Do not work in the oilfields if you have lung problems.

So...treat the oil fields as you would a vacation to any third world country?

Not making light. Just a summary.

(Unless you found it funny...)

 

I believe ZERO what Rolling Stone writes. They're flat out liars....proven time and again.

 

Eh, the logic is there... Is it as severe as stated? Perhaps not.

Is the risk there? Certainly.

I'd do bottled water and the like, but walking around town with a gas mask on or driving around in a sealed bubble? Nah...

 

yep...
i have the same feeling about them...

but if you work in the oil Fields you have a h2s monitor you own...and if you have that much h2s in your water that h2s mon would be going off at home all the time....

this smells fishy....

 

So,... I read the paper and seems like all the typical anti fracing bs....

Nothing new.
I could type a 20 page response since I was in the industry and have my own opinions But will spare the masses HAHA and say this.

She cares so much, then she should park her car asap and refuse to use anything that was made or transported with oil and so should everyone else who feels that way. That is the only way out of the oil and gas industry....

 

Yea....The only problem with this (for those with the "moral high ground" anyway...) is that almost everything we have or use in our daily lives is either powered by, derived from, or manufactured using some form or other of petroleum or petroleum by-product. Not much out there these days not involved in the chain somehow. Unless you live totally and absolutely off the grid....And fashion your own tools, shelter, etc. using only natural materials and your own hands......

 

exactly my point. I get tired of people bashing on oil and the industry. We don't like it ourselves but its better then buying it from people who wanna cut out heads off and its better then being with out it.
By all means, she/he (the writer) can find a better source to run our trucks and I am all for it. But otherwise, she should look for a solution to the problem don't just write theatricals full if bullshyt and exaggerations.
I felt like I was reading about a the movie "the hills have eyes"...with all the HORROR she mentions.....

People like the writer of this paper are desperate to make a name....thats it...

 

any job that gives you a emergency respirator with an oxygen tank and a 4 gas detector during orientation and tells you that if you don't use these wisely you could die.....is the first sign its not a healthy environment...
Why do people think we made 10k a month as a driver and 30k net to the truck a month????
Because its easy and healthy???HAHAHAHHA
