I am a currently a head chef, the job is for a chef trainer in the hospitals that Sodexho / Contract catering company have won the contract for, the job is in Vancouver, The sunshine coast and Squamish , they will pay the cost of the gas and maintainance of the vehicle, 2 weeks paid holiday a year, basically they are rolling out new menus and need a chef trainer to go in and train other chefs, the contract is planned for nine months.

They better pay you a lot, there paying hospital staff $10 per hour to clean up bodily waste, blood, crap and clean rooms.

$40.000 to start, not sure about Km, I will have to ask, $40k didnt seem that much to me , I'm on more at the moment, hence the post.

40k here is likely alot different than there - 40k isn't a bad yearly income but a second income would be needed for alot of locations (cost of rent etc...)

i agree with james. ask for three weeks, that's a good recognition of yer skilz. $40k, tho, isn't bad, especially because our cost of living is A LOT less than in the UK. yeah, second income would help big time; but i seem to recall your wife is a nurse -- so the combo would be fine.

Yeah ,but isn't it time for the nurses to go on strike again?

Seems like you have to factor strike time into your savings plan these days...
