Woohoo!!!!! I finally got the job I've been striving for for the last year! Time for an easy 120-140 g's a year while getting paid to continue my Power Engineering education. I would've probably gotten it sooner except I got hurt in March and had to take 6 months for rehab. Fucking eh! I'm so happy, time to amp up the engine rebuild on the GTR.

^ grats man, success is dope

now wait till your first pay day and see how much the communist republic of british columbia takes away

^less than any other province in Canada except for alberta!



congrats russ! hows the recovery going by the way?

Love those albertans

it's especially nice if you live in Grande Prairie or farther up north...w00tw00t for northern living allowance (teh suck for everything else haha).

Anyways...Albertans are about to be pwnt by Saskatchewan when it comes to low taxes, though.

Recovery has come along really nicely. Have full range of motion in the damaged areas and full strength back. No real long lasting damage except for the scar tissue and weird sensations that come with skin grafts.
And +1 on northern living allowance and southern trip expenses (thats right we get paid to party down south)

I saw that on your and kate's msn but spaced on saying congrats, so congrats :)

got back from Hawaii on Sat morning. It was absolutely BEAUTIFUL there, I am sad to be back, lol... I think I've found my annual vacation spot though. Did a dolphin encounter which included a belly ride and me kissing the dolphin. I learned how to surf, rented a car and drove around the whole island (stumbling upon a small surfing competition), and snorkled at Hanuama Bay.

whats the deal with all of our user titles on revscene?? hahaha

lol not sure but some of them are kinda funny.

SG decided to add more and update them last week. Look at them all, lol

Kinkor sores are the worst

I did look at them all, theyre funny shit. "diagonally parked in a parallel universe"haha

still tanking... oil down to 60.77

friend of mine at work just bought a new truck for work. his van blew a head gasket on monday. min 2k repair on a van thats 15 years old aint worth it.

he ended up picking an 09 chev silverado 1500 crew cab 4x4 5.3L v8 6spd auto. sticker price was 45k. got it down to 35k. and this truck had everything from power seats, power folding mirrors, blue tooth, tow package etc.

lucky for him i was there, i got them to close the deal with throwing a free undercoating. they didnt seem to happy about that :)

what a sweet truck!

man...that's a HUGE price drop...Chev must be getting desperate as hell haha

dodge was down to 29k for a 2008 1500 quad cab 4x4. but the chev blew the dodge outa the water in every way feature wise for the price.

on top of that, chev has 5 year 160k vs dodge 100k.

i just bought the sweetest tool i have ever see. 100% waterproof camera with a brightness adjustable light and zoom. fits in 3/4" holes or bigger. its got like a 2.5" screen aswell, not shown in pic.

it seems the only companies that arent giving away trucks is ford and toyota

dodge still has a flat $14,000 off the sticker price of any RAM now.

and if you buy a Nissan Titan, you get a free Versa!

just spent 4 days in Kamloops...man it makes me miss BC...land in Edmonton...everything's white...boo

send some this way. I really want snow so the hill will be nice and covered, lol

Me too. I can't wait for the hill to open. I bought a pass this year and I have to go extra-often to make up for the 6 weeks I'll be in Victoria doing my gasfitting apprenticeship.

my mom bought my brother and I a pass, and this is the only thing to look forward to for the rest of this year (other than my 2 weeks paid christmas closure) since Hawaii's done :(
If you can't find someone to go with shoot me a text or msn
opening day is next weekend :S I don't think I'll be going until closer to December. Was thnking about heading up on free day, but not sure cause I don't want to book time off work.

We got a lil bit of white stuff here, will be gone soon.

Side note we are moving a rig up to the North West Territories, yay. Picked up a load from edmonton back in Grande Prairie to help my Lie book I mean Log Book. Not sure how far we are going but thats a long treck.
