    You can't always count on a chow wagon or caters on a Frac site. I've been on countless Fractech sites and only seen them cater once. I got lucky and latched on to a Supieror Chrew who's Superviors loved eating. They had lunch every day. One time payroll got screwed up and everyone's check was shorted or they didn't get a check. Once they got the payroll squared away, they had Chef Express servin breakfast for a month to help make it up...I some how gained weight that month lol

    You still hauling water? That's an awful large ego for a water hauler. What's the hardest part of that job, squeezing into a convenet store parking lot for lunch? Come back when you spent a year or more on a Drilling rig or Frac chrew. Then, maybe then, I could see a Bronze Plaque.

    Maybeormaybenot, understand that you are getting your facts from a second party that mayormaynot know Paulcouto. Is his record spotless maybeormaybenot. Regardless, Paulcouto is still rolling along and his thread continues to be an inspiration for many of us who follow it!! What say you?? Would you agree that success is measured not by how hard you fall but how high you bounce back??

    As someone who works in Nabors HR... this thread is HILARIOUS. So many lies, so little time.

    If nothing else, it's good for a laugh.

    not one or two but MANY lies lol......the first lie is if you are in fact HR, if you are, then the second lie for sure is that you have little time if it implies you are busy working.

    Anyone ever worked for E&P Wireline or know anything about them. Just got a job offer as an Equipment Operator and was wondering what I'm about to get myself into.
