If I want. They also provide housing. They give you 40$ a day to cover gas and food while you are on the rig.

i have been trying to leave for years, job hunting, interviews, the works

every single opportunity that i have gotten has been shattered by something coming up or an influence in my life that told me to not do it

thats why i am going back to school in july
