Re: College Station/Bryan Roll call
It's going well. I'm on my week off. I work 4 weeks and get the 5th totally off. I approve! I'm moving into a house starting tomorrow. I'm getting really tired of the parents' place. My friend and I are renting his aunt's house, 3 bdrm, 2 car garage, big backyard with a covered patio for $700/mth total. In a pretty good neighborhood too. I'm excited. Finally be out on my own for good!

ive been working for a month or maby a month and a half now. I like it.
its just normal 8-5 (or 7-4 or whatever you want really). its very laid back and a nice work place. i will be going offshore in september with my project.
when offshore you get an extra 100 bucks a day and if your out over weekends you get to add those days to your vacation time.
what im doing is basicly project management. im putting togeather the instilation manual for the project and working with other companies (FMC, weatherford, KerrMcGee, J P Kenny, OPE, etc)
there are alot of other aggies with these other companies. I held a meetign the other week and there were 8-10 people there and half were aggies.

The 12 hour days are offset by the fact that we work 4 days. So after all is added up we work an avg of 41 or so hours/wk.Man that was rough to write out. Good luck figuring it out.
Your job sounds pretty badass. Getting to go out and see a bunch of stuff and also meeting a lot of different people. Congrats.
