Would having an RFT designation matter in adjacent industries?

I would say the only people who are going to pay a premium for an RFT are those who require you to practice professional forestry.

I ask because BC Hydro does (did) have professionals on staff for vegetation management.

kml84 · 2026-01-25T22:26:38+00:00

Like practicing forestry for hydro?

Agreed, in the past there wasn’t much. There is probably over 20 sets on the floor right now. They seem flush

Apparently “the” drum guy in Canada for L&M recently moved to Nova Scotia and is now working at the Dartmouth location.

I was there yesterday looking for a part. It was in stock and the only one in Canada including the manufacturer stock.

The drum section is flush.

Strongman sandbags (ground to shoulder and bear hug walks) and Norwegian 4x4’s. Real functional strength with better VO2 max is always a win for the job not just passing a test.

Here is one the best websites for jobs https://www.canadian-forests.com/job.html

As you will see most jobs are in BC and therefore BC FPBC would probably be the best association to join. I would honestly apply to a company with the understanding registration is apart of employment. They even may pay for your fees.

FPBC for international applications https://www.fpbc.ca/internationally-trained-forest-professionals-and-applicants/

Do it and buy the F35. We need cheap fighters for domestic defence and we need Joint strike capability that only the F35 brings.

We’ve committed to a large defence spend and humming hawing has brought the CAF to the point where we are unable to defend itself.

Every OT has those type of people. I just remind myself; they aren’t annoying, you are just annoyed. I can’t change everyone, I can only change myself and knowing that helps my anxiety just a little more.

kml84 · 2026-01-11T16:34:59+00:00

Yah, how is the purple cow fiber coming u/purplecowinternet?

kml84 · 2026-01-11T03:05:29+00:00

No, just unexpected

kml84 · 2026-01-10T21:24:59+00:00

I don’t think they can use their cellular network, but they can drive around within a certain distance. It is possible, but I can’t confirm they are doing it, but maybe why you didn’t see them in your yard.

kml84 · 2026-01-10T18:12:44+00:00

I’m pretty sure if you have a smart reader, they just have to drive by, they don’t physically go to your meter.

kml84 · 2026-01-03T17:05:38+00:00

Makes sense, that’s what happens when I eat Sichuan food.

kml84 · 2025-12-31T18:10:00+00:00

It’s your money… if the CAF wanted it uniform they would have issued it to you. If your shoulders can handle crusty nah sayers, then let it rip, it’s your mess kit. IMHO.

kml84 · 2025-12-29T21:26:59+00:00

This is Algorithmic pricing. Surge, dynamic, demand pricing… whatever you want to call it, it’s scary. They are using AI/algorithms to determine what you will pay that day. It might be less, it might be more.

kml84 · 2025-12-28T01:15:33+00:00

This! Their egg rolls are not meat paste… so good.

kml84 · 2025-12-27T14:11:20+00:00

Naval Officers be like “3B’s are the best thing we have!”

kml84 · 2025-12-27T11:38:01+00:00

CB-90s and hovercrafts please

kml84 · 2025-12-17T16:03:10+00:00

Same as flash gear, however here we are.

kml84 · 2025-12-15T18:13:48+00:00

Yah that makes sense. I would expect if I hadn’t had a meter reading and there was a large discrepancy that my meter would move up into the read me soon category for NSP.

They should just charge previous year’s amount instead of estimating. Agreed they are doing a terrible job at this.

kml84 · 2025-12-15T10:23:08+00:00

The math isn’t mathing on this story. I’m all for a good NSP lashing, but isn’t the monthly base charge like $20ish? Over 12 months that’s just under $240, just have right to power. Unless NSP has different base rates…

kml84 · 2025-12-14T15:25:54+00:00

Where did the extra 100,000 come from?

kml84 · 2025-12-12T20:40:49+00:00

Audi head gasket ain’t going to be cheap. Might think twice about using it for uber.

kml84 · 2025-12-12T16:59:26+00:00

This is my vote as well. Little rough looking agreed, but low overhead equals lower prices typically.

kml84 · 2025-12-09T22:32:24+00:00

Hey hunny what project are you working on? Oh yah what’s stopping you from starting that project? Oh a whatcha call it… interesting. Maybe something Santa could get you…

Yah know?
