"The best part of my job is meeting new people and learning new technology. Overall in my line of work I don't get to see my family a whole lot, and usually when your C.O. tells you about a job to go to it doesn't matter what you are doing at that time, it is expected of you to be there when asked."

"I love the ability to steer a drill bit up to 4 miles underground. I also enjoy providing a specialized service to the client. It can be a challenge at time dealing with geology not knowing where you are at. It can be a challenge if you are a family person. The time you spend away can be very hard."
