Serious question for people working up there. I'm looking to get an oil field job. I don't have a lot of experience in stuff like that. Worked as a laborer for the last 5 years. Will some companies train you and apprentice you? If so, will they expect you to be a mechanical kind of person. I'm not into cars or anything like that...I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I'm not dumb either.
I’m was born in Alberta and have never had any interest in seeing or going to Fort Mac...My cousins use to live the and they always called it Fort Crack lol...
I think I'm going to go up and get a job in the Oil Sand as a Heavy Hauler. I'm just under 18 years old and all the Overtime you get with that pay is crazy. Fort McMurray may not be a nice town, but it'll do.
@GrimeyBeatProduction When you don't see trucks up for sale driving into the town up on the Hill, its in a boom, or something close to it. When vehicles are up for sale, well, someone spent more money than they were able to earn long term = no boom lmao.
@somewhatlongdong Haha.....really...only you would know that. Not that there's anything wrong with it. Arrived here 25 years ago and never noticed that. Wow.
lmfao can she hook the rest of us up with work! im sure the radio station pays well lol alot of jobs in town are going down! saw a shuttle job other day for 10 bucks an hour! wow used to get 18 for that! even still average wage in town seems to be 15-20hour depending on what you do! it used to be easy to get work up here but it has changed! there were alot of people who are on EI as of 2012! its not boom'n right now! and if your single up here you are screwed!
first, get on as a laborer. those jobs are a dime a dozen. then as you work there for longer as for training from the staff. i know with some jobs like operators they will start you on the smallest piece of equipment. make sure you get your ossa & safety certificates before you come or do it in ft fort mac by safeway. you NEED safety stuff to get out there.
"safety" lol what a joke! all for face this place lets foreign interest exploit its resources. the province itself has this loophole about apprenticeships, where you pretty much have the carrot dangled for any opportunity instead of merit. unless daddy worked at suncor/syncrude all his life good luck! this place & country is going into the trash... unfortunately.
depends what you wanna do alot of companys will start your apprenticeship there. however unless you have some good coin saved up and dont mind renting out just a bedroom for around a grand a month and be told they would like it if you were out on the weekends i wouldnt bother going there. if i were you id start in edmonton and get with a company here fort crack is shit
800 a month... so ur renting out a bedroom in someone elses house... great life... id really like to hear where ur making 10 grand a month with no trade in a trade town... cuz it sure as shit isnt at tim hortons..
lmfao got nothing to do with chunk when it comes to using your mouth!! plus he didnt like that! he just wanted to pretend his not getting older..so get a 20 year old lol..i figure that would make em feel older lmao..oh well..good on him.what goes around comes around.. lmfao my new man is damn happy with me lmfao thats all im say'n...haha peace man
Rick works for CBC he's only able to say certain things ! make it look like a land of opportunity, but does not delve into the bigger issue, Because CBC is mostly paid for by corporations they are limited, Capitalism it is.
yes, fort mac sucks but it's what you make of it. if you're sick of being unemployed and need work, you won't bitch. but if you're from the city used to lots of stores and stuff it can be a culture shock. rent is expensive, about 800 a room. but if you are making 4g's a month would you really complain .
"I'm happy to be here in Fort McMurray"
Ehh, not if you were to go right now...
91,000 income it doesn't mention the cost of living is through the roof there and its a complete shit hole.
"I will learn to express my...what do you call them? ...FEELINGS"
I agree, Fort McMurray is great. It is a place to live and enjoy.
