The locationof those jobs suck balls.
For instance, my nieghbour works up north, x # of days in and x # of days out.
His job is to check fire alarms at a facility (there are a few other things, but mainly that is it). He makes $100,000.00 +. I know of swamper jobs in Sylvan that start @$70,000.00.

Like professional sales, of any kind. The more money the professionals have, the more money they are spending... huge trickle down effect.
For example, in our industry, you see a lot of sales people in that range, where as if they are in a weak economy, they are making maybe half. We have guys show up here from Ontario and Quebec, and they are blown away at how easily people spend money, how little they negotiate, and how almost everyone qualifies for financing here, compared to the little factory or resort town they came from. We just hired a guy from the UK, and after his first week, he said it was amazing to him, how financially secure everyone seemed to be here, and how everyone has these huge down payments. We really take it for granted in the car business, trust me. Back in 08, when the recession hit, there was a lot of Kraft Dinner being bought around this place.
