The fact I can work less hours then my current Job with triple the money, in my eyes it's very much worth it!

    Thank you for this video. In short, my wife and I of 24 years recently separated and I lost everything as a result. Career included. I need to find an entry level job where overtime is basically uncapped and earning potential is high. I have heard working in an oil field can be this. Is this accurate? If so, how would I go about finding such jobs? Would companies hire a 48 year old with zero experience in the industry? Thanks so much for your help!

    This is such great advice! And all so true always be picking up the hammer or broom if your hands are empty pick up a hammer wrench or broom and start using it to do something be useful, be helpful, learn and absorb like a sponge, be cleaning, be learning, be hardworking, stay hydrated and fed and have all the gear you need to stay comfortable. Don’t ever let a guy with seniority over you grab the hammer before you show fucking initiative. If you’re lazy these guys will sniff it out of you and run you into the ground until you quit. If that happens you have either the choice to quit or rise to the occasion and out work them.

    I worked 15 years on the rigs all the way up to driller. I still show this video to people who ask me about starting on the rigs. You won me over instantly when you talked about not being lazy, lol it really is a huge thing. not only cause you’re being lazy, but because you’re earning your crews respect and thats what really matters. If your crew doesnt like you then your days are numbered

    @naturaloutdoorsoklahoma7054 Год назад

    Long story short, in my experience. Workin floors a clean floor is a good floor. Collar clamps and wedding bands stay in the same area out the way with easy access. Keep your mud bucket and catch can close by during trips. Never be scared to learn. Follow the motor man when shit goes wrong. Go to the mud house and learn how to get a mud check. Best advice I can give is ask questions if you don’t know. No matter how stupid you think it could be. If it don’t look right it might not be right. And don’t EVER stand there and watch somebody work. Jump in and get hands on. Show them guys you wanna get in there and learn. Always have a good attitude and you’ll be good. It’s good money and them days off are glorious. Been doin it 2 years now just got moved to derricks. Gotta love getting high. Fftp. Be safe men
