    Were these Texas positions? What are your skills?

    How about those oil prices today, lots of Permian stocks taking a 20+% hit.

    They seem to want to start me in the QC and saida Safety spot will be open in a few months. If I want to switch then they said it would be an option.

    I will keep you posted.

    Either Safety or a QC position. Both pay the same. I am good with either but would rather the QC...it has a entertainment allowance

    I worked for Patterson years ago. . Learned a lot. will not work for them again unless it's my last option. . Once you get experience it will be easier finding another job if you have too. . Every job is dangerous. . Use common sense and you will be fine. . You will do a lot of washing and painting. . You will go to your orientation they will tell you all the stuff not to do.. if it's anything like it was when I work there expect the opposite at the rig. . Dont be scared to put your hands on something. .

Depending on performance. . I have a friend working on one for EOG the floorhands are making 100k a year with bonus. .

    How so. ... . The average pay is around 23-26 an hour.. can't count bonus or
    per dim or oil base pay. Because not every one gets it..
    i have a good friend mud engineer making 750 a day..

    Stallion Oilfield Services is looking at my resume to fill a QC position 45miles south east of San Antonio. My buddy works for them now and is brokering the introduction. He said that they want to set up a meeting with me probably first thing as soon as I get back on dry land from this cruise.
