Work.
I’m currently sitting in a minibus near an industrial port in the middle east, waiting for the crewboat to arrive. It’s taking me on a 10 hour ride for me to board a ship pretty much in the middle of the Persian gulf. I will most likely be on board tomorrow and finish up what I’m doing the same day.
Then it’s a short transfer to another ship nearby where the same job awaits.
If timing works out I will head back to shore on Sunday, arriving very early Monday. Then it’s a few days of chill before my return flight on Thursday.Damn, how’s the pay for a job with those travel requirements?
Pretty decent. Similar to other offshore roles with specialization.
Nice. I used to work in the oilfield in West Texas. Pay was good, I had offshore opportunities for even better pay but I decided against it. Oil industry was not great to work in, in my position anyway.
Recovering from COVID!
Second time getting it, and it’s been so much worse than the first. Hopefully my partner and/or I test negative soon… we really need stuff from the store and haven’t left the house in more than a week!
Family coming over for lunch and I’m doing a (variation on) porcetta. I’ve got a lovely piece of pork belly which has been airdrying in the fridge since yesterday morning. Should be cracking crackling. If the weather holds I’ll do it on the rotisserie on my Kamado Joe.
If you like a barbecue (or a barbie, bbq, or braai) come and join us at Cooking With Fire. We need more regular posters!
Friend of a friend’s basement flooded so friend and I are gonna go help demo and see how far we get on putting it back together. Sunday will be for soccer and gaming and general lethargy
