mudman if you tighten your butt up maybe you can get promoted to driller. I am a toolpusher for Trinidad drilling. Changing companies is the best thing that I have done in a long time.

I spent 6 years in college to get a degree in electronic engineering. And now I'm a CAD technician working for the US Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service witch has nothing to do with my degree.

Me, my father and brother also run cattle on 500 ac of river bottom.
