james in Whitehorse, Yukon 32 months ago	Andy Martin in Coatbridge, United Kingdom said: Jmaes in Edmunton said he was making $2300 a week does anyone know where this is or is he talking shxt i am definetly not talking crap about making 2300 a week. it is at an sagd oil refinery in the fortmcmurray oil sands working for a union named Christian Labour Association of Canada (CLAC) i was getting flown in fly out. 20 days on 8 days off. 12 hours a day. made a good 120 grand last year and still took 2 months off. pay gets even better with other unions in canada if you are local to the area. i dont know how they did it with hiring other people from overseas but they were hiring pipefitters and iornworkers from overseas. ive met some from the uk, philipines, none from the states though. check them out www.clac.ca send them a resume i guess. i dont know how they do it. not too much work yet cause of the downturn in oil lately, %75 of the jobs for this year are on hold. it has gotten better here though. any other questions dont hesitate to email me at jameshoward@live.ca i dont mind helping other sparkys find work if i can help - Was this comment helpful?

Spucky in Wakefield, Massachusetts 32 months ago	KBR is the worst company to work for in theatre as far as electrical work is concerned. With a 54% attrition rate for sparkies what else would you expect. 13 hour days, 7 days a week, and being stuck on a Grounding and Bonding crew is ridiculous. Only the very desperate stay. Anyone looking for work should look at any of the other contractors over there. Why? 6 - 10 hour days and one day off per week is one very good reason, not to mention, more pay from other contractors. KBR hires fast n furiously, so if you're in a jam by all means have at it, but at least realize what you're in for before you go out there. When a SCW starts snapping gear breakers on and off while you're changing a main disconnect dont say you haven't been warned. - Was this comment helpful? Yes (3) / No Reply - Report abuse

I just turned out in local 46 Seattle, and have been considering working overseas. I've seen several posts warning about KBR, but nothing so informative. - Was this comment helpful?

johnny z in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin 31 months ago	gamesparky in Bay City, Michigan said: Just ran into this site tonight, (actually, this morning). Am laid-off at this point in time and have considered overseas work. I'm on Book 2 at a few dozen Locals including Casper and Cheyenne. Have climbed into the top ten at Minot, N.D., but that doesn't mean anything. They have pretty much all of their own hands working and when a call comes in for a commercial rate job at 40 hours with no per deim it goes all the way through Book 2 and everybody gets a strike. I signed a month ago and was number 166 when I signed. I climbed over 100 spots within three days. Looking for work at Coal Creek working 5/10's at 32.64 with 35 bucks a day per deim. The commercial jobs are all 40 hours at less than 26 bucks an hour. It's a losing proposition to take the job. Hoping I don't roll off the books before some more calls come in for Coal Creek. I only have one strike but that doesn't mean anything. They will probably be needing another 20 hands for that job. Minnkota and Leland Olds are pretty well manned up and will only need a few more from time to time. Am licensed in Michigan, Wyoming, Washington and West Virginia. I also have a reciprocal license in Montana. Work looks to be a possibility in Helena, MT. They have most of the ground work done for a wind farm and have 70 windmills to put up. They also have a gas-fired plant that will going up just west of Butte. I you have anything on overseas work let me know. In the meantime I'll keep my ear to the ground. thanks brother for the info - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

Daniel Aguilar in Apo 31 months ago	Well, I can say that KBR is almost completed with the Log 3 contract and they received almost nothing in Afghanistan. The north and south of Afghanistan is split up between two contractors. Flour and Dyna Corp. KBR is out of Kuwait witch Dyna Corp has taken over. Who knows, They can drop the ball and KBR might have to pick it up and run with it.Most likely the KBR employees with just change lanyards and new management. They are still hiring electricians once a month due to the fact that they have one a day leaving,due to their constant the indecision and threats.There will be good work in in the future in Afghanistan and wish you all the best. And to the disgruntle IBEW folks. If it wasn't for the union you would be making scratch my friend with no representation. They gave us the start and it's up to us how we act while being a brother. Wish I could help you more than that. Peace - Was this comment helpful? Yes (2) / No Reply - Report abuse
