I love these kind of videos ! You can always make other series like there about other stuff

[@MrAllen2151]

I worked in oilfield 10 years on a rig and yes you are right it takes time to move up. You will work on rig floor for years before you get the chance to move up to next position. I was 19 when I first started and in 3 years I was a hydraulic tong operator but I had to work my shift and others shifts to get that.

[@troycummings2501]

[@slieza9113]

Im young and really hoping to get into labor hand work

[@darlantro]

Indeed.com and Glassdoor.com are decent website for jobs, search for 'pipeline jobs Texas', things like that. Can see who has jobs available and can call them up or send them a message to see if they will hire someone green who wants to learn.

[@kaziwill]

Working off the clock is illegal at both the state and federal level. If an employer requires that for moving up, that company needs reported.

[@01ndsl]

Been watching awhile very interesting been operating sense being able to abtane driving license starting out family installing septic tanks to clearing residential property via backhoe / trackhoe’s and obtaining CDL driving rock trucks Highway road dev. out of quarries teenage to early 20’s.

[@la4torrey112]

Is labor hand and floor hand the same ?

Degrees don’t mean shit in an oil field.

[@syedinayathulla4951]

I’m currently going to graduate with a bachelors degree in petroleum engineering in May from India. Could you please tell me how can I be a directional driller with a college degree

[@curtissmith9586]

Syed Inayathulla no it’s all about experience

[@syedinayathulla4951]

Curtis Smith sir can I have a similar career opportunity and pay similar to “beauy knows”if I choose to live in Canada in Alberta

[@LifeWithTheLords]

Keep it real bro…getting promoted on pipeline jobs is 75% who u know, not what you know. You didnt say it but i’d bet a paycheck thats how u got in a hoe seat as soon as u did lol. But having experience and learning as much as u can and being able to do shit without your foreman babysitting does go along ways with good bosses tho! But hell, I pretty much broke out operating the same way u did so i aint talkin shit lol. i got in a seat mid job cuz a guy got run off and my foreman knew i could run a hoe decently and wanted more experience and offered me the seat but i wouldnt get the raise with it yet. I jumped at the opportunity cuz i could run a hoe good enough but i knew i still had alot of learning to do about “operating” a hoe if ya know what i mean. Had alot of laborhands say i was crazy or stupid for lettin em play me, getting me to operate without operater’s pay and shit, And i’d just say “In 3 or 4 years, when you’re freezing your ass off in Ohio or some shit mid January, still throwing skids, jealous cuz u cant sit in the heat like the operator that just passed by…that mentality and attitude is gonna be the reason why!” 😂

[@rauljramon]
