Awe man....I KNOW!!! lol Boy,i've thought about packin the camper and hittin' the road every since i heard about it.I would HAVE to push tools tho ,only 52 but gettin' too old to swing those tongs or climb derricks again.Back then most of us were half drunk too,workin 80 hours of OVER time was a MUST or you wasn't worth a chit.Still have those old check stubs,123 hours in a 7 day WEEK.LOL Hell,everything is automated now though i THINK.Up in North Dakota "SOME" are payin "Directional" drillers up to $1350.00 dollars a DAY,1000.$ is common and i found out it IS the truth.Gotta be one tough ____ out there though.My BIL broke his leg out in west Texas on a rig,we threw him in the bed of a pick-up and hauled ass 28 miles to get him some relief.He's still b!tchin about his leg bouncin all over yet today.LOL I DO hear ya brother.I lived for years in Luling,sure do miss that City Market too. |
