Yes, well...

Quote from: "Chuck Bronson"There's lots of trades work here, and with the right company the pay is OK, relatively speaking.  Van is somewhat limited with opportunity for the 'average' guy...  Trades is the best way to stay busy and earn a living here, it seems.

Pay for residential work is a bit low, but that is most of the work in urban areas. I had a chance to go to the NWT for big money. I would never be home, so I turned it down.

I am looking into challenging the exam to become a journeyman plumber, and HVAC tech if I can.

Hmm. I don't remember saying that. I did live there from 2002-2005. It was more quiet and cozy back then. Now it's a gong show. The city of Richmond is terrible.

That will be what will hold you back then...  as far as wages and opportunities.



You need to bide your time, and get the Red Seal.

Yes, I flew here..



Taking public transportation while we are here, I don't realize how crowded the place is or how congested the roads are.

Are rents still rising in the Vancouver area?
