Yeah snow, that pipe is wicked expensive. not the easiest to work with either. If your company is willinbg to apprentice you as a pipefitter doing those gas stations, you are a lucky man, i don't know how it is out there, but here, thye make an insane amount of money. One of my uncles Petro can's the guy worked for 5 days, no OT, after all his materials my uncle figured he made about $15 000. I want to apprentice as a pipefitter before doing any of my other tickets......

Are you saying that the guy made 3 grand a day as a pipefitter Joe? If so, that guy must have had his own company and worked alone eh?
I know pipefitters in northern alberta do not bad at all.

yeah thats what he made, doing gas stations, as far as his own business, its him and a friend, this guy does the interior and the other guy stays on the island. I don't know if this was a really good job for him though, he made it sound like it wasn't all that out of the ordinary.

And my winter wages, well yeah, a bit more then that too, would be hard going downwards like that for me. I could handle 3 grand a day though, wow!
