 It still doesn't feel like January out there knock on wood Hope it stays that way. It's nice. I shouldn't say nice and warm, but it's a trailer to start the day the big city Made the dock. They're putting stuff in the box stuff of epic proportions that only a professional can deliver So I don't know why they sent me So I think this stuff is going into rural Manitoba I'm probably going to put some more stuff on the trailer before I head out I got into the city nice and early today. So what's the time now? Time is Time to get a watch right? 850 5 0 so before 9 o'clock and we're in the city loading already So we shouldn't have a problem spending the morning getting this trailer all filled up And then we can spend the afternoon getting it all unloaded And then we can bring back an empty trailer Park the truck inside and go home for the glorious weekend. Oh, I think they're done. I heard the The thingy go up. Oh, yep. There it is the dock plate heard that go up next I'll hear my trailer rolling door close. You know, leave it open. Oh Whatever I have to go and open it and check on things anyway. I don't care if they leave it open So here I can't go into the building either COVID so I gotta wait for him to come out. Oh, he was just putting the dock plate down Well, they're just getting started now I'm confused. Oh Whatever so I can't go in there. They're doing their thing and they're gonna load me up when they're done They bring the paperwork out and they put it in a box Outside and I watch them walk over to the box put it in the box and close it Then they walk back inside then I can go and get my paperwork from said box I open it get my paperwork close it back up and then go to my truck Contactless pickup. That's how they do it here. Each place is a little different. I wish there was sort of like a uniform Rule that everybody followed But since we are somewhat free still each individual business private business can Sort of make their own rules around the general guidelines of the pandemic So it is kind of confusing every place you go to is different You just got to be patient and Keep your ears open your eyes open listen read the signs and Be as polite and kind as you can There he goes with my paperwork now. I guess they were done. Okay, so now I'll watch from to put it in the box And then I'll go get my paperwork pull out of the dock go check on everything Be off to the next place It's Friday Anyone in the mood for meatballs? I haven't gone to Ikea in so long All I can remember from there is that it's the most confusing store to get out of and meatballs They sell meatballs and cheap furniture. That doesn't come with proper instructions. It's just pictures In my trailer for some more very fine. It's been a little while again since I've been able to get my bean to cup I'm excited I'm on my way into southern Manitoba here filled up the trailer and Winnipeg this morning And we're out to make our deliveries and then go home for the weekend Oh, yeah You excited? What are your weekend plans? Let me know. I Need to know Actually quite a bit of weight in the trailer today I have a handjack in my trailer and I sort of position it in the trailer and where I want it Those skids had to have been like six thousand pounds and Was worse than I had to push them uphill because the truck was slanted backwards in the dog We're on the outside we're loading It's hard to push six thousand pounds up hill on a slippery floor You want but I did it What I did it? Living the dream Actually, I am living my dream. I always wanted to be a truck driver here Headed south down towards the US border But not getting too close to it. We're getting over to Rosen or Manitoba And then come back across towards Steinback So this is a 13 speed truck. I want to see me shift through all the gears. Let's go through all of them Fly down to I'm doing one 60 kilometer an hour 40 mile an hour here now with the locals here Oh, they'll fly down here at 90 100 kilometers an hour maybe faster It's like 60 miles an hour I believe the speed limits on all gravel roads are default at 90 which is about 55 miles an hour. We're sort of we're north of Steinback right now Closer to St. Anne If you get to go down the back roads every day Not as much traffic. The people you find on these roads are usually pretty easy going Country people They just want to be your friend Look at this house on the right little house on the prairie. Wow not one tree around that whole house. I Couldn't do it. I Couldn't do it. I need trees around my house But they at least planted trees around their property already, right? But they're probably you know, I'm never gonna get to see them when they're fully grown It goes with the saying that you plant trees When you know you'll never get to enjoy their shade, you know Planting it for the next generation Large country where the second largest country in the world, right second only to Russia There's so many different regions and places of Canada that are so different Canada or people talking about Canada This is what I think of these Manitoba countryside. It's from right here and west of here is Saskatchewan and Alberta Canadian prairies The bread basket of Canada you might say other people when they think of Canada think of some totally different a lot of people for Some reason think of Toronto when they think of Canada That's the last thing I think of when someone says Canada to me. You know, especially in the US When people ask me if I'm gonna go out from Canada, they're like all around Toronto They live like 30 hours away from Toronto in a completely different world Oh But we have the same flag over us So it's pretty much all we got in common when you think of Canada if you're not from Canada if you think of Canada What comes to mind? What do you think of? Let me know down below So got off work. Oh, I'd love to go home The bridge says she's in there and would like some help I don't know where in there, but she's in there somewhere It's tough grocery shopping on your own especially when you got a lot of groceries to carry to the car I'll go in there See what she's up to give her a hand whoa and try not to fall on the way in Look at how big Chevy over there and spanking new pickup truck And he goes and voids all his warranty by lifting it up It's gotta be what? 10 inches or so 10 12-inch lift Must be doing pretty well for himself if you can afford to do that Or he's just really really hoping that nothing's gonna go wrong and that he won't need his warranty It looks cool either way gotta give him that it does look cool All right guys, so it came Just finishing this vlog up the next day. So it is Saturday came on time This is the new microphone. See and it just sits on a little mount Right there. There's so many wires on this desk That's exactly why I moved the desk back to this room so that all these wires wouldn't be around our main living area There's lots I need it all it's it's all needed like these cords here for my headset This is for my USB ports that I hide back there. This is for my web cam here. This is for the internet connection. This is for The monitor it's all needed. So that's why we have it back here And we have our charging cables over here and here It's a life of cords But it's hidden away in this room now my office slash guest room slash dog room Right guys and my co-editors and the publishers have to impress them with my vlogs. Otherwise they fire me So this thing comes with its own little carrying case. It's a comica professional audio equipment I think it comes from China what I Got all I can afford. Okay, so It's got this fluffy little mic an extra thing about jiggers in there everything you need in there and a little bag of Silica beads I'm supposed to throw away do not eat it says Good thing to put that on there. Otherwise, I would Oh Candy now you buy a camera from China. They always send you a little candy bag, but it says do not eat on it Don't get it. All right, so if I hold the mic here's a directional mic, so it should be picking me up real good Can you hear me now? Can you hear me now? What if I point it? The other way hello testing testing doesn't work if you speak into the rear end Hopefully that will make the audio a little bit better From here on out. I guess we'll see Because if I talk at the same level as I was before without the mic, this is what it sounds like So this is without the mic and I'm just gonna plug it in here real quick and This is what it would sound like With the microphone the microphone would probably be further away probably about like that As long as I have it pointed at me it should Sort of drown out the rest of the truck noise Hopefully not all of it because I like the sound of the truck in there I just want my voice to be dominant over the truck I don't want to have to yell and scream just to be heard all day So this isn't something I would be using Everywhere I go, but mostly just when there's a lot of background noise Maybe outside when it's windy just to get that noise from the wind out of there So there you go a little bit of behind-the-scenes with TJV Excited when I get some new equipment. I don't get new equipment that often anymore. So I pretty much got everything I need I use the GoPro hero 7 black edition we have two of them So if this one goes out on me, I have a spare And I really like the wide angle. I know some people don't like the fisheye lens look But I really like the wide angle sort of shows the room that I'm in more Even though there's really nothing to show off about this room. This is just our storage room slash guest room slash dog room So that's it for today. Thanks for hanging out. We had a lot of fun trucking It's time to enjoy the weekend now.
