They put out a contract 12 days or so ago to a temp agency for general labourers to move 20kg sandbags on and off the LRVs to simulate a full passenger load. The listing has the following days on it: April 4th, April 11th, April 16th, April 27th, May 2nd, and May 7th. https://ca.indeed.com/m/viewjob?jk=a944e8542393413a&from=company&tk=1ca36b4ol0kbr4bj&dupclk=0
Why keep moving the sandbags on and off? Why wouldn’t they just load them up and leave them there? Or is it that they want to test at various loading levels?
Funny thing is, they could probably get sandbags to pay to be there, and take themselves on and off without assistance. Well, not sandbags: actually ugly bags of mostly water.
The vibe I got from the job posting is that they would be doing the testing on different LRVs each time. It would also make sense that they would want to test at various load levels as well.
