about two months ago the company I was working for decided that is was time to cut head count...42 people...luckily my manager figured out a way to keep me on the payroll as I found out the following day after the layoffs that I was on the chopping block...needless to say I was speechless because of the amount of revenue that I produce each year and my terribly low salary for the work I did....it didn't make sense to me...it bought me enough time to find another job out of oil and gas completely. I have been at my new job for a week and am already so greatful to be out of the industry. I pray that something turns around quick for all of you guys and gals still in it.

Im a mud engineer and so far have made it. There were 8-10 guys let go in the east TX/N. LA division and we have taken some paycut on our dayrate. As of wednesday I was transferred to OKC division and will be starting a high profile job for Devon. Spud meeting tomorrow! While it sucks to have to make the drive Im thankful I was handpicked to do it. Time to make a hand boys and lets keep praying for a turnaround and a call back for our other brothers that are at home.
