I'm finding the same with excavator jobs. Most I see are for the city, at wages where it would cost me to work for them.
Pipeline work is spotty. Work a few days, a week or more off. Unless a person can join a union (good luck!) to work one of the bigger pipe jobs here.

And those "specialists" on TV are saying AB is booming. Ya, right. Maybe they are using last years stats. I've been told only 10% of the rigs are working in AB right now.

And to think I moved back here for more work.....and now sending applications as far as Russia for work !

Last month I believe 46% of rigs were back up and running.
But yes I know what you guys mean. I am seeing lots of out of the country postings right now.
We recently had a pile of welders apply with us becuase they have been laid off from fab shops in Nisku.
