@TechRaiderRider here's one you can tell the boys.

What's the three questions you have to answer correctly in order to become a journeyman roughneck?

1. What color is an orange.
2. How many be ers are in a 6pk.
3. When's payday.

What I've learned over the years ... you can tell Texans on their way up north by the way they dress. New Tony Lamas, pressed western shirt, starched jeans and hair shorter than new cut hay. Okies on the other hand wear beat up Justins otherwise they dress the same. Then you have your Louisiana hands who don't bother seeing a barber, tennis shoes and an old t-shirt ... something akin to how we dress up here. Maybe @TechRaiderRider can confirm.

Can confirm on behalf of all Okies that this is our style

And goodbye drill rig as in the mast is bent like a mofo. This has to be costly.

How'd that happen?

Pulling up more weight than what the mast is rated for. Heads are going to roll for this one.

Thanks to the x-ray techs telling the project supervisor to go fvck himself, our crew might be out of a job and replaced by a smart pig.

Must have been a metallurgy screw up. I'm sure that rig was triple checked and scanned before it was ever raised. That, or y'all got a saboteur.

Sabotage by environmentalists?

Don’t call me to fix shit like that. I’m too busy with others fuck ups right now.

The only fix for that rig is a new mast.

Did you finally get away from the heathens? Or just a bunch of new heathens?

The rig crew will be flying out after the inspections / investigation followed by getting the mast down. Meanwhile I find out if we're coming back after our hitch is up Tuesday. If not, I'm fixing to stop by their Anchorage office and raise holy hell after I drug up from Red Dog for this gig which was supposed to be six two week hitches.

suspect RDMO,
and come back later
with another rig -

I was at Red Dog mine which is just north of Kotzebue on that map but like an idiot I drug up for this job at Badami oil field which is just east of Prudhoe Bay .. so me and septimus are about dead even as far as being north is concerned.
