Offshore, work a set schedule and when you off you off, you have to ride a chopper/boat to work, free meals your whole time out there, don't get to sleep with momma at night, you stuck on a platform half the year with people you may not like.
On shore, you will mostly work shiftwork, pay for your meals or pack a lunch, ride your truck to work, work half the year, sleep with momma every night, more freedom, no set schedule when you first start out.
I have a few buddies that work 7-7 and they are home every night/day. They make decent money and get to hunt/fish a lot. One works 7 day, off 7 days, work 7 nights, off 7 and back to 7 days. That's the best schedule you can get IMO
