Thinking of applying for a job there. Work has slowed here. There's work just not enough.

Thanks guys

Been there several times. Personally, I wouldn't want to live there but it is a booming town. One of the partners here grew up in Midland back in the 50's and loves it.

1 word DESSERT. Spent a month in a travel trailer working there in a town called No Trees. Very apt description.

Corpus is OK. I assume your in the oil/gas industry. Where are you now?

I've been out of it for a few years. I'm out of fort smith arkansas. Working for a general contractor

You in the business?

There might be work, but that's about it. I'd have to be gettin paid a whole hell of a lot on relatively short term employment to live in midland/Odessa.

Not enough for me to move there on a permanent basis.

You're used to trees and water, right? Don't have much of either out there.

No kidding?

I need trees and water. Last rig I was on was out in the panhandle of Oklahoma. Ugly. Ugly. Ugly. Can't do that again.

I knew what you meant. No worries.

They are a bunch of bored house wives.
