kurtis Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hey guys, So i just finished having interviews at both cities this past week for job employment in the operations department. They both want to hire me now... I've done a tone of research on both cities but I still can't seem to figure out which one to choose. They are both roughly 6 months + out of the year. Pay is also the same. Has anyone worked for either city in the past or know people who do? They seem like both great cities to work for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Do you have a bullet proof vest? If not then I'd go with Pitt Meadows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AriGold Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 For me it would depend on where I live. Bridge bill would be $7.20 a day aka $1728 a year. Might want to do it based off that alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockingly, I've never been shot at People act like the entire place is like Compton with Bloods and Crips on every street corner or something Like any city it has it's 'bad' areas (largely the Northwest 'Whalley' and somewhat Newton areas) but I'd sure as hell rather spend time in South Surrey, Crescent beach, Port Kells, Sullivan Station etc than questionable parts of Richmond, Burnaby, Vancouver etc. All the cities in Greater Van have far more in common than differences IMO. And they all have largely targeted gang violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to single out a predominantly minority area for this. The entire Lower Mainland is a cultural wasteland. Vancouverites need to get off the high horse.

Dion Phaneuf Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Pitt Meadows since you live in PoCo. If the City of Surrey pays for your toll then I'd easily pick Surrey. Probably a better chance to move up, newer facilities, and equipment (from what I've seen) if it's a labour job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, because innocent people are getting shot in the streets daily in Surrey. Whats happeneing is happening in a very small area of Surrey and is gang related.
