Had some good times in South La....especially on those hurricane evacuations! Rotating or shiftwork schedule is the only way to go.

I've been trying to get in the plants as an operator my-self!! I worked turnarounds for 3yrs before getting in production! I worked for grasso, greystar ( in Garden City for Conoco) under Barry Holley... (damn right they're cheap!). I now work for Island on the Apache contract... its not that bad! If you here of any openings in the plants to hesitate to let me know.... I have friends who work for Oxy-chem in Deer Park and a couple of guys that work in Shell but they're all froze when it comes to hiring right now.... The wife wants me off the water and home every night... I wouldn't complain!!!
