  • thats indian music shithead

  • @LeoBurns728 Thats what she said! Ha

  • Why would you work 80 hr weeks for only 10 bucks an hour? really! We pay our driller assitants $28/hr plus bonus. our drillers are at $34-40/hr.

    Put a diverter on that rig! How can you stand in that mess!

  • Whats with this crappy arab shit music?

  • I think I'd build some grates on that Rig & have a diverter. It is sometimes very nice keeps you not so bent over the table area though. Hopefully Drilling hasn't ceased for everyone? Been drilling now for 14 yrs and now it looks like I might be venturing to another career??

  • Those poor guys, Having to stand on the ground like that. I work around Speed star 30K and IR T-3s and we have stands on them.

  • man, i did this shit for 4 yrs. good money but can be hard work. the owner of the company was screwing me on pay, so i did somthing diff. thinking about maybe doing it again.

  • ''but they have come in handy a few times''. but then you dont wear them all the time. Smart buddy!

  • well i get paid 10 dollars an hour but we're working 80 hour weeks. we also do geo thermal so that might be a whole other show completely, but its still drilling. the hard hats are annoying as all hell to wear (we take them off when we can) but they have come in handy a few times. for example it saved my buddyes life when the cable on the winch snapped and dropped a rod. the cable cracked his hard hat.

    drilling is good but its dangerous, i know a few drillers who only have 7 or 8 fingers left

  • They go through bedrock in mexico by hand its right here on youtube. The just pick axe the rock and break it up and use a pully and bucket to pull it up. Pretty simple plan but back breaking work. I imagine its a job that would take 2 american men 4-5 months to pull off for a 30 foot well. But hey if you dont have 10-20,000 and you need water or have dreams of cheap off grid property than its not a bad idea
