Thanks,
Had a day of throwing my tapes into the water today, Berth 5 Valdez terminal. Erecting a little 4'X30' platform suspended under the sump. Safway tube and clamp. Simple should have gone quickly but.....
No worries it will be there in the morning.
For what it is worth wages in Alaska are down, about $500 a week less than last year for me a bigger cut for others. Two years ago 7, 12hour days 10 weeks on two weeks off were common. Now 6 10 hrdays with 6 weeks on 2 weeks off. Laborers are at $24.49 now, full scale is $32.00 There are no carpenters working on the Trans Alaska Pipeline.
Good luck to all and keep your tapes dry!
Justin, I work for Patent in Georgia. We have no work down here in the south and I am needing to work. I will travel anywhere. If you know of anything please let me know. I am a Journeyman and also a foreman/leadman. Just wondering if you could help me out.
Thanks,
Jimmy Barnes
Thank you, Justin. I am currently working off and on for the KC branch. I am only filling in where they need me, so work has not been that consistent lately. I was just researching scaffold builders to see if there were any outages that were about to start that I could travel to. If you hear of any nuclear or power plants that are in need of help, please let me know at your convenience. I have worked at various power plants including Sibley and Iatan, and I have been doing scaffolding for 2 1/2 years. I can pass a drug/alcohol test, a background check, I have no criminal record, and a good driving record as well.
hello justin how would i be able to get work on your side of the pond its nothing but doom and gloom at the moment with the resession on at the moment ,i was working in london up until last year on various projects but the work ran dry and i have had to come home and theres not a lot of good jobs on the go
aye everythings good this side of the pond apart from the weather i was waiting for my lift for work and i couldnt believe it it was close to white out with snow ,i couldnt complain tho i had a job inside on the nuclear power station that i work in ,is their any big jobs coming off soon?
Thats funny I dont care who you are!!!!!!!!! Sure he is hasn't he ever showed you his ratchet muscle????? Family is okay, oldest turns 18 in November. I'm packing for him now so we dont have to wait. The other 2 teenagers keep my life pretty interesting and the little one just keeps his head down and out of the way.
no im to heavy to bounce these days. I barely fit in the hole. how are you and your family?
Intesting page; you got going here. i did not know richard ozuna was a scaffold builder lol
i have tools and will travel, currently have resumes out across the country, and am hoping to be able to get in on all the scaffold work up in alberta canada, at fort mcmurray, appreciate any and all leads you might have, and i will let you know of any i come across as well.
Yes, I have been at it quite some time now!!! Always new challenges though.. Keeps a man from being bored. Scaffolds are like works of art in many cases!!!!!!
Happy New Year Justin!
Here are a couple of links for our Occupational Health and Safety legislation, if you are interested in comparing what you have in the States. I expect that it is much the same. I will try to find the link for free access to the Canadian Standard Association Z97-09, as well. It is new and I am not as familiar with it as its predessesor, CAN/CSA-269.2 M87. http://employment.alberta.ca/documents/WHS/WHS-LEG_ohsc_2009.pdf http://employment.alberta.ca/SFW/3969.html
If there is a way to attach files to the site let me know and I'll see what I can dig up. I have a fairly decent library of manufacturer's specifications.
Cheers,
Mark
