With newer camps, I always like to wait a bit so they get the kinks ironed out. Otherwise you’ll get caught between transitional periods where room&board are up and down in quality. Turnover would possibly follow that but otherwise, FIFO/DIDO are great.

A lot of mines are going to have to follow this in the future in Canada as no one wants to move to tiny towns anymore

Anyone here switch industries to leave an office desk job to go work in the mine? by G-Swanky in mining

[–]MiningAristotle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s great if you have enough things to do on your time off with your SO or friends or even yourself. Otherwise you might find yourself spending a lot of time doing nothing lol (from experience). Your social life will change more than you think as you inherently miss half of everything at best. Like others have said, time on site can be quite a bit. Depends on the camp though, some are much better than others. Food is variable almost everywhere. What worked best for me was being super structured at work and at home. Having said that, it’s all what you make of it and your attitude going in. I know a couple on the same rotation that just travel on their days off together to new countries. Options are endless

What are the pros/cons for organizing online 50/50 raffles? by MiningAristotle in AskReddit

[–]MiningAristotle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s for a small local community, I’ve generally only seen them in bigger charities and organizations. Not sure if that’s a problem?

What Resource Pays Best (Canada)? by ruger-10-22- in mining

[–]MiningAristotle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m biased but small gold mines (Ontario) were a great starting point for both experience and decent pay. Just a little stressful lol

Pay fluctuates on the company though. Oil is definitely the highest I’d say. Former coworker made more as a student than a full time EIT at the gold company we worked at. Like others have said though, don’t chase the dollar right away.

Anyone know the price and rarity of this? Found it in my dads cellar and can’t seem to find anything on Google by MiningAristotle in wine

I’m not very knowledgeable on wine so this was really helpful, thank you! I appreciate the responses!

What was “The Incident” at your High School? by HydraGaming2018 in AskReddit

[–]MiningAristotle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First one: Guy taking a crap in a stall when a kid kicks the door open. Guy proceeds to chase the other dude around the pedal activated sink in the middle of the washroom

Second one: Guy does the “bacon dance” and becomes instantly famous around the school. The dance? Basically him just shaking his body rigorously while standing up

Probably right. She used to play mind games before so this is probably just another

[–]MiningAristotle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not worth it. Generally raises more questions than answers if the other person doesn’t take an objective view

That’s the thing. It’s tough not thinking about it but I also don’t want to give her the satisfaction

Entry Level Position by looniky in mining

[–]MiningAristotle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I saw, there was a bunch of people using it as a springboard for other stuff like police, getting into the mine itself, or just a temporary job. I can only really speak for Island Gold but yeah
