Sounds like you work at CF

I don't have a degree or had any previous experience in operations when I got on. A degree may help you get noticed against a 19yo with no degree. Everyone I know that has a p-tech degree says they've learned more in 6 months in the field. As far as the safety council training that was mentioned, that's required but not a deal breaker. They will put you through the required training. Think about it, every single person that walks through the gate of any plant has basic osha, most have confined space and scaffold user. So just having that will not get you hired.
Best advise I can give you from a guy that worked for years as a contractor to where I'm at today, is to keep trying and don't give up. Politic when you go to a plant, put your name out there. Most plants that are not union hire ppl they know. The reason being is we find that more and more ppl can make a resume look good and do great in interviews but when it comes down to learning the unit and troubleshooting, they just can't cut it. Therefore, if you hire someone that you know/or someone recommended, chances are they will be better than the previously described person. Let me know if you still having problems getting on with a contractor and I will help you. My way of paying it forward.

Community Coffee with a side of butterfinger

Was out on the boat, anchored out enjoying a few cold ones with friends. The area of the river on this particular day had a good bit of boats (maybe 100 or so). A random guy pulls up and ask if he could tie up on the other side of me, he had some cute chicks so I said sure. A little while later he decides to catch the taxi boat to the bar. A few hours later, this random guy has not came back and we were ready to go.
What would the OT do? Wait til he got back, throw his anchor(or not) and untie his boat from yours, or go look for him.

Typically these "people" are happy where they are at and would rather live on acres of land rather than .25 of an acre with another overpaid house 10 ft from it

Ariat pants are pretty comfortable and have a nice finish to them like regular jeans. Ariat, cinch and carhart has nice shirts. The Henley shirts of all brands are comfortable but seem to shrink alot. I have a pile of Ariat and cinch shirts, some still with tags on them. Let me know if interested in buying them. I no longer need them.

If you are an operator and have worked at so many different places, then maybe that's saying that it's not really your specialty. If you were worth a damn, then you would still be at the first place you worked. Just stick to shittin in porta pottys, operations is not for you.
