    Haven’t been to the Bakken since 14’,but have been pondering going back lately.Class A with tanker and have experience in hydrovac trucks and did some water hauling in ND as well.What I’m trying to figure out is if there is work up there that is worth moving up there for?

    Meh.

    It's ND. Everything is more expensive but there's typically always work

    ND Craigslist is booming looking for drivers right now when I look at it!

    That just means it's too cold to snow. No chains tonight!

    Just got up to Williston from SE Ohio, got a job doing frac-fluid heating pay is pretty good and I work with a good bunch of guys so far. My supervisor, the GM and owner all seem to be as good a management team as I had in quite awhile. Now SE Ohio on the other hand, F that place, I don’t care if I ever go back.
