    Lucas Fletcher is taking a gap year before pursuing post-secondary education. He wants to gain work experience at Ready Mix Ltd to determine if he wants to pursue a career in welding or as a heavy-duty mechanic. During his gap year, Lucas hopes to learn welding skills, perform tasks independently, and gain knowledge of cement trucks. He plans to attend BCIT after his gap year to become a heavy-duty mechanic. Lucas earns $15 per hour and estimates making $24,436 annually. He will save money in a separate account to fund his future apprenticeship program.

    My Gap Year’s

    BY LUCAS FLETCHER
    Why I am doing a
    gap and not post
    secondary
    I WANT TO FOCUSES ON
    WORKING TO BE ABLE TO BE TO
    LIVE A GOOD LIFE AND HAVE A
    HEAD START ON WHAT I.
    ANOTHER REASON I WANT TO
    HAVE GAP YEARS IS FOR I CAN
    SEE IF I LIKE THE JOB I WANT TO
    DO BEFORE I GO TO POST
    SECONDARY FOR A COURSE.
    WHAT I WILL BE DOING IN MY GAP YEAR’S

    •I WILL BE WORKING AT RMC-


    READY MIX LTD UNTIL I AM READY
    TO GO TO POST SECONDARY FOR A
    RED SEAL OR AN APPRENTICE.
    WHAT I WANT -WELDING: I WANT TO BE ABLE TO
    WELD SO I CAN BUILD MY OWN
    TO LEARN STUFF. ANOTHER REASON IS IF I
    OVER THE GAP WANT TO GO TO A DIFFERENT JOB,
    SO I CAN PUT WELDING ON MY
    YEARS AT RMC RESUME.
    -being able to take a task without asking for
    help: to be able to do a task without asking
    for help is a big thing for me because you
    can get more respect if you are able to do a
    task without help but if you really don’t
    know what you’re are doing ask for help.
    -KNOWLEDGE: I WANT TO HAVE THE
    KNOWLEDGE OF KNOWING
    EVERYTHING ON CEMENT TRUCKS
    SO WHEN IM OUT OF SCHOOL I AM
    ABLE TO WORK ON THE TRUCKS. I
    NEED THIS KNOWLEDGE BECAUSE
    IF THERE IS A MAJOR BREAKDOWN
    AND IF THERE IS NO ONE ELSE TO
    FIX IT I NEED TO KNOW HOW.
    THE SCHOOL THAT
    I WILL GO TO
    AFTER MY GAP
    YEAR IS BCIT.

    WHY I PICKED BCIT IS


    BECAUSE IT HAS THE MOST
    APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM.
    SO I THINK THAT THEY WOULD
    HAVE THE BETTER COURSES
    THEN ALL THE OTHER POST
    SECONDARY SCHOOL
    •I WANT TO BE A HEAVY-DUTY
    MECHANIC THERE, SO THE
    WHAT TRADE I MAIN JOB IS WORKING ON
    THE TRUCKS AND MACHINES
    WILL BE DOING THAT ARE BROCKED DOWN.
    BUT I AM GOING TO BE
    AT RMC-READY HELPING WITH REPAIRING
    THE CONCRETE PLANT. THIS
    MIX LTD WOULD ASLO GIVE ME AN
    ADVANTAGE ON KNOWING
    HOW THE PLANTS RUN.
    WHAT IS THE
    WEEKLY/YEARLY PAY
    AS OF RIGHT NOW MY
    PAY IS $15 PER HOUR. AS
    A FULL-TIME WORKER I
    WILL BE WORKING 8-
    HOUR DAYS 5-6 DAYS A
    WEEK. SO, MY MONTHY
    PAY WILL AVERAGES
    AROUND $2,036. MY
    YEARY PAY WOULD
    ADVERAGE AROUND
    $24,436
    HOW I WILL PUT MONEY
    ASIDE FOR AN
    APPERTICESHIP
    PROGRAM?
    AN OFFICANT WAY THAT I WANT TO
    DO IS SPLIT MY PAY FOR THE FIRST
    LITTLE BIT. I WANT TO DO 50% IN MY
    SPENDINGACCOUNT AND THE REST
    IN A SAVING ACCOUT.
    AFTER A WHILE AT 50% AND
    50% I WOULD CHANGE IT TO
    25% SPENDING ACCOUT AND
    75% SAVING ACCOUNT.
    THANKS FOR LISTENING
