low pay, long hours

Operator assistant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Plenty of opportunity for hours as they always have jobs running in west Texas. Opportunity for advancement for hard workers.

Cons

Very low pay, no one wants to get to know you until you prove you will stay with them for awhile. Takes very long hours to earn any money. Everyone on your crew has a different deal. Some are getting hotels and meals while others are expected to relocate on their own.
