I was in it but got hurt. Getting sent back to school. Have a question for you guys.

Instrumentation and Electronics Associates Degree. How far would this take me in getting a job back in O&G? As good as I have been told? In 5 or 6 years be making 100k+? Do you gave to lift any kind of heavy weight? I am permanently restricted at 30 lbs.

Before I was a fueler on Frac sites in the Bakken. Easy job with tons of hours, most of which you can spend napping. In less than a month I was already close to getting supervisor. Then I tore up my shoulder, woot

Depends on where you work but 100k+ for an E-tech in Frac wouldnt be hard to do in about 1-3 years....depends on the hours you get but 100k in less than 3 is very easy. Not a whole lot of physical labor, but you'd have to pass a physical.
