Skytrain Attendant
 
Anyone know how much they get paid?

FatalCloud 05-02-2009 07:04 AM
i know skytrain 'police'/security get paid over $30/hr. but you probably mean something else with attendant.

Alby 05-02-2009 05:08 PM
are you talking about the ones that just wander from station to station and ride on the train itself with a blue vest/jacket on? the ones that stand there and check tickets?

don't know an exact amount, but if they are hired under translink or any subsidiary, a good ballpark would be probably 13-18$

$13-18?
Not for a corporate quasi government institution.

They pay AT LEAST $18/hour.

Crown Corporation is the term you're looking for.

BC Transit is a Crown corporation charged with providing public transportation throughout the province, outside of the Greater Vancouver Regional District (GVRD). Within the GVRD, transit services are provided by TransLink. BC Transit's web site is located at http://www.bctransit.com.

You are correct Sir.

why do you ask how much they get paid? you trying to get a job there? they are hiring?

bsftong 05-04-2009 03:00 PM
I know Protrans was doing some last minute hiring for the Canada Line...approx. $20/hr I believe.

lubbyda 05-10-2009 01:17 AM
how hard is to get a jjob there. Yea probably harder since we are in recession, but generally... is it next to impossible?

Alby 05-11-2009 01:28 AM
im guessing the only chance you might have a good try at getting a position is knowing someone from the inside that can somewhat pull some strings or refer your name.

willystyle 05-11-2009 09:53 PM
I've worked for Translink, so it shouldn't be too hard for me. :)

lubbyda 05-14-2009 12:09 PM
so exactly what does that mean for the rest of us...?

Preemo 05-14-2009 12:39 PM
