Yes tons of robotics work here in Ontario. Every warehouse going up has pickers and sorters, and there is a real dearth of skilled electricians and millwrights who can do this type of work.

Above rate and home every day, excellent pension and awesome benefits...my max i will pay for above and beyond MW and elec/instrumentation is 52.50 ph and call ins a re 4 hours pay, even if it takes 5 minutes to reset a breaker, one hour per day just to carry the call phone if you volunteer, and 2.50 extra for NS.

And i have a whack of resumes from my recruiters and i get called to do final interviews if required as i have certain standards and questions i ask. 3 months probation that is actually set up with a competency list and skills one must demonstrate to the supervisors and managers etc. and pass.

In most heavy industries that we have out here, Director mining, then pulp and paper, then other forestry items, then onto oil and gas for many yrs, and now i am in charge and responsible for a brand new facility being built from ground up in manufacturing in heavy industry. Building is up, equipment is rolling in and i want the trades to be part of the build and work with the civil and industrial guys building every piece and installing each item for their knowledge, a great thing for them, and myself.
Just hiring trades now and a couple managers, then 300 operators and a bunch of other support staff.

There is more to how academia operates than that but I see the point you are trying to make.

It pays well, which is why it is proving difficult figuring out a career change. But the politics are what gets me.

I feel too old to 'start over' in a completely different area.

Yea I feel the same way, I'm thinking about going back to school but I'm thinking more and more that our country's college system is a fucking scam. I'm not a conspiracy theorist just the entire set up seems like bullshit
