A typical work day would start at 6:30 in the morning. You would check the oil levels on the loaders and the skid steer. Upon completions of that you would start all the equipment and let them warm up. Around 7 o'clock was about the time we actually fired up the aggregate plant. We would usually run around 500 tons an hour depending on the weather and other factors. If an piece of equipment were to go down on the aggregate plant everyone was required to stop what they were doing and help out on repairing the plant as this would cost the company money not having the plant running. The repairs were always done in a timely fashion. They were sometimes when we didn't stop for breaks or lunches as we were busy working and you would just eat when you could get the chance. If they usual scale lady was not present at work I would hop into the scale head and organize and operate the scale for the time being. The work day would  be done at 6:30 in the evening so working long hours in nothing new to me. I leaned that if working as a team most things can get dealt with in a timely manner and it just brings a sense of pride knowing that you're operating like a team and everyone is doing they're fair share of work. The hardest part of the job was balancing your life and work because you are constantly working long hours and spending time with friends is just as important as working. The most enjoyable part of the job was knowing you got the job done well and everybody was happy at the end of the day.

Started at 6:30am and usually work 12 to 14 hours shifts. Learn how to operate some equipment such as skid steer, water truck, rollers. Did a lot of shovelling, labour tasks  and driving crew trucks. My foreman was a great guy who would take the time to teach everyone but also put his foot down when we had to work to get the job done. Hardest part was seeing other workers get higher pay and better position just cause the head supervisors like them. Wasn't base on skills or work ethic, just if they like you. I really enjoy work outside and with my hands. Also like the laughing and joking around part of my crew.

during the day my job is to help with basic tasks of paving, such as shoveling gravel, apply tar, apply and remove marking of caution and other materials and equipment for the job. All work is done in teams, is a job that takes many hours of work non-stop until the end completely, that is tired, but it is rewarding to see the finished work. working outdoors is nice. I get a bit of know-how in handling heavy machinery, I was trained in security measures and procedures of paving.

Lloydminster branch has tons of “family members “ working there. Brothers, girlfriends, wives, sons, etc. You can work as hard as you want, be a faithful and knowledgeable employee but will never be recognized as long as they have their family working there. Very dishonest management. Gave me a decent paycheque so I guess that’s a positive.

Great crews and foreman's, upper management could use a little work. overall good place to work. Normally we work 12 hour days but this year the hours got cut to 10 hours a day. Less hours have pros and cons. hardest part of the job is all the physical labour but that comes with a territory. if you aren't ready to work hard than this isn't the job for you.

Was an awesome group of guys I was working with. The foremen I had been with were awesome. The management is awful. They promise you great things but then you'll be gone in no time. So long as they can make it through through their season, they'll can you quick.

Good company to work for. Long days. Lots of hours. Pay was good for the work I was asked to do. Not much room for advancement I felt as even though I had scores of tickets and training on equipment there was no talk of being able to work my way up into operating equipment for them whatsoever.
