I'm a stone cold rookie, gonna work the texas oil fields

yeah, got a bad feeling, dont know why....oh well, pedal to the metal. I been training a few people lately and i'll be in the passenger seat tonight. Its really wet and cold tonight and i hear theres some new rig locations and more than likely they will be needing fresh water. What i'm gonna do is bring all the hoses i can, i dont care if i got to hook up 10 hoses today, i'm gonna get it done and not get stuck in the mud or crash.

i got a feelin i'll be breaking my ### tonight, cold wet, rainy, muddy and a long shift.........BRING IT ON.

 

man guys, i really dont know how i can update this blog thing here, i plan on workin more and more now, i guess i can update some things here and there when they cross my mind but i cant reaaly respond to questions or compliments much if at all.

I put in 94 hours this week i think and training aint what its cracked up to be, its just another thing i got to figure out and exploit. I can get more hours training because they are the ones driving, so i can go over 15 if i come in earlier than them. I'll figure something out. The thing that sucks is that their paper work has to get handed in with mine, so i got to make sure everything is in order. I got to admit most people dont have my work attitude, i'm on top of everything. When i get back to the yard, I AM DONE. My paperwork, everything is done and so far i cant say the same for others no matter how much i try to stress the importance of staying on top of your paper work. Whatever, i'll figure something out, the thing is though and this may sound hard to believe but theres only so many hours in a day. I litterally work and sleep work and sleep and i actually have to plan things out to make sure i get at least 5 hours of sleep. There have been many times i only sleep 3-4 hours but i know i can only do that once and make sure i get 6 the next day. Dont know why, sometimes i sleep and wake up 3-4 hours later and cant get back to sleep wich really sucks.

so anyway, my game is getting alot tighter now and the right people are noticing which is a good thing because it allows me more freedom at work to work a schedule that i like. They know i'm all about the hours and gettin lots of work done, so it appears i can basically be my own boss.

well, i'll definately keep updating but i really dont know what much to say. Maybe one day some owner of a small company or WHOEVER will be reading this and be willing to hire a proven worker who can get it done at a high level. If that person ever reads this, i'd like to make OVER 100k gross and i really dont care what i got to do to make it.

ok guys, see you later and good luck.

 

by the way, i didnt mean anything about another job any time soon unless my arm gets twisted with an offer i cant refuse, to be honest i'm not lookin any more, goin to stick with my original plans and stay with nabors for at least 1 year and refine my trade and do it right, i think thats the right move and i may just grind it out here till i semi retire which i feel i can do in 5 years of hard grinding.

no doubt though, i like money, its my primary reason for all this.

 

actually, i figured out a way around getting sleepy in the cab, i turn on the dome light and talk to myself.

over to sonora?.........thanks for the warning!
