Nova Scotia BS Thread

Your first year at Saputo you get 1 day for every month you worked. I started at the tail end of a fiscal year.. meaning I get one day.. Plus two "personal days" We have 10 stat holidays and Saputo gives us 12, so the other two are vacation days as well. Whoot lol

 

Some pictures from the weekend!

It was hard to get pictures at the fun parts.. But most of the pictures are from us checking out the pipeline and the one of the Ford broken down(ripped his skid plate off) is in a trail that leads from old guysborough to Miller road which leads back to OG.

 

Anyone up for the pipeline Saturday? Provided the weather isn't a shitstorm.

 

Sexy

 

What is?

 

The pics

 

Next time I'll do better. Get some action shots haha

 

If the weather is decent saturday I am going to attempt to remove/clean my IM and injectors then swap out the fuel filter.

 

Solid plan. Supposed to be 1-3mm of rain I guess (as of now).

You getting a misfire?

and I just stared at my computer screen for a solid 2 minutes trying to figure out what "IM" stands for.. still can't figure it out

 

intake manifold

no misfire, just time to clean everything out. The fuel filter is under the IM and so are the injectors so I figured I'd do it all at the same time.

 

Solid plan. Got a gasket for it? Or are you just gonna chance it?

 

I have some gaskets for it

 

Stuck at work til 3 or 4.. then back to work tomorrow for 12, and I work Sunday.

Damn this is stupid.

 

That's better than me anyway. We get 5 stats and 2 weeks (4%)

 

Do you guys work on holidays? the only one we shut down for is christmas

 

We get paid for Christmas Day, New Year's Day, Good Friday, Canada Day and Labour Day. Anything else is unpaid.

 

She well that kind of sucks.. I make double time and a half those days if I work.. which I usually do haha

 

That's in the labour code. You don't actually get double time and a half. You get a paid holiday, then time and a half for working on a holiday.
This matters when, say, you generally work 8 hour shifts then on a holiday you work 10 hours. You would get 8 hours holiday pay, then 10 hours at time and a half for working.

I'm off unpaid on other non-stat holidays like Victoria Day, Thanksgiving, Natal Day, Boxing Day, etc.

We do get a new stat holiday next year in February!

 

97% sure i saw barker14 on the 101 this afternoon.

 

You are correct! I would get the 8 stat holiday hours even if I didn't work, but if I do my 8 hour shift, I make 54 dollars an hour for those 8 hours. I'm sure at some point in my life I'll hate working the same schedule I do now, But I came complain. Right now the money is worth it!
