My High School History teacher left halfway through the year last year to go and work on the rigs as a cabin attendant, so she does the sheets and laundry etc. She was the coolest person I know. Said the actual work was quite dull and uninteresting, but she loved the 2 weeks on, 2 off schedule, and the general day to day life of working on the rigs. Although this was in Scotland, so she worked out in he North Sea, so I'm not sure how that would compare to where you work. I'm assuming far far colder.

Also, do oil rig workers in the States get good pay? I live in Aberdeen over here (oil capital of Europe) and everyone works in oil, and gets paid insane amounts, regardless of skills or qualifications. Manual labourers get something like £30k in their first year out of school (18/19 years old), and I know so many people on stupidly high salaries for surprisingly normal jobs on the rigs.

Sorry for the long post haha!

For some reason, I can't see your face without thinking "that's Fill Werrell'. How do I stop this?

Yeah, she's late 40's and just fancied a change. When she comes back onshore, her and her husband go away skiing in Austria or skydiving in Italy etc.
