Hey just looking for some discussion and career advice I guess. Applied and got an interview with a commercial and restaurant equipment company. Originally, I was hoping to get into commercial hvac but haven't had any luck getting interviews. Doing some research it seems kitchen equipment doesn't fall under HVAC but maybe more refrigeration as I read there's a cold side and hot side. I do have a little bit of residential hvac experience and my gas license in Ontario, CA which is why I think I got the interview in the first place but am not currently in the field. Anyway not to drag this out but if there are any techs in here, reach out with your experience!

Anyone from Local 527 in here? I just applied and wrote the online aptitude test and did pretty good. Received an email saying a business agent would be in contact if I qualify for an interview, but they do intake on an as-needed basis. Just wondering if anyone can share their experience with their timeline and if they enjoyed the overall experience. I'll wait a couple days and call a rep at the union but just wondering if there's anyone here who could share some info or advice. The email also said to just call some of the contractors on their list and try to get in with them in the meantime - Any recommendations? Cheers

Hey just looking for some info about starting apprentice wages, work availability and anything else you wanna share about this area. Waiting to hear back from someone from the local, thought I'd reach out here too.

Trying to avoid having to search different places if anyone knows where to find some. Cheers.

Residential gas tech here and I'm thinking of taking the leap into refrigeration. Wondering if Costco has in house techs or just have contractors come in when needed. Saw the store near me is hiring maintenance but didn't say anything about refrigeration.

Looking for 6ft full private fence for our yard and possibly our neighbour's. Any companies or contractors you all would recommend?

And if anyone had theirs done this year would you mind sharing the price just so I have an idea what to expect. Would appreciate it.

Thanks!

The place on Southgate keeps dropping my calls and a few other places I tried are fully booked or I haven't heard back from then yet. Just the regular test would be ideal, anyone got any tips?

Bonus question: where is good to upload pics to share lol. Does this link work?

Received an email at 2:15am Sunday morning to register second dose so I booked an appt. Then I tried to go back in the portal and kept getting "connection not private" error. My unique ID was the same as the first time and booking looked the same as far as I could remember. Just wondering if I gave my data up to someone else...

Doing a lot of searching into doing something else other than my current $25/hr factory job. I'm looking for a career now and not interested in moving up the management chain. Refrigeration (I guess trades in general) has caught my eye. Mainly for the money.

0 experience, starting from scratch. Already 33 YO, with sore back and feet at the end of most days. 1 year old at home and our second on the way this summer. New build home to be finished at the end of the year as well (taking on mortgage). But there's no time like the present right??

Anyway I'm just looking for some advice or discussion about the work life balance at the start. I know it will be busy/demanding. Any insights on how fa

My 9 year old spayed "hound" mix has been experiencing incontinence for the last few months. Of course we've consulted with our vet who prescribed PPA (Proin). She did not take well to the PPA, had diarrhea, vomiting and continued incontinence. Took her off that, antibiotics to clear her up, then tried prescribed Stilbestrol (Estrogen). No side effects but continued incontinence. Vet recommended urine analysis to confirm no UTI, Kidney infection or diabetes which could be possible clauses. Test came back negative.

Now the vet is recommending an abdominal ultrasound where a specialist can assess her internal organs and then go from there - $868. Now, technically we can afford this and will l

Zehrs staff told me they don't carry it anymore/right now, didn't see at Food Basics and sold out at Longo's. Looking to grab some tonight or in the morning if possible. Thanks.
