    Infield jobs definitely.
    Cementing - Sanjel -
    Drilling
    Then batteries do what they call turnarounds. Time varies with that. That could be up to 3 weeks like Connacher. Small places are just a few days.
    There are also road bans - which affect just about any aspect of trucking.

    Tell you one thing newf. A job with flights is earned. You get hired you show your committed know what your doing and after a couple three months if they like you they will pay your flights. Only companies that I'm aware that pays flights are CEDA and clean harbours. I'm sure there's more out there. Flights are a luxury and not guaranteed.

    Jesus christ. I didn't realize companies will pay for guys from out east to fly back and forth. I didn't realize there was such a shortage of drivers.

    Nothing to do with shortag. You get one easterner on top the food chain and they hire nothing but easterners. It's been like that for awhile. North American construction in Fort Mac is the same (newfees) Lord tunderin Jesus is it chree o clack caffee already.

    ........ here we go with the 'easteners' again ..............

    I'm starting to think a lot of 'native' 'westeners' were transported to the 'west' by spaceship from another planet thus giving them just cause to smear 'easteners'

    For the umpteenth time ...... the OP is un-educated ..... instead of ripping him/her down, do like SARABEARA and EDUCATE !!!

    BTW Phil - welcome to the forum - explore all 1 million pages of the oil patch thread. I'm sure many of your questions will be answered there.

    Luck -
