Just Got Hired Over the Phone

Company: Ensign Drilling... rig #46


Tomorrow gotta meet someone at a gym to do a pre-employment fitness test/physical (never had to do this before to work on a rig, but watched a video and read testimonial online from people...they said, at most, you lift 100 pounds off the floor...then push/pull a sled with 100lbs or so... then do some cardio with a heart monitor attached to you...intervals 3 minutes cardio, 1 minute rest, then they check your heart rate).


Then I just gotta pass a urine test (easily)...aaand then I go to the drill location and sleep in the man camp tomorrow night


sweeeeet no more living in my car TIME TO STACK DIMES

thats awesome man, good luck and congrats

So is this your shot at one of those $3k plus gigs? cn

yea the drilling rigs all pay 27-28/hour... 12 hour days, 2 weeks on 1 off or 20 days on/10 off, depends on the company. I don't know the specific pay or schedule yet


but yea, should be a little over $3k/week, after taxes

I hope this one works better for you! cn

Sounds great ^^ Yay, monies for you!!! *pops a cork*

You'll ace the physical; if I can lift 150 you can swing 100!

So glad you got it after how unhappy you sounded the other day xx

Let us know how that goes, sounds like hard work but great money

Awesome news!!! Congrats!!!!

thanks everybody

That's great man. Always thought I would enjoy working on a rig.
