Yes I have not posted on here for a long time. Guess it is about time to write something.
Work has been very slow and I have not worked much all summer. I did get called for a job here locally but worked only a few days before we were told the outage was going to be pushed back for a week and a half. Out of the twenty or so guys out there only seven were chosen to work until the three week outage would start. They told us we could wait for the job to start or take a layoff. I was one of the few who took the layoff. I knew I was high on the out of work list so I figured I could get called back if nothing else popped up. Well after being offered a job up at st clair I got a call to go to Marathon Oil (about 6 miles from my house)for a job that had been delayed for months. I was one of six that were called and will be working 4-10's for what may be a long time. I have always perferred 40 hour jobs over overtime jobs so this job is an unexpected blessing. Looking forward to entering my new mission field on Monday. I will keep you posted on how it goes.
