Damn that sucks baw. I'm a sparky so I haven't seen any cuts yet, but being OGC firm our jobs are slowly thinning out.

Find a way to ride it out, hopefully the bounce back doesn't take too long

I'm fine. It's the guys with 3 kids wife mortgage etc that are hurting. Oilfield suicides are way up. At least another year til hiring picks up - minimum.

What if I told you that you could BE YOUR OWN BOSS, WORK FROM HOME, and RAKE IN MILLIONS!


Well, it's all true. You see, all these things (your wildest DREAMS even!) can be yours with a business opportunity called QuickStar..

My TWIC expired since I've been overseas 5 years. Plus I would never work industrial. It's like asking Picaso to get a job at a bakery. I'm an oilman dammit!!!!


Sounds like you're not quite broke enough yet

If you haven't already, try to apply to some tugboat/towboat companies in the river. the work is nonstop over here. If you have a license you are pretty much golden to get a wheelhouse spot, but you could get a job in most positions. I know a lot of guys who got laid off from the oilfield and got hired on out here.

I heard the zeta cartel is looking for people. Just go to Nuevo Larado and ask around. You will get an interview the same day. How are your ak-47 skills?
