About to head to a BH job fair myself, hoping my experience in the Marines pays off...though I definitely don't want to be a supervisor right off!...
In for answers, been wondering about working in the hot oil biz.
I'm jealous. Mountrail County has been getting soaked.
I'm so sick of this rain. And I don't even mind the mud so much as how absurdly muggy it gets when the sun inevitably comes out after. I feel like...
They also haul water, and at least on that side, they have one of the worst reputations up here. Pay problems, trucks in bad condition--mostly...

Lots of sand haulers and some crude haulers have sleepers. I'm in one right now (sand). Water haulers tend to run day cabs or coffin sleepers so...
every single time.
What are the opportunities for advancement, if any? I live about 5 hours from the Marcellus, but haul water in North Dakota.
I want your job! I back up 10-12 times a day. Makes bumping a dock look like nothing, that's for sure. Aren't you up here in the Bakken?
