Thread: Is this worth giving up 3 Summers???

    If you don't want the job, email me info on it. I've never ran a crane, but have ran almost every other piece of contruction equipment. If they don't want me I know they'd take my bro who has +20yrs, including crane experience!
    $30k a month is worth giving up a few summers.
    My buddy is the Super for this job. I worked with him most of last year. He has handpicked his crew and said he has to have me. I have my 25 yr old son living with me trying to get him straightened out (long story) I told Danny the only way I would consider it is if he gave my son a job so he can go with me. He told me if that is what it takes to get me there, my son has a job. I guess he wants me pretty bad. If everything he says is true and I dont doubt it is, I'm there!!

    If you don't have a family I would def do it. That isn't that long to be away with that kind of money. Def check with your tax man. Remember though, as many of us are in the same business, it could easily turn out a longer stay, because that's the way it is and shit happens. Go Local 12.
    The stay is cut and dried, too friggin cold to work during the winter months, spring to fall, 3 seasons thats it. I'm thinking I work 6-7 months and take the rest of the year off til spring when its time to go back. Wish it was in the southern hemisphere so their summer was our winter!! Local 12 huh, I guess that makes us union brothers. Might have even run into each other at some time. Been doin this for 18 years.

    If that money is tax free or close too it you really should think very hard about it.
    Also see what you get for housing...would suck to lose lots of your cash on housing.
    Company pays $200 a week plus $45 a day for expenses. Theres another $500 a week!!

    Smart move. Like I said, for that kind of jack I could line up one helluva crew to go...including myself!
    Good luck!!!!

    Is it all about the MONEY $$$$$ it does sound good
    I don't like to be told what to do or where to live. No one is yanking my chain.
    PRISONERS... in prison are always thinking of ways to get out.
    SLAVES... let the master provide them with what they need on the plantation.
    are you a SLAVE or A PRISONER ????
