depends on the person

for me ...I love offshore and 7 on 7 off...

you work 1/2 the year and home the other half
you make the good money only working half the time

Down falls
you miss things like kids baseball games, dances, etc
some holidays
and your with guys for 7 days in close quarters


Once you work for a company long enough you will have vacation time which you can knock off some weeks working...instead of working 26 weeks a year you only work 25,24,23

I have been with my company going on 14 years and if I wanted to use all my vacation I would only have to work 21 weeks a year
