Worst oilfield job?

You drive local in Chicago?

 

Flat, no they dont generally shoot at you,but the land owner's can be very touchy about trucks leaving the lease roads. no promises on not getting blown up,lol things do happen in the oil feilds, need to very carefull about your sounding's it can be a very deadly place if your not.We call it stupid money for the reason the pay a stupid amount of it,the work is not hard but the days can be long you work weekends,holidays rain ,snow,sleet.

 

the hardest job in the oil field buy far is vaccum truck driver (if you are an actual worker) if lazy usually have a swamper my self could never sit by and watch someone work. the pay can be very good once expierenced. 40-60/hr..lots of companies pay 400/day staying in a camp or your own trailer on site..drilling rigs can be hard but almost every job is hard and dirty

 

I did the Chicago railyard gig, hit 17 railyards on the south side. Threw out the night driving through the ghettos , you will here and see shootings . Had the truck hit by stray lead , the 80-100 angry mobs that do thrill kills will keep ya awake at 3 am. In the summer time though out the night, if your a man of action or want to see action just roll threw the s.side ghettos. To the op if you want the dirtyest job, there,s still competion. If you excell in math, you can be the guy that sets the cordence- profile that the driller follows to hit the oil. I worked on a big horizontal rig 89-98, our steer man made 5k a day in 1995. A dirty job- lifting 200 lbs plus 12-24 hrs a day, equills major injuries. Everybody leaves all messed up, trust me on this one.

 

super sucker = swift driver....


sorry couldnt help it....

 

Perfect work for those with no brains.

 

Doing cement is a little more dirty than frac sand. You guys do dont have a dust sock to worry about and all. And our fittings thread on and you beat em on with a sledge after you brushed them with the wire brush and oiled them. Not them ##### cam lock type of deals. Little more tricky than sand to unload too. No top air at all. It has to be fluffed up before it will go down n out

 

Worst oil field job by far is being up in the derrick. Jan-Feb, Wy Mt Nd. LOL
