[QUOTE="tjones96761, post: 2838706, member: 8955"] I have never read so much BS stacked on top of more BS in my life. I remember why I quit coming on here. I laid off 8 "oilfield" workers today, so I've got a little knowledge on the subject. Oilfield equipment manufacturing, not oil production. Not one of them made over $40k a year. What about the "top brass" making "big money" you ask? They were gone in January 2015, along with half of the mid-level execs. Six months ago cut the other half mid-level execs plus 5 floor level people and 3 office girls. The "top brass" that's left is taking half salaries and working 60+ hours a week just to keep the doors open. Make money now and use it later, ebb and flow, ups and downs, ride out the oilfield, etc... yeah, that money was spent over the last 14 months trying to keep hard workers employed... So enjoy your $1 gas and practice a little empathy for guys that worked 10+ years at the same shop and DIDN'T get any of the benefits of $100 oil. [/QUOTE]
