    So I guess I have to thank the UA-cam algorithm for this one. I watched this video from start to finish not knowing anything about your channel and I have to say I love the down to earth realness of your video. I will subscribe and watch them all. My name is Tom and I can’t wait to watch more content from y’all. Safe Travels Amigos 👊

    That definitely doesn’t look like a lot of fun, but we give you credit for giving it a try! At least they provide you with plenty of power and the tanks, but for sure would not use that “fresh” water for any consumption! Hang in there!!

    • @thisisouradventure
      @thisisouradventure  3 місяці тому

      Like we always say we will try anything once but this is definitely not for us or the dogs..lol. We do appreciate the set up they have given us for sure and for the most part everyone has been very nice that is on site. Ya we don't use that water for consumption even with our filter set up at all.... yuck!

    So glad you guys finally got a gate, but sounds like you are having second thoughts 8) We were having flashbacks of our time on gate while watching this week. Best of luck- Wander On- Kyle and Michelle

      We are glad we got to experience it but it definitely is not for us and the dogs told us we cant' do it again...lol. We don't know how you all did it in a smaller RV with the sleeping shifts, it was hard enough with our big RV. Safe travels.

    Probably too late for this gig, but for future adventures, Avon Skin So Soft works great for bugs. Even Noseeums. They also make wipes and a spray called Bug Guard plus. Either works fantastic. I personal like the wipes the most. Unfortunately we always run out because my wife keeps selling them to our neighbors at campgrounds. lol

    • @thisisouradventure
      @thisisouradventure  3 місяці тому

      Thank you so much for the suggestion. We are always looking for things that will help with the bugs, especially when we are hiking. We will have to look for those items. Thank you for following us on our adventures!

    Oh my gosh! You both are so funny swatting the bugs. It’s not funny but funny if you know what I mean. I hear you on wanting to quit and the reasons why. That’s not a fun job! Dogs know when they aren’t having fun and let you know and they probably knew you weren’t having fun either. That’s sad it didn’t work out but at least you gave it a try. Someday something good will come your way. Thank you for the video. Glad you showed what the job was. Hope you have a great week. And see you soon! Safe travels.

    Ugh I couldn't do it. Sounds like they told a lie so you can leave. Get yourself some captain Ron's bug spray it works great for the noseeums.

      We are not sure if it was intentional or just the person initially was misinformed and then passed that information along to us, either way it is what it is. It isn't awful just not for us. We will have to check into that bug spray because the one we have doesn't seem to do anything that is for sure. Thanks for watching

      It is extremely boring. We aren't sure how some people do it for long periods of time. It is almost like being on house arrest..lol.

    I'd like to know som of the other logistics of the job. How far do you have to go to get groceries. Are you being paid on a 1099 or W-2? Cna you work for other companies or are you tied to one company? What are the qualifications to be a gate guard?

    • @thisisouradventure
      @thisisouradventure  3 місяці тому

      We plan on releasing all that info in another video but here is the information...
      We are lucky and this location is rather close to town so we can be to a Walmart within 10 min. We are paid as a contractor with a 1099. Once you obtain a Security License you can hold up to 4 companies at one time (so if one company doesn't seem to have the right fit you will have other options). Basically to be qualified you have to pass a background check, have finger prints taken and take a 6 hour class and pass the test at the end. Other than that it is relatively easy. Thanks for watching and keep a look out for an upcoming video that we will go into more detail of the process and what to expect,

    Looks like your gave it your best and it's not for you. We are in our 70's and this is our 3rd winter gate guarding. We have worked plenty of frac's and entered and exited every vehicle and not just waved them by as you are able to do. I hope you find something more enjoyable.

      Wow we can't imagine having to log every sand truck that comes in and out, we are grateful that this company doesn't want that. We are glad we tried it and now we know it isn't for us. We have met a lot of people who love it. We always say we will try anything once, it definitely was an experience. Safe travels!
