[QUOTE="klein, post: 1129710, member: 23950"] I don't mind my current job, but it's on and off, because it's all sub-contracted out to us. I started out with Tassimo (Bosch), then went on a few weeks later to Homedepot, just finished Shoppers Drugmart (like a Walgreens in the US), and will do a re-line at Walmart in May. Besides that, I'm working every weekend for Diegeo (owner of Johnnie Walker, Crown Royal, Sterling Wines, Smirnoff and more), doing liquor sampling at a variety of stores. I don't need to work hard, dress in black dress pants and shoes, work in an a/c environment, etc. They even pay for travel time and km's driven, which I find is a huge bonus (you work over 8 hrs and travel time automatically becomes OT, too). Then the last week out of those 4 weeks I worked at Shoppers, was all out of town. Those days paid beween $350 and $375 net pay, due mostly to higher travel time and milage (paid at 38 cents/km tax-free). Now, I'm trying to become a Labatts sales person thru the same company, it's even better - they supply a new vehicle, pay registration, insurance, maintainence and even the gas. If not I'll be contracted out to Walmart in May (same pay). To put my pay in perspective, I earned over $3400 net-pay in the past 3 weeks at Shoppers, plus over another $1000 for the past 3 weekends, since they had to pay OT rate for those, too. But, now sitting at home waiting for a call to get a Monday-Friday job again. Seems I do have a good chance to do Kraft products soon, though, since that manager already contacted me - but we shall see. (I turned him down the first time - was a slight pay cut and cut in hrs, too). [/QUOTE]
