you should ask the guys based in YYZ what they think about pay, schedule, stress on the job and how much downtime they have.

Very big difference between YYC/YHZ and YYZ bases.....but you had to work in Toronto to realize that, so I don't blame you for being ill informed.

Ikarus,

If you check up on the posts I've made regarding Georgian, you'll notice I've already acknowledged the difference in life between Toronto and Calgary/Halifax. Life in YYC is very different and much more laid back. I did my line Indoc in YYZ, so I'm well aware of the difference. I can assure you I'm not 'ill informed'.

Cheers

Fair enough,

as long as guys asking about the two companies understand that it's a BIG difference if you are YYZ based vs YHZ/YYC. And I guess that working for the Bear in TBay would be a significant lifestyle difference then being based elsewhere in Bear's system. Just a guess...
