Originally posted by Trip McNeely View PostLots of jobs here in the Marcellus and Utica. We have Precision and Patterson super triples that drill for us but they are pretty automated. Can you weld or if you want to work for a frac, casing or cement crew I can check some contacts for you. Those tend to be the majority of hot field jobs requiring less experience.
Originally posted by racrguy View PostProtip: if you want somewhat of a normal life, find a rig that stays close to somewhere you want to live that has 8 hour towers. I've worked 7/7 and 14/14 with 12 hour towers, ultimately I liked 7/7 better, even though I had less time at home due to drive time.
The towers make no sense to me however I assume it's the length of the shift?

I'd prefer 7/7 or 12/12 but I'll damn near take almost anything to get out of my current place.

7's you burn up free time traveling, 14's is good, but I prefer 21's... after 2wks, you're ready to go home. 21 you're fucking DONE. But then you have time to take care of shit on days off, travel, etc. And after 21 days of fucking off, you're actually wanting to go back!

Originally posted by rz5.0 View PostI loved 7-7 when I was 30 min from work. . Now that I have to travel. . You can't beat 14-14.. you have enough time to do whatever. . 21 days is to long. Especially when things are going wrong. .
