me already. Sorry, guys. Nothing I can do about this. I'm not the one that signed off on this intersection. Okay, so after this pickup, I got quite a bit of big break there. Okay, now we need a break here on this direction. After these two cars. Yep, after these two cars, I'm gonna send it. Here we go. Here we go. Oh, it's gonna be tight. This is gonna be tight. Misty gear. Misty gear. That's not good. All right. Whoo. Oh, the guy behind me and royally cut off that car. Dude, why didn't you do that? Be just about got rear-ended by that car. Ah, that intersection is so dangerous. I really wish they would fix that already. I know it's expensive. I know what I ask is expensive. But how much is one life worth, right? How many lives does it take to justify them fixing an intersection like that, right? There's always a limit. You know, a couple of people will die there and they'll have a couple of meetings. A couple more people will die and someone will make a statement in legislature about it and then forget about it. And then a couple more people will die and they'll still do nothing about it. Sorry, I'm yelling. Sorry, gotta keep my voice down. Don't raise your voice, Trucker Josh. Calm down. I know. I get mad at these things. I get mad that it takes people dying for the government to act sometimes. And I live out here on these highways, so I'm passionate about highways and I know that they're a safer way of doing things. And I know there's better ways, yet they still do it the backwards way, every time here in Winnipeg. Every time. It's so frustrating. The city planners here have no idea what they're doing. They don't consult anybody who actually drives on them. I'd love it if they give me a call and ask my opinion, you know? We could save ourselves intersections like that. No one needs to die. No one needs to lose their life because of poor planning, right? I'm passionate about these things. Gets me going. Gets me going. But it's Friday, so we're gonna release those feelings right now and we're gonna fill ourselves with excitement and fun because it's gonna be the weekend, alright? It's gonna be the weekend. Well, that took a long time. That took all day. That's all I'm doing today. Now I'm back and everyone else is gone already, so I figured I'd just park her right in the middle of the lot there and give you some behind-the-scenes footage as I go to place you guys down right over there so you can wash me back up. I think I can get her in in one shot. I make no promises. I am gonna put you down, hmm, I could put you down right here or right there or in there. Where do you guys want to sit? Hey guys, how about on this bumper here, okay? How about like right here? You're out of the way then, but you don't get that good of a view, right? If I put you here, I might drive over you again. We don't want that. I promise to take much better care of you guys now. I'm not mad at my word. How about here? You're sort of facing up a little bit because this thing is bent. How about there? Right there. I think that's a good spot. You're gonna be right here, okay? I need you all to hang on. All right? You got one job. Hang on. Five stars for holding on tight. You didn't even fall down.
