that ain't a gravy train job is it, I use to do oil and gas measurement on land and off shore, the good thing with off shore is when you are done you get to sit, eat and get paid till they decide to move you around

Stupid easy....there are several other methods of testing that are more in detail but the company I work for mainly does xray. Hardest thing so far has been training my eyes to adapt to the dark rooms when processing the film. Haha....looking forward to going offshore and making some chedda.

Yeah I could see how the cameras could get heavy going up stairs. If that is as physical as the job gets that is right up my alley.

X-ray is a great way to get your foot in the door but every chance you get to learn something else about the field make sure you pay attention. There is more money in UT and its not as dangerous.

A good backpack that you can haul tools and equipment in is very nice offshore, I had a small bag for cloths and all my tools and electronics in a backpack.
