Currently, the oil companies are spending $3B - $4B a year developing new infrastructure on the North Slope. Good people are hard to find. It's hard to believe, but they are bunking translators up there because that where they can get people.

If the AK LNG line goes (which might be a 50:50 thing now, best it's ever been), there will be a huge boom.

Don't know, but with the OT, it's likely pretty substantial.

I know a few guys who have been working the oil fields in the Bakken Formation. From what they've told me, its very very lucrative, but not many last for long. Hard, dirty and relentless work. Especially during a boom. Only 1 of the 6 people i know, made it more than 10 months, and he stayed for 18. Made shit loads of money, but came back fucking worthless and blew every last dime. That was in the North Dakota area. I can only imagine the extra difficulties working in Alaska.

Maybe when i was in my early 20s, i could of made it a year, but now? Fuck that, I'm about 20 years past that opportunity. I get pissy when i have to work 5 days in a row!

This is different work from what you see on "Landman". Mostly all construction. A different mindset.

Yup, but after 3 weeks working 12 hr days, ya get that stare on your face and you become a safety hazard. The statistics say safety incidents go up after 14 days, but after 21 days they skyrocket.

Oh yes. I assume swing shifts make it worse.
People get complacent

Sometimes it sucks that I have to share the laundry room.

We have 4 adults living here and it still isn't too bad. I try not to leave my clothes until the last minute. Like now, my light color shirts needs washed but I'm not going anywhere soon so I'm open to washing anytime really.
