HEy Chris I'll do some searching and try to find something. I think I know of a few companies looking for class 1 work. Did you check out www.indeed.ca? I saw lots of Class 1 type jobs there.

Did you follow up on that lead I gave you for that Materials handler position?

Yeah dude I just came from Canadian Sub Surface here in town till they layed me off along with others... No wireline jobs are to be found ANYWHERE.. and now they tell me yeah your the next call back we do when it picks up ... But who knows when that will happen ...

I did apply for a pardon but unsure weather I wanna do long haul down south, might not come back... hahaha...

I will check that site & thank you for the heads up. But I did get a call today from good ol Timmies ... A job is a job right now i guess ... :banghead:

You do not want to drive for Pepsi. It is not a sweet job. Its extremely hard on your back and body. Taking shit up and down stairs. And if you are in calgary you will start nights could be for a year

[westbeach70]

Nah dude I am down here in Medicine Hat.. And believe me I am good to go on the haulin pop and merchin coolers etc... Anything is better then nothing right now...

Its just until you find something better man, I'm on the same boat trust me.

I went from making things (in the company I work for) for the Military, several aeronautical companies and other big ticket firms to doing landscaping until the economy gets back on its feet. :nut:

Never thought this would happen, but.... Im just doing it to pay the bills until things change for the better. :thumbsdow

[westbeach70]

Yeah dudes its kinda crazy out there ... Hope everything works out for ya, and things start to pickup... We can only hope...

Hey Chris, I saw this on the back of an 18 wheeler. Apparently they're hiring class 1 drivers and warehouse staff.
Call Denis (dont quote me on that, it was dirty and hard to read)
at (403) 720-5800

Not too sure where in So. Alberta that is, it may be Calgary but who knows..

There may be a parts delivery job here that I'lll post up around noon today. Its local in Calgarys SE, Delivering parts for a transmission company... so more or less pick up and drop off type work, $14/hr.... I'll update this when I know more.
