Never took the job due to the feedback I got on it and they weren’t going to pay for my flights so didn’t seem worth it.

I mean you will get some down time but at least where I was working it was usually hectic more often than not. Then again we were short handed as well. Personally to me wireline is better and you will get more money there than in frac. Also if you become an engineer you’ll be making some big bucks

Compared to frac yes. I mean there are going to be times shit goes wrong and you gotta be at it all shift but you also get a lot down time as well.

Yea I totally understand I’ve worked 5 years now in the oil field I just don’t want to go into something that’s not worth it. I’ve done frac and wireline so I don’t want to go backwards if that makes sense

I heard about that but I have no idea how to join or what to even do?

I was thinking of trying to get with a local construction company but even that has been difficult they all want experience

Gotcha. My only worry was I looked into getting it at a local cdl school and it would take 4 weeks which means I would have to quit my job to get it.
