    Just moved to Canada and been looking at kobs...
    Look at this for a description of duties

    Operates straight or articulated rubber-tired tractor-type vehicle equipped with front-mounted hydraulically powered bucket or scoop to lift and transport bulk materials to and from storage or processing areas, to feed conveyors, hoppers, or chutes, and to load trucks or railcars: Starts engine, shifts gears, presses pedals, and turns steering wheel to operate loader. Moves levers to lower and tilt bucket and drives front-end loader forward to force bucket into bulk material. Moves levers to raise and tilt bucket when filled, drives vehicle to work site, and moves levers to dump material. Performs routine maintenance on loader, such as lubricating, fueling, and cleaning.

    I would have applied but i don't like all this wheel turning and pedal pressing :)

    just getting over technical, and with the way PS-ness and compensation culture has got in the US and canada, i'd say they want to have it 100% accurate so that you couldnt start claiming they didnt tell you what the job was about

    There's probably a risk assessment and method statement for each operation as well! :rolleyes:

    Sort of detailed nonsense I had to write for jobs on London Underground, MS for general plumbing repairs was 175 pages :confused:

    Caution, reading this message should be done while in a comfortable seating position. Eye strain may result from too long spent reading this nonsense. May contain nuts :D
