El Dorado, Ark. With the exception of the doctors, and a few nurses, the average IQ of everyone there (hospital) was exceptionally low.

A hotel in Galliano - not that the hotel sucked but we had to quarantine for 48 hours in our rooms which was absolutely boring as fricking.

Man 48 hours is nothing. They made us quarantine for 14 days in a dumpy hotel in Houma back in April of 2020

Wilmington, DE.

Saw the tranq poses first hand. Had a nice riverfront area, but stayed downtown. I’d go for a run every morning and ran through downtown about a mile until getting to the riverfront.

Afternoon, drug deals going on wide open in the streets.

Early mornings, running past people standing in a tranq pose in the middle of streets. Real life zombie stuff.

Other times non attractive people standing in bunches around intersections giving threatening looks to people driving through.

This. I can’t stand that place.

I’d rank the places I’ve traveled to for work in this order:

Singapore
Tokyo, Japan
Edmonton, Canada
Moscow, Russia












Houston, Tx

It wasn't really a bad place, but the most unique place I ever had to go for work was I spent a week on Camp Lejeune, NC in the late 1990's. It was like a different world.

Having 155mm Howitzer shells shot over your head was eye opening...

I’d venture to say most people don’t know much about the nuances of Tajikistan. Eerie place that’s for sure.

Went to do an inspection on a very old drilling rig one day. truly disgusting. When the boat pulled up to the rig they had a basket hanging off the crane burning all the mattresses. They had an infestation of the crabs.
Did my inspection and slept out on the deck.

Middle of the desert in AZ. Literally nothing within 2 hours except a little grocery store and a gas station. It was so isolated, it was next to a bombing range for the Air Force.
