DirtyComanche Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 And I'm probably going to be pretty quiet for a while. This was my first day off in about 20 days now. And I'm probably going to do another 2 weeks before I get any more time off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyComanche Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 That's what I've been doing. It's nice. Now only if I didn't actually live at work (crew housing off the side of the hanger) it'd be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oizarod115 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Oizarod has passed you up in posts. :D But seriously, grab a drink, fire up the TV and chill a while. :cheers: haha, i've chilled out from posting so much too, i've been 6-7 day workweeks since mid december and dating multiple chicas. (rough on the pocket) got 2 days off in a row this weekend. first time in 4 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyComanche Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 eesh. how much longer you doin that? Living at work or working constantly? I have to move out of here by the end of next week - and I HOPE I have a place. Working constantly will probably be for a couple more months then I'll be on rotation (yet to be decided, 3 weeks on 2 weeks off is most likely). Unless I take a base position, which might get offered. But I'm not conviced I want to - I'd not work as much (regular hours) but I'd also make a LOT less. I've been working mostly 12 hour days for the 20 on. Kinda leaves a guy burned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Dirty, but just think that when you finally have some time off, you can spend all those newly earned CADs on your rigs. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaterjeep Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 His is a papermill and carpentry on the side, so I'm sure he understands heat as well. Albeit it may not be quite as hot as in the sandbox. Any other questions, feel free to post them, I'm usually in contact with him once a day or so.
