    I drive vac truck. Those guys rig up to a well head. Water flows back into a tank. The flow back guy measures the tank and sleeps in his travel trailer. I hook up and take water from tank to disposal. Then I come back yo open top flow back tank.

    You have to wake up every hour and take readings and send them via computer to home office. Plus you check for oil. You don't work very hard. I assume you get paid for every hour out there. So, 4 days is 96 hours. Which 56 is overtime. Plus travel time. Then break down the iron when your done. Take samples as needed.

    I tried to send you a pm but your box is full. Is the job a live on site or do you go to multiple sites in a pickup. I have seen similar jobs at different companies also called lease operator and well tester.
