Training

Here's some pictures from my training last week. For the most part I will be sitting in a metal box looking at the computer screen as shown in the first picture. Every now and then I will be going up on the rig floor. The second picture is of the rig we went to look at during training that is over in the Atascocita area. That would have been a great rig to work on since it's so close.





I got the call this morning at about 7:45 for work. I'll be headed to a rig near Coushatta, Louisiana and have no idea how long I'll be there. Hopefully only about 2 weeks. But of course the longer I'm there the more money I make and I do hit an ovetime bonus after 18 days. So I won't be able to make the family pictures this weekend unless this is a ridiculously short drill. I think I should have decent cell service since I'm only a few miles outside of Coushatta which I would think would have good service because of the casinos. I'm going to try and update as often as I can and will get some more pictures once I get out there to try and give y'all a better idea of how things are laid out. As of now my free/down time will be filled with learning the job and reading a bunch of books.
