    Anyone have any input? I've got an offer from both, and trying to decide which to take.

    MBM is 62k base per year, but has overnight layovers and schedule can be nights and weekends it seems

    Ben E Keith is 51k per year base, home every night, but must work every Saturday.

    Equipment looks newer at BEK as do the facilities.

    But MBM pays a good bit more.

    Which would you go work for?

    Personally, I think I would go for the schedule I liked best. Probably hit $60k on BEK. I understand food delivery is a hustle.

    Have you had enough of the patch? Good luck which ever one you go with!

    yea, the oil patch is getting old, mainly due to long hours of boredom, and having a 5 year old, 2 year old, and daughter #3 about to be born any day now. I am only getting home 5 days a month and it is really wearing on me and the fam. Like last night i worked a total of 30 mins, and had to sit there outside for 11.5 hours doing NOTHING, that is just driving me crazy.
