Expect to work long hours, chain 5 times a shift, able to be outside(at night or day) on your own, watch out for the H2S gas, make sure all valves and connections are good and don't make any spills.

The most stressful, was having a list to get done. Sometimes, other drivers were still out, I would call and ask for help. If noone was out, you would have to get it done. Or customer would find another trucking company. I was in the oil patch for 15 years. I've spent long hours getting the job done.

They never got mad at me. Usually just jokes. I shrugged my shoulders and went to work. They never sounded threatening. Just when they joked about the wrong thing. Yeah, I got mad, but, the boss at the time never got mad at me or yelled. I went to school with the kid, back in the day
