Re: If not AME then??
Wow. I figured the “work for free” and “pay your own training” only applied to the aircraft fondlers but I stand corrected. Elon obviously has his own cult all falling in line nice and pretty with the “can do” attitude. Pathetic honestly but just ripe for abuse. I don’t know what else to say but en...

Re: Adverse Reactions Poll
So now after having read through this thread its pretty clear that there are two types of mindsets at play here. one is promoting complete belief and compliance and directing others to do as they have, or theyre attacked in different ways for questioning narratives and acting independently. the othe...

Funny thing is there is like 1800 views on this thread, which in a backhanded sort of way gave MAG more exposure for their shit offer.

Re: Dominos delivery driver vs KFC apprentice wages...
Where in Canada are located that you claim to have a "comfortable middle class wage" wrenching on airplanes and, since you skipped this in your reply, what is your shift and daily hours?

Re: Dominos delivery driver vs KFC apprentice wages...
Yes the pizza delivery guy is paid more than the apprentice. But that is all the delivery driver will ever do. As the years go by the apprentice learns new skills and his wage increases. He now make $40-60 an hour and has multiple employers fighting over him What will the apprentice or AME do in th...

Re: Dominos delivery driver vs KFC apprentice wages...
Then they are required to post what they(dominos) are paying. Nowhere does it say "including tips" in their ad but there is a chance you're right.I’m sure the drivers are minimum wage or very close to it without tips
in any case, a pizza delivery guy is making as much or more than a apprentice

I cant recall ever seeing a sale on type course seats months in advance, hence the question.
Is the training federal government subsidized?

I was wondering wtf "maintenance facility" ac has in regina, lol. You guys just confirmed it.
It sounds like its tough sledding to staff this position as they are cold contacting on linkedin trying to find bodies.

That sounds about right. Always wondered why quebecers are so willing to sell thier asses for cheap. The worst offers for contract I've ever gotten are from quebec.
Looks like tofino air spends thier money on thier webpage.

I don't think Kamloops cost of living is quite the worst in Canada but your choices for employment are very limited in the immediate area. Closest place would be Kelowna, with KF or Carson, but the round trip commute from Kamloops is almost 4 hours, depending on traffic, which has worsened drastical...
