I can put toilet paper on spools, and I can wander around in the bush also! They are hiring for this area (popular destination for tourists). I thought if I get sick of trucking, this job might not be a bad way to spend the Summer.
Now look at the god damned requirements I've posted below needed for this relatively basic position... You even have to take a course at BCIT? What the fuck? What happened to the olden days when you'd spend a few days with a senior employee learning the ropes in the field?
And the Provincial Government has this "diversity hiring" scheme too, so I'm probably too White and too male anyhow...
Why must they complicate a job where your real duties are wandering around the woods and putting toilet paper on spools?

is hiring. This is just a seasonal position, lasting about 5 to 7 months during Spring to Fall. I thought that this might not be a bad job... Understand that they are not peace officers like Conservation Officers are, so it seems to me that a Park Ranger would have fairly simple duties: Wander the trails making sure people behave (even though they have no enforcement authority), make sure nobody is burning when burn ban in effect, empty trash bins at park facilities, put new toilet paper on the little spools at park facilities, wave at tourists and answer their questions... Shit like that, I would imagine, would be an average day for a Park Ranger.Quote from: "Mel"

They want a lot for a seasonal entry level job that anybody can do. Probably only pays about $20 an hour.

Pay range is $24.50 to $27.50/hour, so not exactly stellar either for a very expansive Province to live in...Quote from: "Mel"
A little better, but somebody who has those qualifications can do better than that.

The requirements and the duties don't seem to match.

Just for fun I should email them and ask if they still hire white males, or if dressing up as a tranny would give me a competitive edge for the shortlist...

And that's the listing for a Park Ranger, which is about as entry level a position that there is in that field...Quote from: "Mel"

Then would have to take a $620 online course, which is administered by BCIT. I guess online isn't so bad, as at first I thought you'd have to attend BCIT, which is in Burnaby...

Two things I'd need before I even apply: Occupational First Aid. I have basic first aid training, but that doesn't count I guess. Card is expired anyhow.Quote from: "Mel"

Is Occupational First Aid the same as Standard First Aid? The drilling contractors pay for their employees recerts along with H2S Alive. Standard First Aid with CPR for the first time is a two day course. Recert is one.

They're different. I obtained Standard First aid with CPR – C, which was required for a job I almost got, but didn't in the end as I had a 24 hour suspension on my driving record. It was a two day course.
Occupational First Aid Level 1 seems to be just a one day course, so even more basic I guess.
Level 2 is a 36 hour course, and Level 3 is a 70 hour course.
So even though Standard First aid with CPR - C is more in depth than OFA Level 1, I think it has something to with WorkSafeBC not viewing Standard First Aid the same way it views OFA.
I guess it's up to the employer to decide what 'version' they'd prefer it seems...

That sounds like an EMR in Alberta and Saskatchewan. That course can get you a band-aid job on a rig. You get paid $250-300 a day to sleep.

I need to get that surgically welded one of these days... Then the problem will be fixed. The problem is intermittent though, so it's no problem until it decides to become a problem...

I was going to say that such a procedure might have a negative impact on your sex life but, seeing as your sex life is itself intermittent, you should be good to go.

Of course I have. Two Doktors, infact. One at the Walk-In to diagnose, and another at the ER to slice & dice the problem! Ketamine is a mind-blowing anesthetic, by the way!
That said, only a specialist can weld the problem up for good. Basically one little blood vessel that feeds my occasional problem needs to get soldered shut, and that is that!

I just have to find a Doktor here, I guess any Doktor would do, and get a referral from him to see a specialist that can do the procedure. I don't think GP's handle procedures like this.
All the towns are small around here, so not sure if I'd get sent to a specialist in Trail, or maybe even Kelowna? Not sure yet...

I think part of the problem is, is that they contracted that part of the maintenance out to who know's who... So now you get an outhouse with shit smeared all over the seats and walls.
With me hired as Park Ranger, I will ensure my facilities remain clean! It's not hard douching down a shitter with a bleach soaked mop. Outhouses don't need to shine... They just need to be douched down properly with a mop, and have toilet paper replaced on the spools!
I could do this job! Might be fun even, to wander around the back country here for the Summer, and get paid for it! Apparently I need courses to do this job though...
