    Wow....this has been a great thread...I'm on my days off so I had timme to get back people who have contacted me...excuse the errors in typing...I think my phone has it's own dictionary when it comes to spelling...anyhoooo..I mysellf am pretty proud of Paul...these postings actually end up being like a diary and people really shouldn't put so mmmuch effort in being so critical...I for one think it's pretty kewl when someone wants and takes the time out of their short 24term hr day to invite us into the life they are experiencing...what about this notion "if it doesn't appeal to change the channel"...Ilm an oil hauler in ND...been here 2 yrs..started out hauling fresh went to producction to now oil...I have a goal myself and believe me Paul in every rooting section there will be someone who has to heckle but guess what keep being you and as long as the checks cask and money in the bank your one step ahead... :) ... I'm headed to Texas myself.. :)...ND has made me alot of money but guess what the cost to be here is outragiouse...good luck to all

    hey everyone, battled that oilfield 4 39 hours straight, she finally gave up after the 35th hour and i got to admit i was happy about that. my reward was 6 hours sleep and right back to it and i felt great. ive created my own personal hell but the oppurtunity is heaven, so ive learned to makebfriends with christ and satan all at the same time lol. there is no day off and im happy that i can work it that way. i really like the stories u guys hv posted, espeacially the old guy who gets back and washes his truck at midnight after a long shift, hes a terminator who cant be reasoned with lol. gisquid, yur relayed message 4 me sucked and is full of inaccuracies, i dont work 280's. i work 240's and anyone who knows what that is first hand knows wut an epic difference it would be.........i feel you will have to be punished and punished you will be sir. i worked 128 last week and i cant imagine how a person can work a 280, even 2 me its insane........but the thing is, if a guy says he does, then it aint #### unless he does it all the time......last thing i want to hear is someone saying they worked that much but then went to acuna to visit their family........i like the old man terminator who gets out there every day, long hours and no days off, i think thats awesome........ok people, right back to it, i got to go put that oilfield in check, u sleep 6 hours and the oilfield starts getting ####y, gona nip that in the bud and put that b i t c h in her proper place, on her knees and at my feet........while i levitate.
