Back to the oilfield?

My homie Brett runs a sand can for brady, and is happy...He's been there since 2012 so he's staying busy based on seniority..He said Brady isnt overhiring like some companies...That was about it..
I wanna go back also...so much negative talk though from everyone there!!! Lots of talk about drivers sitting..Im not there so I dont really know, but the word aint that good !! I dont know what to think

Im looking at MBI...knowing they're pay is low, but they are the stable mable where i was...I worked for MBI subcontractors and was getting $22.50 an hour..Maybe buy a truck someday and run O/O for them...

My advice would be to be bankrolled for a month or so just in case Brady aint it and you got to go lookin for something else..
Im lookin at craigslist/northdakota/northdakota/transportation everyday, and I still see cool ads everyday..

I think you could hook a job in a day there..you been there, so you know...

Man, williston is nuts, the only place in the world where you can have tanker gridlock on main st....I worked out of NewTown, and liked it alot...I miss it, wanna go back...This time i'll tote my world with me so i dont get all homesick and go home, lol

 

I really wanted to see a tree of whos who///meaning Chevron calls Haliburton who calls Slawson Exploration who calls Bear Mountain Trucking who ships work to MBI then to the smallers like Iron Horse/Power etc etc

Never got a clear picture, I wanted to aim for the highest possible...Theres a pecking order based on need based on price per barrel..And I couldnt figure it out..Seems different places hit at different times and who knows how many frac's theres gonna be on that particular deal!!

Hope you score something solid so your not prostituting yourself on the 23...lol

Eventually I'll go back...Theres lots of heavy equip stuff there also for me..Heck, the State is running ads for a backhoe operator for 23 an hour, full bennies..If all else failed..

Remember LTL also!! Magnum is up there, always hiring, paying decently
I saw an ad from Central Transport, now in Minot, starting at 28 bucks an hour !! what the hay

I want to be on the frac;s though...so very cool it was, men and machine messing with mother earth 3 miles down using 10 Iron horses to make 20 thousand pounds of pressure to blast sand and water all the way to china i love it
Hurry up and send updates back here...If its that bad I'll money gram you a 20 so you can buy 1 two dollar freezer pizza at cenex!!! LOL

take care, good luck...dont do what i did and take a 2 wheel drive mustang thru the black hills in wintertime!! Go around!! Take the left in Lusk Wyoming!!!

 

I am in Watford City hauling crude. We are very busy with oil, but ALL of the companies are working to cut overtime. We have over hired purposely (out of work water haulers) to cut the OT. As of 4 weeks ago, mandatory schedule 5/2, 5/3. Took a $ 27,000.00/year pay cut with the new schedule. You can still bump 100k, but the 130-150k days are gone for now. Good luck.

 

I heard MBI quit the sand hauling division. I know for a fact that they spooled it up in SW Wyoming as they rent a yard from my family and all of their equipment is stacked up and there hasn't been a driver around in a couple weeks.

 

Mbi sand division shut down. I currently work at brady, I'd recommend against it, most people here are not happy including myself. The rates have been slaughtered.

 

Welcome to the wonderful world of not being happy working local
