So I got a new job
As of June 4th, I will be an employee of Toyota Motors Manufacturing Canada, assembling Corollas and Matrix vehicles at the plant in Cambridge.
It starts at just under $28/hr with a $1.65 shift premium for working afternoons and the odd weekend shift. It is only a contract position until December, but I'm told when the new plant opens in Woodstock and if Im a good worker, its very possible I could go there full-time. They can keep me in another contract position in Cambridge or toss me, but I hope not.
The commute from Hamilton will probably suck, but Im very exited anyway. The extra cash will certainly help pay some debts off and I need a new challenge. My current job at the Casino may not be around for ever.

I've been waiting about a year and a half for it. I'm told that with the 2008 Corolla/Matrix (a brand new design) production starting very soon, they wil be hiring more people constantly. Next year when the Woodstcok plant opens, they will need 2000 more employees. Its a waiting game. If you go to the TMMC webpage, you can check the staus of your appliction if you have one on file.

Nice job.
So I guess I won't be seeing you for much longer.
I hope I get in there too.
The whole casino thing is really going under.

A tech job would be good though. They get paid pretty decent and the machines (new or old) will still need repairs.

It's pathetic.
In about 3 or 4 months I won't have a job anymore due to paper and a 500 000$$ machine that barely even works.
.Among many other things.

I have a friend that works at the casino in Point Edward. Ever since the no smoking ban came in the business went down a lot. Then of course her hrs got cut to almost half. Now with the paper machines and her hrs got cut even more.
