For the past 3 years, I've been fixing/drilling holes in these:
And doing this:
When it's really slow, they give us stupid easy fiberglass work from these:
Or when it's even slower(ie. now), they send us to work on P-3's replacing wings/empennage mounts:

1 or 2 year "Aircraft Maintenance Engineer" Transport Canada approved trade school course (Mechanical and Electrical sub-trades are 2 years, I took the 1 year Structures course because it was half the length and typically pays the same)
$1000 online course through ICS. Although, the only people I know with this course are either ex-british military guys who want some sort of way to tie in their training with civil work, or guys who have taken one of the 1-2 year courses and want to get qualified in more than one of the sub-trades. I doubt someone could get a job with just this course and no prior experience.
Military experience. I originally wanted to go this route, but they weren't accepting applications. Now I don't want to give up my house, E30's, GF's job to likely move to Cold Lake.

He also kept asking why someone local didn't just go to the guys house and break his kneecaps, as they would do in Romania. He couldn't understand how us Americans are so laid back about shit like this.
