Job security?
Yea I used to work on Helos in Austin, But I didnt liek it there much after I got back from over there and I grew up out here in WTX, I miss flying but love it out here no matter what the weather is like.
ha yea i work at salt creek as a lease operator, im working nights this hitch so im freezing my *** off right now!!! it hasnt really slowed down for us but it hasnt been booming like it was in july either.....im actually trying to find another job working more in the field again, i broke out running sub pumps and roughnecked for awhile....actually kinda miss it ya know...lol....good to hear halliburton is still doing ok tho
Its been a while since did any work there. Salt creek was a cool lease. I did some work up in Post on a brown lease last and it was Fn cold! Bought a cow from a dude off of 208 just north of fm 1611. I liked doing work in Snyder, just dont like the American hotel or the spanish inn beer policy. Oh well there Olies at least. Hopefully be back there next month after these Chevron wells. BigSprings has strange folk.
The only job security is created by:
1. Good technical (engineering, IT, etc) skills + being reliable
2. Great sales track record + bein reliable
3. Creating your own job by owning your own business
These are the only ways I have consistently seen over the last 15 years to make someone almost 100% secure. Not wealthy always, but almost always secure. This also requires financial prudence and discipline to work.

True or not, I really enjoy reading that. I've been in IT for Exxon since '95 and things appear stable for us. With that said, I really hope you guys don't get a "Looking for Work" message from me later this week..
Never know I guess..
