if your a labourer living in Camp you would be lucky to get 25 an hour with LOA

if your living outside of camp, most places dont pay LOA to labourers, so living in edmonton, etc. paying stupid prices for rent, and food, etc. wouldnt even be worth it for most people

if your living at home, or have a decent rent situation, you would be better off having an 18/20 an hour job here than being a labourer there with no LOA

the only saving grace is the OT you work, but you'll lose that in tax in the end

the only place your going to make anything as a labourer is actual rig work, not at refineries in the oil sands etc
