The company? It's Miller Pipeline. Owned by Vectren. I'm a pretty constant employee since they are the only company that keeps me within 3-4 hours of the house. What's your trade, if you don't mind me asking?

BTW, great pics guys. Glad I'm not the only one that thinks it's interesting to see other's watches while they're working :)

And back at home, playing with the .22 (such an accurate plinker) - GMT IIc that I just got from MR, set to 3 time zones - Pennsylvania, Alaska, and Angola -

I will try to snap a picture the next time I go on an Oil Rig visit, I sadly spend all my time in front of a computer in my office!

We'll be welding tomorrow. I'm going to try to take a couple of pics during. Unfortunately it'll just be my PO. I'm not going to wear the SA, DSSD, or my ROO in the ditch.
Seems like most of the guys are in law, and IT/Computer related fields. I always wondered about our demographic.
Good to see a few manual laborers in the bunch, too. Pipelining may not be glorious, but it's the easiest way to make great money sitting on my ass 3/4 of the time, and the rest of the time I'm doing my part in helping the country (when I got out of the ARMY I started to feel selfish, and of little worth to society until I found this), and build something very large in scale that's fulfilling at the end of the day.

Anyway, here's a pic of my new watchbox that I use to keep my watches in when I travel, so that this post isn't naked.

BTW, that's the wife's J12, not mine. ;) lol

Just a pic while I was waiting for the gas company to OK us cutting out a piece of pipe. Welding rigs, water tanker, and track hoe in the background.

Unfortunately, a watch would just be in my way at work. Besides, I'm not the kind of guy who smashes reps with hammers. :lolcina:

Last day on a job that we've been doing that's literally right around the corner from my house. Next job can be anywhere in a 4 hour radius. Unfortunately I'm getting laid off for a few weeks. Hopefully not for too long.
