Hi everyone! My hubby is leaving here (Moncton, NB) tomorrow to go to Alberta... to find a job as either a floorhand, roustabout, roughneck, leasehand with an oil company. He is looking for somewhere with a camp however, since he won't have a place!
Does anyone have any suggestions??
Thanks,
Tammy

My suggestion to anyone moving to Alberta is get a job and a place to live lined up before you make the move. Finding a job here is easy, finding a place to live is hard, finding a cheap place to live is impossible.

hello eastcoaster. I'm wondering how your husband has made out looking for an oil job as i'm hoping to do the same thing myself as there is nothing left in ontario and also moncton as i lived there for years.

Hither and yon
if he is a floorhand,roustabout,roughneck or leasehand he is going to work on a drilling rig.
Drilling contractors provide camps for there crews or pay subsistance if a town is nearby.
The drilling rigs are a bit slow right now and he will be lucky to get work at this time.

People please,please do not come out to Alberta without lining up some interviews, places to stay, friends to stay with, job offers etc etc.

Honour our Fallen
I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK
I sleep all night and I work all day.

Chorus:
He's a lumberjack and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays I go shopping and have buttered scones for tea

Mounties:
He cuts down trees, he eats his lunch
He goes to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays he goes shopping and has buttered scones for tea.

Chorus:
He's a lumberjack and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I like to press wild flowers.
I put on women's clothing and hang around in bars.

Mounties:
He cuts down trees, he skips and jumps
He likes to press wild flowers.
He puts on women's clothing and hangs around in bars?!

Chorus:
He's a lumberjack and he's OK
He sleeps all night and he works all day.

I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra.
I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear Papa!!

Mounties:
I cut down trees, I wear high heels?!
Suspenders...and a bra?!...

Just the Lumberjack:
I wish I'd been a girlie, just like my dear Papa!!
