    Default Temp employment in Canada -- bush work

    The company I work for is looking for field operators for geophysical surveys. The work would be in the bush, expenses paid, medical insurance for international jobs. Accomodations are either in motels or well-organized bush camps (including laundry facilities and staff cooks). There are no off days when you're in the field, but you are paid 7 days a week. Depending on your work performance and project availability, there is the possibility of permanent employment.
    Here's what we would find ideal (other than experienced field operators lol):
    -If you like the outdoors (go camping, hiking, etc.)
    -Technical skills (if you can replace various components on your computer and/or install a car stereo, that's a great start)
    -Good physical shape -- you will be hiking through the bush, lifting or even carrying some heavy equipment. It's not as bad as construction, but there is hard work to be done.

    To apply, call 905-731-0972 and ask for Alex, and if he's not available, ask for Chris.

    Therefore, gentlmen, if you know people in Canada who need to make some extra cash, send'em our way. Preferably from ON or NB, but I believe that any CDN location would be ok, depending on how much they like the person.

    Hmm. I've been wanting to quit my job.

    I've got so much stuff in my place, though. That'd mean leaving it.

    We will be doing a job in Arizona, in January AFIK. If you're serious about it I can confirm with Alex and let you know.

    Hmmm, I have no job currently, and meet the points requirement for a Canadian migration visa...

    Shame my girlfriend doesn't!

    Oh well.

    Ah well. If you ever decide you need to take an extended vacation from her, you know who to call.. Travelling also gives you plenty of opportunities for safe temporary substitutes

    Well, the risk of getting caught is minimal.. Now my level of attachment to my girl is high enough to keep me toeing the line, but there are plenty of opportunities for crossing out there lol

    I can back Ilija up on this one...my whole division travels 90% of the time and more than a few married guys have more than a few girlfriends in more than a few states/countries lol.
