    Some people need the higher pay and don't really have the skills to get a good paying desk job. Some just want the relative freedom of having what equates to 6 months off every year. (This is the thing that has intrigued me somewhat)

    I'm glad he brought it here because a lot of these guys could use the pay. I certainly don't want people to stop posting opportunities for our members because some of us who make money don't find it appealing. I personally want all the clown jobs posted. (except that advocare bullsh*t)

    A yob is better than no yob.

    We rent out portable septic/fresh water systems for the bunks houses, we also rent out restroom trailers and port-a-Jon's.

    Yeah that job sucked, but there is plenty of "GOOD" money to be made. My ex is a driller and my cousin is a company man/consultant whichever you prefer to call it.
    There's a pretty substantial gap in dfwm GOOD definitions:

    good / GOOD

    8MPG: $40k / $70k

    ruffdaddy: $90k / $150k
