Thread regarding Diamond Offshore Drilling Inc. layoffs

Our Problem

If anyone wants to know whats wrong in the oil field, just read the posts on this site.. This is what happens when you give uneducated people jobs that pay way to much. These back woods, swamp dwelling, moron, idiots can not have a intelligent conversation about anything that does not involve guns, blowing something up or poking a hole in the ground. As long as they have the money to buy off road toys and new pick up trucks to "Ride On" they are not interested in talking about anything else. As for the people in the office, the "Rig Hands" need to realize that without those "Yankees" and "Foreigners" up there in the office the rigs would not be working...therefore you would not have a job.

Says the oilfield wife, my husband studies how to do his job. This just goes to show each Diamond rig hires idiots from the same town and it becomes a family instead of a drilling rig. People that works hard and smart but don't know the idiot from the small town in the swamps for the hole in the wall bar...will never get a job at Diamond Drilling.

true story, I read to my husband some of these same type comments, because you know it's easy to criticize oil workers WITH YOUR TANK FULL, when I told him the comments about oil workers I had read, he said they were the type of people who would not carry their candy assxs out there, but were jealous of real men and women who would, and that only pussxxx talk like they do

Yeah, seems to me most of the people complaining about rig hands are the ones who couldn't handle working with their hands other than pecking on a keyboard. They wouldn't know a hard days work is it slapped them in the face.

a.sims, well said. Thank you for speaking up for people like my self. I am a steel buyer, I don't carry a gun nor do I drive 4x4 truck. But I do drive a 2014 car, I do own a four wheeler and I do ride frequently. I too make good money with just a high school diploma. Shame on Anonymous81704, they need to put on their big girl panties and get off this web site.

Thank you Anonymous 81704. I'm sure your commet was written for no more than a mere reaction. Although, I'm not sure if any "Backwoods gun toting ,4x4 driving ,swamp dwelling morons", can even read it. Don't know why you wasted your time posting or even reading about these men that is absolutely beneath such a superior creature. Except, to put someone down. Who are you to sterotype anyone.

Let me tell you about these "idiots". I've been married to one of them for 26 years. I see a man that has missed half of his children now our grandchildren lives. In order to provide a better life for his family. Tell me why you work everyday. Number one reason to make money. Why hate on someone because they don't have college ed. Some may not have high school. Oh yea they made 100,000-300,000 a year.and it pisses you off . They are not sitting at the house taking advantage of the welfare system. They are out working jobs that take HEART and a strong back. They make a living with their hands as well as their hearts. These men are well qualified to do there job. They spend their off time at home going to schools in order to master their craft. I've seen what my husband has to learn. Its very complexed. Maybe it doesn't have the fancy seal you have on your diploma. But, they've got the best seal of all. The knowledge of what it is to do a hard days work in order to provide for their families. And if they want to buy themselves "one of them their Guns or 4 wheel drives "so be it they made the money .

Haven't you heard ...OPEC...12 nations that set the production? Haven't you heard about all the shale production here in the states that have increased the amount of oil on the market? Haven't you heard about the oil glut that is driving prices down? I really don't think gun toting, big toys and bigger trucks are contributing to this downtown. It might now be affecting people's lifestyles as those bills keep coming in and that paycheck is now gone. If the oilfield workers haven't learned to save, this will be a big lesson to them.

Yankees in the offices? Really ? I know a lot of them on the rigs too. The oil industry is a cluster of folks from every state and nation ....which makes it a really unique experience to work with everyone.

I can't imagine a post like yours done for any other reason then to watch for an explosion of protest. Grow up a little and come back with your big boy pants on.
