 Good morning, my friends. Cheers to Friday. Is that something we do? Do we cheers with coffee? I've never done that before. It felt weird. Yes. Look at that. The sky is starting to get bright over there. Exciting. The earth is still turning. It's good. Good news. All right, this here is our trailer for today. The back six are going to Altona, one of the kick-up there is going to Blumenork, and the others are going to Winnipeg. I gotta do them in that order. Let's hook up time down. Let's get on the road. Someone else ordered a house. Delivery is delayed. All the boxes all full of fun toys are all delivered to their rightful places, and unfortunately, none of those rightful places were in my yard. We had to get a little dirty, though. One of the deliveries we went to was down a gravel road, and for some reason, you know, it's a sunny day, and it's been sunny the last couple of days. For some reason, the road was mud. Like someone had dumped water along it for about a mile. It wasn't like how they oil some gravel roads sometimes to keep the dust down. No, this was just like mud. It was so weird. It hasn't rained at all, but anyways, I had to go down that road now. I tried to go slow already, and look at this. Look at this. I don't know. You can't really tell the difference, but but I can. I can tell the difference. Look at this. Now she needs a bath. Had it along the frame there. Just straight mud. That wasn't good. Old trailer got filthy, too. So I haven't heard what my assignment will be this afternoon yet, but if there's nothing going on, which is not likely on a Friday, Fridays are usually very busy. But if for some whatever reason I got nothing to do this afternoon, I'm definitely going to pull out the power washer and give this truck a bath. It needs it. Shine up what I can. Shine anyways, right? That's what I always say. If it can shine, it will shine. It may not have many things to shine, but the things that can will. It's all dirty already. Yeah, we're fueling up here, and it's gonna be interesting to see how much fuel I use this week. We went to Thief River Falls three times. We went up to Arberg. What else did we do? I went to Altona today, and we put on about 2,200 kilometers this week. And it's gonna be interesting to see how much fuel I used. I was below a quarter tank already. All right, so we filled up one side. One tank. See that? All right, I'll do the other side and let's see. This is gonna be one of the bigger fill-ups I've done recently. I think I might have maxed out the fuel card for the day. I'm not quite full yet. I'm at 750 liters, $990. I don't think I maxed it out. I've not hired that before, but it just stopped working. I might have sucked this whole card lock dry of diesel. Something happened. It doesn't want to pump anymore. I'll try starting it again. See what happens. Y'all thirsty, Peter. What's going on over here? Excuse me. I wasn't finished. I'd like some more, please. Wipe here. Punch in my super secret password. See if it'll give me some more. I'm still thirsty. Excuse me. No, I don't have a... I need to get my members card out again. Forget where I put it. It's in storage somewhere at home. Filling up my tractor. Let's see. It's asking me all kinds of questions here. What's your favorite color? When's your birthday? Number. There you go. You gonna give me some more? I fueled up for more than this before. It's only 750 liters. I fueled up for over $1,000 before. Is it gonna tell me my fuel card's maxed out for the day? No, no. This is remove nozzle to fuel truck diesel. Okay. All right. Let's begin fueling. Maybe there's no more fuel to fuel with. Come on, fine, Jay. Give me some fuel. Let's see. Oh, let's put this card away when it's safe. All right. Oh. Oh, no, it's giving me more. Well, why did you stop then before? I'm confused. I think it's dirty too around here. It needs a really good wash and shine. This truck won't shine very much. It's an old truck, right? It's 2006. It's old. Even if I were to polish this up, there is no way to make it shiny and it would have to be refurbished. But who knows? Maybe they will. Maybe they won't. I mean, it's a work truck, right? It's a work truck and it does the job great. Passes the safeties and still running good. It's still a good truck. Alrighty. Let's hang her up and let's see what we came up with here. Get that nozzle up. There you go. So, there was an extra 90 liters. So, what were we up for? 750 liters? So, 750, 830 liters we got today and it was at $880, right? No, $990. I'll have to look back in the video. It was that plus $119. So, it was over $1,000 today. That was for this last week and we did do a lot of driving this week. So, it's, well, I guess I better close this. She may be dirty, but she still works better when you close up her fuel tanks. So, we've driven, oh yeah, 2,290 kilometers this week. 2,220, no, 2,221. Why can't I talk? I can't talk. Oh, there's a cop over there radaring people. Can you see them? If we wait here long enough, I bet we'll see him get someone. It's always funny watching other people get pulled over for speeding, but it's never as funny when it's you, right? I haven't gotten a ticket in over 10 years. Over 15 years, I think. It's been a long time. My driver's abstract and my driving record is squeaky clean. When you get a ticket, it stays on your driver's abstract here for five years. So, it's been a long time since I've had anything on there. I had a couple speeding tickets when I was young and dumb. Don't be like me, guys. If you're young, if you're a teenager, I got my urge to speed, I think, when I was younger. It's not what it feels like. I can blame any one thing. I was just young and dumb. I could blame video games, but they didn't make me speed. I chose to at the time and I paid the price for it and that's long gone. Long gone in my record. That's a long time ago. So, my best advice to all you youngsters out there who want to be a truck driver like me, best advice when you get into your car, drive responsibly. Drive nice. Don't speed. Obey all the laws and keep your driving record clean because trucking companies will look at that. And I don't know how it works where you are, but around here, it stays on your record for five years. That's a long time to wait for something to clear off. So, you want to just make sure you stay out of that trouble. And if you play video games like Need for Speed, I love those games too. I play them. And they make you want to speed. Just remember, leave it in the game. Okay. I don't believe that video games make people do bad things. I think people make people do bad things. Like it was your choice to do something bad. It was my choice to go too fast when I was younger, right? But you have to remember, just leave it in the game. When you're out on public roads, drive responsibly. Drive nice. That's my best advice I can give to you. Keep your driving record clean. No speeding tickets. No at fault accidents. Just be careful. Leave a little earlier. Don't be in a rush. Keep your head up. Keep your phone down. Wear your seatbelt. Do all the things that you need to to be a good boy or a good girl. Set the cops don't pull you over because that can really mess up your chances of getting a good trucking job for a long time. He's still sitting right over there. He's watching for you. Is he going to catch you? Thanks for watching today, everybody. It was a good Friday and I hope you guys all enjoyed your weekend. This video got released a little bit later than usual. I've had a really busy week. It's been pretty crazy. I'm sure you can understand your week was probably just as busy. I will see you guys tomorrow. Take care.
