I’m good at winning on them claw machines and this job seem like the same concept yeah. It does pay $35 an hour and you work on the rig so that’s free room and board and that per diem.

Better to be a crane demolition expert.

Oilfield Trash Making Oilfield Cash.

Pre-req to being a crane operator is driving an F-250 with a 12" lift. Do you have that yet?

That depends. How fat are you, and how fat do you want to be? 350lbs is a minimum for crane operators.

You missed your opportunity. The Hard Rock needed some operators.

If you want to make alot of money while it's booming yes. Have a backup plan for when the oilfield takes a dive. It's a Rollercoaster but it pays great. Don't buy an F250 either.

Try pre-med/med school. If that doesn't work, crane operation is an honorable profession.

I know the crane operators on the docks around New Orleans/ Baton Rouge make 6 figures.

Of course that’s nothing compared to the average yearly salary on the OT of Eleven Billion, but it’s good if you’re a poor baw.

I mean if your life's goal is "picking up shite" , you can't do much better. I know the field is competitive, because like every kid, I dreamed of picking shite up when I was a kid too. It was like:

1. Pick up shite
2. Batman
3. Power Forward for the Utah Jazz
