    Too right! The closest "lady" to the ND oil patch is in a Montana strip bar! If you happen to see a "female" up here, she's either married, too old for sex, lost most of her teeth or making more than the oil guys by dancing in a strip club.

    I wouldn't doubt that at all...

    Yet another reason to pick TX instead of ND!

    I'm sure COL alone make up for the pay differential....add in all of the other factors and it's a no-brainer.

    Just an update, I told the recruiter for MBl that I wasn't interested after watching videos on youtube and reading the details of the poor infrastructure, housing and weather. She didn't quit, she kept trying to get me to join. Rent being 500-1000 a month I Was told...Umm...no thanks...I found an ad on craigslist requiring 3 months of experience in Odessa, TX, I will give them a call in another month.

    I was called today and MBI want's to give me an interview on Skype. Does anyone know the questions they ask? Sometimes interviews can be nerve racking, let alone I never been on cam and find it awkward.
