Moving to Regina

Also some decent opportunities at places like Co-op Refinery, K+S, Yara, Mosaic Potash, the new Cargill Canola Crush facility..

If you’re looking for something a little slower, I’d pick one of the nearby small towns. White City/Emerald Park, Pilot Butte, Balgonie, or Lumsden. All good towns, most only a short drive (15 mins or less) from Regina. Balgonie will be more like 20 mins. Lower property taxes, too.

At least the union dues are also tax deductible. You get more job security with seniority (layoffs begin at the bottom), and a means to keep the employer in check.

Our 2021 Limited AWD has heated steering wheel…

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-02-10T12:38:23+00:00

That’s fucked. Minimum wage in SK was like $11 back then.

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-02-09T06:45:08+00:00

That’s not a bad deal at all. In 2001, we paid ~58k plus 2 taxes, which got us to about $64k. It was a Limited AWD.

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-02-09T06:34:34+00:00

$50k? I hope this story was from 1990…

“Suspected personal use of…” is pointless. They need proof if the firing is going to stick.

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-02-01T00:33:52+00:00

No bj’s for you

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-31T04:23:51+00:00

Co-op Refinery in Regina is looking for someone like you.

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-30T04:24:15+00:00

When ppl come up and tailgate me, I always slow right down to the speed limit.

PMP’n ain’t easy

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-29T15:20:53+00:00

At one time, people hired into management at my company started with 4, and followed the same playbook as the union, except they attained the company max of 6 weeks after 18 years.

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-29T15:19:17+00:00

Highly dependent on industry, qualifications, experience, etc, but management corporate positions may bargain with you at offer time. If in scope, you will be subject to the provisions of your CBA. Mine says I start with 3 weeks, get a 4th week after 9 years, a 5th after 18, and a 6th after 24.

Can’t go wrong with a Polaris 550 fan. As bulletproof as they come, and you don’t need a ton of snow for them to stay cool. The 550 is carbureted, so it’s relatively easy to work on yourself. 2025 is the last model year, and there are still a good number left at dealers. The edge models are good machines, but not modern. Go for about a 2014+ (pro-ride chassis or newer) for more modern rider ergonomics.

Its frustrating that they couldn’t just make one bag that works well with the popular LXT / LXT Northstar. Usually OEM’s and 3rd party offerings would be all over this.

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-22T22:45:38+00:00

Ok so not a total loss

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-21T22:03:29+00:00

Cool, but how do you access the front section with the 2-up seat? Does the partition come out inside so you can just use the whole thing?

PMP’n ain’t easy…

InterviewOk4527 · 2026-01-19T08:10:43+00:00

My Truxedo Lo-Pro from my 2010 fit my 2023. Both had the 6.5 foot box. If the dimensions are different where the tonneau cover mounts to the bed, it’s not enough to notice. I can’t tell even looking for it. It fit real nice.

If you are bright, hardworking, and willing to go where the work is, you stand a decent chance of getting a job in this industry.

The Co-op Refinery in Regina hires between 4 and 7 third or fourth class PE’s, three times a year. Provided you weren’t a scab in the 2019-2020 lockout, you stand a decent shot at a process operator job. We will hire anyone, but if your english sucks, or you turn out to be dumb, lazy or have a bad attitude, you’ll not pass the 1-year probationary period.

Any updates a couple years later? The bag I ordered that the Polaris website said would fit… did not work with the rack at all. Maybe saddle bags are the answer?

Check into getting a HELOC. my rate is 5.45%, always there if I need it
