Oil Field Operators...
This job pays well...but as add says...expect to work extremely long hours...80+ per week, and out in extreme whether...Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota...
In the above pic, they show a very clean, sanitized truck, rigged with equiptment....looks brand new...
But in reality, that truck would be covered with lots of 'goo'...oil, gas, dirt, rocks.
And in reality, working in the dead of winter would look more like this...
Be prepared for some cold hands and feet...10+ hours a day...you have to have lots of stamina for that...and a bit of desperation....and a lot of love, once you get off work.
Turn over rate is high...cause people hear about the money, get excited, but aren't prepared for the brutal schedual.
But for those who can handle it, it pays well...do it for a year or to, save money, and move on...
