[QUOTE="Velva_zv21, post: 198874, member: 5600"] Ya you make 100,000 a year but some people don't realize the hours you put in to make that money and the schedule you have, when I was part of a frac crew it was 100 hours in 5 days and then 2 days off.... and switched between 5 days of nights and then 5 days of day shift..... So your first day off was literally sleeping for 24 hours straight and then getting your body transitioned for the next week wether it be day or night shift..... most every week we hit overtime on our 3rd day of the week about 3 hours into the shift.....I started out on sand and then went into chems after a week of sand and did that for a year.... reason I quit was it was getting way too unsafe for me and a couple of my buddies followed after me.... it's a good way to make allot of money really fast but not a lifestyle for me....I quit frac and drove redi- mix truck for strata for 6 years before getting the job I have now and i like my current lifestyle.... only way I'd go back to frac is if I got laid off and it was the last job I had to choose from [/QUOTE]
