    Hell nothing really wrong with the job, just most the time the guy doing the job is on soaps level.

    I've never really let it bother me when I've been made fun of for making more money and/or working less for the same money

    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. .

    Thanks dude,



    YES!! Since I didn't have enough things on a rig that could injure me.



    If only it wasn't so far away... and cold.



    Gotta do what ya gotta do
    Don't get it twisted, it turns into a frigid bitch out in South Texas too. Try tripping pipe in the 20's, when it's raining. That shit fucking sucks, and you can't really get away from it to somewhere warm. It's usually pretty dry out in west texas, which can help.

    You could move to Ohio, SW PA, or West Virginia. They are the primary booms up here in the Marcellus/Utica right now. Depending on this winter influencing the NYMEX Pricing, NE PA and NY might be back to hot and heavy soon as well. We are running 7 triples and 3 air rigs right now in SW PA.
