    ive found its not hard to move up quick in the oil field if youre motivated and really try to kick ### everyday, you know, bring the energy and enthusiasm.

    i went to a frac tech location the other day, they got a chow wagon that serves food all day and its all free and everyone's ppe is spotless lol......looks like a decent company, lot of rules but very legit.

    ......and yep, i'm kickin butt every day, got company men calling my bosses sayin im the best hand our company has, some of them want me to come work on their rig too. i'm meeting and getting noticed by a lot of important people out in the field and i think thats what its all about. the main thing out here is never think yur something speacial and perform as if everyone is your boss, everyone has a job to do so help out as much as you can even if its not your job supposedly.........but dont take unreasonable #### either lol, except from company men and pushers and stuff lol.

    not tryin to boast, personally i prefer to just get yelled at.

    Nice way to avoid the question just trying to figure out how you say you're the baddest dude in the oil field but 3 different guys ive been on location with from sonora yard you worked with say otherwise told you rolled your truck but left these details out. I think they took down the statue some time ago ala joepa.

    doesnt surprise me you and nabors workers were standing around and talking instead of working.

    they took the statue down? maybe they are dipping it in gold or something.......just wait till they put the mural of me levitating off the ground with the light of god behind me and children looking up in admiration and awe.

    Paulcouto, I have been hearing reports that the town of Sonora is fitting your gold statue with Ruby eyes. Then they are going to place it right next to the welcome sign. Have you heard where your portrait is going to be displayed?_
