Hi cujo! I'm currently working in res as a 4th year. Most of my experience is commercial though. I've worked for Canem, tempo and muth. I'm looking at taking an industrial job in nisku or the park possibly. Money is calling my name ;) how about you? Are you a j? Thanks for the message!!

Welcome to the forum. I am trying to obtain a union apprenticeship myself. I would have to say union because of the standards of training that they have.

Good luck!:thumbup:
I'd say the Canadian ibew is lagging in the training department. Here the union only has about 13% of the work. In the middle of the oil sands push and the union has a bad name for itself. It sucks, but the benefits and pension are wicked and I'll take work where I can get it. I just don't know anyone that works industrial that isnt union, so wanted to see if maybe the sites themselves were better overall.
