I appogize for not being here more but we had poor internet connections most of the time I was in the camps , probably 1/2 the time I couldn`t connect at all , the rest of the time ti would take hours to veiw a few emails & look after banking !!
It was different , definatly changed a lot since I was working in the camps 14+ years ago , safety is way tighter now , we had no close calls , put over 10,000 miles on in 9 weeks , missed a lot of meals & worked a lot of hours , the people I worked with were great , can`t say the same about the boss as usual . It was definatly nowhere near as bad as i imagined it would be , Most of the work could be done in some sembalance of warmth & if not you could go warm up as needed , we were not subjected to being outside for hours at a time in -30 or colder temps . Got to spend some time with Ken / 70 383 SE while I was there which was cool . The Pay is great & there is nothing to spend $$ on , everything is provided . Would I do it again , yes , I would prefer to work in a warm climate or overseas of course . The next thing is relocating to Panama , I did have a mechanic job lined up in Lybia starting in April as the next challenge but obviously that job will not be happening , I will stay in contact with them & see if they have work elsewhere worldwide .
