Seemed to be, although I didn't pay undue attention to anything more than taking a piss.

Oil trades on sentiment. It won't be that long. Position yourself to rake in the money when it turns.Originally posted by DennyMy money is on at least a decade.Originally posted by racrguyWhat's your beef with NPR, because their listeners are typically more informed than others?Originally posted by racrguyVoting is a constitutional right, overthrowing the government isn't.

We have a friend who is an analyst for the Hunts and they seem to think that the price of oil needs to go under $30 in order for the industry to shake out. You have a lot of companies that are running at break even or a small loss. If it weren't for low interest rates they would already be dead.Originally posted by racrguyWhat's your beef with NPR, because their listeners are typically more informed than others?Originally posted by racrguyVoting is a constitutional right, overthrowing the government isn't.

At my company I'm on the only project that is projected to go past middle of next year.

Same can be said for the real estate market unfrtunately. When imterest rates creep back up...were going to have a lot of unemployed people and i wouldn't be surprised to see the crime rate spike.Originally posted by Broncojohnny View PostWe have a friend who is an analyst for the Hunts and they seem to think that the price of oil needs to go under $30 in order for the industry to shake out.

I think 45-50 is still profitable in a few parts of texas...these other guys are operating off of inventory they had built up in the good times so they are renting tools stupid cheap to keep the lights on (making it seem like 45 is profitable in more places than it is). When they run out of inventory and actually have to pay to repair stuff...we will see more collapses. The break even price right now is unsustainably low for many operators. 2016 will be a big acquisition year, collapse year and overall rough for the small guys.
Last week i got a call from a machine shop i used a fair amount that said they were closing up shop...were gonna let me know about the liquidation sale in a few days.

Dirt, pumps, etc and front yard when they let me. We have a ton of pump maintenance on these jobs. It's alright and next rotation I'm either going to HOH or in the front yard mostly. I understand being stuck at the bottom and stuck on dirt. With no one new coming in, someone has to do the shit jobs. As I type I am trying to take a break in a tractor from shoveling sand since someone dicked up a lever on the mover and when it got kicked on over 200 plus sacks got loaded onto the end of the tbelt aka on the ground. Wet and feeling like a powdered fucking donut right now. But I have pumpkin pie a cool wHip to make me happy. /rantOriginally posted by DennyWe had a couple of guys that were satisfied staying on dirt/salt. Didn't want to even do shit with pump maintenance. Just watch the belt... watch the belt... watch the belt.
Needless to say, they don't stick around because no one wanted shitheads that wouldn't carry their weight.
Fuck you. We're going to Costco.
