    There's a shortage of skilled trades across the board right now. Anyone interested in working as a carpenter for our company, you're hired.

    Prospect: *cleanly flips the hammer and catches it by the handle*

    Boss: get the fvck outta here, we got enough guys doing that all day

    If the bearing fits, then all the associated hardware fits.

    Framing or finishing carpentry? If it weren’t Toronto I’d be interested in hearing more.

    Form work. It can be physical but as with anything, you get issued to it and it's not so bad. Toronto is where most of the work is but we do have projects all over. You can always request closer to you and they will accommodate if possible. They are good that way.

    When you think Toyota can't do worse, hold my beer
    I can only imagine how poor 4Runner/Tacoma front ends going to look like

    Companies always look at experience before schooling. Academia

    YOU,
    You, the person could take an object made from the core material of a neutron star and break it before tea time.

    Is going the get his G2!!!!??

    I only have ONE word....




    Once you have your G2,

    Get your HVAC and/or pressure vessel licences' and you never have to worry about working again.

    Lord I feel sorry for the company that hands you the keys to a company truck!

    Mind you if you have all your tickets,they will apologize for giving you a truck so fragile when it rattles and wheezes back into the lot.

    You don't me holding your beer while looking at that because mine went flat when that picture popped up.

    Well at least you will have respite knowing that you owned the last generation of good looking Tacomas. And manual transmissions...

    That thing thing is approaching Aztec level of ugliness, just nope on so many levels.

    Who’s here likes the least their stock shocks? Looking for some. I would be pulling mine for rebuild which includes replacing all the parts, because Elka decided to change design and discontinued old parts, so it’s all needs to be replaced. Including shafts, eyelets etc… Can’t just fix what’s broken. :annoyed:
