He knows it won't be easy. He’s shooting for a wireline job, a position that will keep him largely out of the cold, while he uses a computer to slip measuring devices deep inside the oil wells.Wireline jobs start at about $120,000 a year and companies prefer applicants with no experience so they can train them from scratch themselves.While there I heard one wireline operator say he’d just gotten off work after 56 hours. Every eight hours is a standard rate of pay and every other hour up to 24 is overtime. The multi-day shifts each work like that, with operators taking breaks and resting when they can.56 часов без отдыха. Вот и отрезанные пальцы и всё остальное.А парень только мечтает. И ходит без работы.
