    Sorry:
    It now seems obvious. It's in the air why about 73% of our atmosphere so why not capture it on the site?

    If you an get on with Flint....take it !!!! They just got bought out by URS not too long ago. Good company that's been around a lot of years.


    have a look around their site/ They do everything. We do a lot of their pipeline work.

    Hold off on paying for your own tickets, a lot of the companies around here will want you to get ' their ' tickets and pay for them in a greenhand school. Enform, Global and Red Cross are widely recognized. I would expect full swing into August but our shop is overloaded with guys and we're all sort of sitting idle since its been raining so much, once things dry out and the road bans come off they'll be looking at hiring new people daily.

    Lol I didn't know anyone was looking for me.. I'm full on into move to red deer mode. Found myself a great rental for the family and they're coming up in july.

    There are a lot of expenses I didn't think about, one of those is the rediculous out of province inspection (yes I finally decided to get those pink learner plates the cars here in alberta wear) 219+tax for my f150, 90.00 for a ' wheel alignment '... 354.00 total.. then 90 for the plates, 100 to transfer my license from BC to Alberta, o but I have a class 1, so now I need to spend another hundred and stand in line for a physical.. yeesh.

    Add to that paying canada post 90 for a year to re-route my mail, paying for the move (thankfully my company is paying me a 4k relocation bonus since I signed on to stay a year with them (next year prairieboy!) plus damage deposit, pet deposit and first months rent (theres 3k, poof..)

    I'd like to get out on some more jobs but this f'n rain won't let up.. its pushing the season back and I'm getting sick of shop days dragging on...........

    You made a good move. By next year you will do even better with all the experience you get. Good luck.

    Glad to hear all is well. I'm heading out to Red Deer on July 7th. Will try my luck at Sanjel the following Tuesday July 10th. Hopefully the weather turns around. I'm ready to get on board and work. :)

    Cool man, sure - they're looking for guys, there are 3 yards here, cementing/pumping services - frac and n2/coil you should throw your hat in the ring at the pumping services shop as they just won 2 contracts and are looking for guys.

    Yes, there sure is a ton of experience, I'm doing so much on the hardware side of things now and I'm grateful for that - from pulling apart horsepower manifolds, full fluid changeovers, 250 services, cvips etc its not too bad at all.. i've been out on a few great jobs, just looking to get this rain to let up so things can dry out and the season can start. They were really strict with the evaluation for green today, i'm at 6 months with Sanjel so far and its really been a great experience.. so much training - i just need some more time on the road, since I transferred down here I havn't had much driving time in, not for a couple months now.. when I was cementing up in edson I drove constantly.
