Irishman,
Thanks a million for all that you've contributed here! More thorough first-hand information in this field doesn't exist, I've searched. I'm polishing up my resume & cover letter to shoot out to DD companies next week applying for MWD field engineer here in Texas. A couple of questions for ya:
- Is there always internet access for MWD and can I connect my personal laptop to do reading/research on?
- "10 minutes work in the last 6 hours." What percentage of the time would you say that it's been that easy going?
- How does food work for you there? Do you always have a full kitchen in the portable building you stay in? Do they bring food to you?
I think that as long as I have internet, I can keep myself occupied. I hear sometimes you get satellite TV, yeah? I hate mainstream TV, but enjoy premium movie channels sometimes. I used to hack FTA receivers to get over 1000 channels including free PPV & porn, but nowadays internet access is required to share keys; we'd probably be a hero in the field if we set that up!
ps, I fucking cannot stand country music, I pray my coworkers don't blast that shit.
