Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
I do directional work for drilling rigs and pretty much live on them. I'd do wells from start to finish, some last over 90 days, 30 minimum.
Anyway, he's right. In my job you get your own trailer and room. But you're sometimes 50 feet from the drilling rig. And oil rigs are Hella loud, like some parts you can't go in unless you have ear protection. So while on location it's constant noise from the rig, but something about the vibration and noise will make you sleep like a baby it's a very consistent sound, never stops and I sleep like a baby. It's like brown noise. When I come home I can't sleep cause I live in the country and it's DEAD quiet
Doesn't that hurt the whales? Whales use sound to see, they can't eat or communicate if it's too noisy.
I only do land work, not enough money could put me on a deep sea rig.
Cows don't seem to mind much tho
Man this is so true. Once one gets used to a constant hum, it’s basically impossible to go back. If it’s silent I literally cannot sleep and I’ve been away from the hum for at least a decade
