Re: HGV/CDL

No, things in Canada didn't work out for me, and I came home. Nothing to do with Bulk or Canada in general, but all to do with family problems and my sons diabetes care. I'm sad that it didn't go as...

Re: HGV/CDL

Sorry Graham, but I think you must have me mixed up with someone else. I came over September 2009, to work for Bulk Carriers on Hillbilly Island. Sadly, I have never been to Manitoba.

Re: HGV/CDL

Funny old world sounds about right.

The Geneva Convention deals with the treatment of prisoners and civilians during war and armed conflict. :confused:

Re: A positive H&R thread for a change lol ;)

I blame H&R for the ash cloud, the BA cabin crew strike, the Gulf oil spill and the hung Parliament. My father thinks they bear full responsibility for his old age, and my daughter suspects that...

Very sorry to hear that you're "loose", Mick. Perhaps some immodium might clear it up.

Re: Midland Transport, NS - Any Info?

I understand your point of view Martin, but you should bear in mind that the really good canadian transport companies do not need to bring in foreign workers. They are happy to wait for companies...

I know Graham, but if we all bang away at him for long enough, he may get the message. But, then again, maybe not.

Re: Midland Transport, NS - Any Info?

If that's the case, then why do you haunt these forums, looking for any sign of dissatisfaction to latch on to, then pull the companies in question apart? You've done it with Seafood Express, Big...

Re: Pictures from the road on your travels

I've got to admit, I'm a bit jealous of that photo, Koog. I talked myself out of buying launch day tickets, because these things rarely blast off on time. Of course this one took off exactly on time,...

Re: Midland Transport, NS - Any Info?

That would really make your day, wouldn't it?

Why do you even care? Are you still pretending you'll ever have the courage to make the leap yourself?

Re: Midland Transport, NS - Any Info?

Don't choose Midland if you want to travel the USA and Canada. 99% of the work is "running the triangle", from the NS, NB, or PEI to New York area, then to Toronto, then home again. This usually...

Well done, Steve. Now the fun really begins! You'll turn green with envy when you see how easily Greg changes gear, while your fighting with the gear lever and stripping teeth from the gearbox. I've...

Don't forget what I told you! Read the questions VERY carefully, and remember that there may be more than one answer. All the info is in the book Mike gave you, but it might be worded a little...

Re: Whats with Tucking on PEI

I got a bell mobile in the Maritimes. $15 expires after 1 month, $25 or $50 after 2 months. I only use it for calls within Canada. Pre paid long distance calling cards are best for phoning home to...

Re: Whats with Tucking on PEI

The pub is the Roadhouse in Cornwall, and I think it has free wi-fi. You pay for the laundry, but you do at the Sunny king too ($1.25 for the washer and $1.25 for the dryer). Rooms at the SK are $525...

Steve,

Going well so far. Before you leave, install skype on your home PC - it's completely free to install and use - and add it to your laptop as soon as you get one. Go to skype.com and follow...

Re: Whats with Tucking on PEI

I got mine before I left, but that's because I wanted to load music and photos on to it. If you get one with wi-fi and a webcam, you'll be able to make free video calls home, as long as your home...

It's the ancient art of eating little cheesey biscuits - similar to ritzing, or so I've been told.
