Been here since Monday night at 11. Not looking like we will get out today either. As long as roads are being closed, we stay. Too old for this air mattress crap

Job security for you guys….imagine the workload in about 9 months.

Wrap it up, friend.

Same. Looks like we’ll be here till tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. But I’ll be honest, I’ve been getting more rest here than I do at home.

Same here but at the plant. Won’t leave till Thursday at 5. Ready to head home.

Next weeks check will be nice though. Sucks now, but when those funds hit, I’ll be glad I did it.

We’re supposed to leave at Thursday 4am but we’ll see. The roads have to thaw some first.

Hwy 27 in Sulphur was like a galcier this morning. I left my hotel at 4 and saw a truck deeeep in the ditch across from Rouses. Nearly busted my arse a few times in the parking lot.

Same for us. But double time as long as the site is on lockdown which doesn’t end until tomorrow morning.

I’m near there. I was irritated that I couldn’t go home last night because the snow was over, but I know that getting here the next two mornings would be hell. Just suck it up, finish out my time and head home Thursday evening.

Same here, but I am not at hospital.

Looks like Siberia in downtown Houma.

Aren’t you getting paid around the clock and time and a half while technically working? If not, you need to quit.
