I am a 4th and writing my first 2 papers for the 3rd on November 6th here in Lloydminster.

I was in Lloyd when they where just starting to build it. I was wondering how it turned out, they where pouring the fermenters and they where huge.

I'm a HEO "heavy equipment operator" run most everything, excavator dozer and such. I laughed though when I read about sniffing dirt because it reminded me of when a co-worker and I were using the "urinal" beside our fuel tank for a few days and then the environment guy investigated the stain on the ground and took a big sniff of our pee.

I've had to clean up a few oil, fuel and even sewage spills though. Not all mine of course.

I think i would eventually work on my 1st.

I have often wondered if you wind up out classing yourself with a First Class Ticket. I am unable to finish my first in my current job if I wanted to got for a first, and having to move is just not a option. I think of all the places in southern alberta where you need a first and there are not that many. But with that being said it sure would the icing on the cake career wise.

I'm a pipeline operator for shell canada. Working on my 4th class power engineer ticket, need steam time. And one day hope to own my own farm/ranch outfitting business, once this happens I'll retire.

BobM · #**144** 10-26-2008, 11:24 AM

I retired last spring and have found it to be a great job. Love the free time to hunt and fish, just got home from whitetail and goose hunting in Saskatchewan. It's the best job I've ever had

I build and renovate things. Mostly decks and garages, but have been doing entire basement developments as of late, and some smaller renos. Things haven't really slowed for me, yet.

I'm a forester as well. I must be on the front side of the experience curve (compared to JohninAB et al), as I get out to the bush about half the time.

Neat idea for a thread, by the way.
