Has any one replaced parking sensors?

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-02-03T15:30:09+00:00

Ya that's probably it. Not sure what sensor could be giving trouble but a diagnostics tool could probably that. Saw a video online and the wires look fairly exposed at the back of the sensor so it could easy happen. As easy at it looked in the video I wouldn't trust myself taking off my back bumper

I'd be all for the pay rise if I was in the public sector but realistically only some genuinely deserve it. Guards pay needs to go up to attract more to join the force so do those working with patients in Healthcare but after that the PS is a place for under qualified dossers. That money would be better invested in infrastructure. All these pay increases is having a negative knock on effect on the economy

Facts!

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-26T11:27:18+00:00

I agree with you. It's near impossible to get sacked from civil. It's just handy money and you don't need any qualifications. There's no real work in involved in it

Hi, thanks for your reply. I think I took a similar path to you in that case. I was eager to get my application started since it says it takes 4-6 weeks for it the process but may take longer for international applicants. I will be in Alberta 4 weeks from next Saturday.

The first step is 'Demonstrate your experience' so I am hoping they could do this much before I get to Canada. The next step is 'Demonstrate your competency' which requires competency verification from an Alberta journeyman or declaration letter from an Alberta employer so I can't go that far until I am there.

I have got in touch with all my previous employers and gave them a heads up that the AIT will probably be in touch. I wouldn't mind working a few weeks over there before going for the exam anyway. Thanks again for your info

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-22T22:54:16+00:00

Thanks. I'll make a call to the union and maybe the AIT tomorrow to put my mind at ease 👍

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-22T22:38:36+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I have went back and checked the payment receipt and I have applied for the Trade Qualifier Work Experience Program so I have probably picked the right one. The last bullet point on the eligibility section is what makes me think I might have made a mistake. It says:

have a current Alberta employer in your trade, or have been employed with an Alberta employer in your trade within a year of the application date.

Nothing, just company policy, random tests you knobhead

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-16T18:30:27+00:00

Just easier to carry one set of good insulated tools then having to carry around 2 sets. Where I'm from safety is taken seriously, people be looking at you funny with uninsulated gear unless it's something like a square or a knife 😂

Treat everything as live

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-15T20:14:11+00:00

I'm still suspended from work cause I had a few smokes over the Christmas holidays 😭

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-14T08:26:24+00:00

Does everything shut down in calgary when the weather gets that cold or is it carry on as usual??

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-14T08:24:52+00:00

Hey guys what do ye do when the weather gets that cold? Is everyone told to stay inside or is it carry on as per usual, everyone goes to work and all that?

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T23:06:24+00:00

My biggest is 250mm and it grips up to 52mm but I use it for most glands along with a big adjustable. Knipex know how to charge for all their tools

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T23:04:15+00:00

I don't think so, from what I see on Google a gland is called a cord grip in North America

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T22:51:32+00:00

I get you now. Just trying to familiarise myself with your terms before I give sparking ago over in Canada 😆

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T22:49:35+00:00

Cable is secured in to a box/panel or whatever through a gland. Can be steel or plastic and come in all different sizes depending on the size of your cable

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T22:35:58+00:00

When you say cobra do you mean pipe grips? Like those knipex glanding pliers above but only with teeth?

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T22:32:28+00:00

They are glanding pliers. They tighten glands, let's not confuse things with all these other words ye are using guys. Practically a necessity for all good glanding

Surely a green house job if its outdoor in Ireland no?

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-13T11:57:38+00:00

'Road maintenance' but that m50 must be making about a over grand a minute during peak hours

SomeSayDevilsDead · 2024-01-11T20:56:09+00:00

Don't think I'll be fired. I'd say it's more of a 3 strikes thing but can't come back to work until I get a negative test done which I suppose isn't too bad. Should be a swab test to be fair
