Hey..as some of you already know i got hooked up with a sweet ass job. I get paid $21.03 an hour and i work 10 hours a day from monday-thursday. That means i get friday, saturday and sunday off. This is so nice. I get paid every thursday as well. My first check was $650 (i missed a couple hours cuz of training) and my second check was $700. I am so happy right now. Now i can afford to get my neon lights put on underneath and a CAI...sweetness. Oh ya and i just found out we're getting a raise to about $22.03...oh ya!!! i'm only 17 too :)

Hahaha...well don't forget that is in canadian dollars. OUr minimum wage right now is $8.00/hour. I work for Myco which is a company that does labouring. We were hired by Duke Energy (used to be Westcoast Energy) and i basically vessel watch. This means when other guys (welders, inspectors, buffers, etc.) go inside of confined spaces (ex. a gas condesner) i have to sit on my ass and make sure that the levels on the H2S monitors don't go to high. So basically i sit on my ass and watch a monitor..ye haw
