    just ran a quick search of ads for water haulers in ND, and the going rate is $19 an hour... seem that the wages have dropped as there are more people willing to work for that rate.

    Waited around too long. Get in early if you want good money. Just like S TX. Rats show up from all over the country in a bad economy like ours and start cutting rates and throats. People on here been "feeling" situation out for yrs instead of getting off that arse and going to work. Still lots of jobs but the glory days are slipping away quickly.

    I haul water for MBI subcontractor for $28. I hate MBI management with a passion and moving on soon. I'm going to % pay. Only way $19 hr is acceptable is if you have absolutely 0 experience. If that's the case take the job and treat it as a paid internship. Prepare to be micromanaged with every move you make
     
    dog-c and stevict Thank this.

    Copy that on mbi management, they are really lacking in leadership and common sense.

    Big Duker (and others),

    Might the pickings be better in states and cities that are just coming online, or those that haven't received the press of ND and TX? As someone about to enter CDL school I sure hope a case can still be made for entering the industry this fall.

    the jobs will probably still be around come this fall... never know for sure with the oil field... it booms, and then it plateaus, then it busts very quickly.. but the days of rapid growth are over, all of the public companies are predicting that they will drill the same number of wells this year as last year... The already drilled wells still need serviced, but that take only a handful of people.
