John --of course you are correct -- the greatest demand for good crews comes from the opposite ends of spectrum -- worst rigs and best rigs --Frank

John, "After the crash in the 1980's lots of roughnecks got laid off and went into other lines of work that were more stable." That's me! Worked W. Texas/E. New Mexico then in California - Belridge, Elk Hills and the areas around Taft. When it looked like Chevron was going to lay me off (I was a technician responsible for the steam generators), I bolted and went back to school in 1983. Would enjoy working in the patch again but I'm too old to turn a wrench, besides sales is alot more fun :) Michael
