<p>[QUOTE="kwray, post: 2140170, member: 30143"]I've heard similar things too. That a couple big companies are moving into the Barnett and Fayetteville shale areas and driving the wages down. I live in the Marcellus area and already similar things are happening. They started out paying the drivers $20 or more an hour and now its down to $17 or $18 (which is still pretty decent, especially if you get time and a half after 40 hrs). The owner operators were getting $110 an hour and now thats down to around $90. I'm wondering if this gas drilling boom isn't all its cracked up to be for a variety of reasons.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
