    I nterviewed with Baker Hughes INTEQ, got the job BTW, and they asked me the following......

    "When you say you will do everything that can possibly done to getdirectional drilling equipment up
    and working, what do you mean? Do you violate safety procedures that are inplace or violate JSAs?"

    My answer was simple, "Without violating any established safety rules or potential violation to create
    a new safety rule/issue, I would go back a few steps to when the issue was not an issue and retry several
    things. Sometimes things happen due to PFM (Pure F*cking Magic) and if you go back a few steps sometimes
    things will come back online or start working again." Electricians will understand what I mean by this.

    I couldnt beleive they asked this as it to me is a question that was a set up by the retard that asked it.
    That guy ended up being my boss, I was not excited of his lack of knowledge of directional drilling and field experience.


    Also in the same interview they asked me, "Are you ok with traveling and being gone?"
    I was switching from an MWD to a DD and it involves being gone the exact same amount of time.

    I didnt stay with them for to long as I didnt like how the leadership was.

    Time for this thread to be bumped again. We have new members with new experiences and members who need work.

    I just read this..... Try nearly 10 months. Then get told "No thanks" because of a MySpace page post from 2005 and that hasn't had any activity in 8 years.

    For the record, the agency was concerned about my ability to keep my temper...

    5 years with a Sheriff's Office.
    No arrests, ever.
    No drug use.
    No alcohol use.
    No school issues.
    CCW.
    FBI clearance.
    Favorable Federal Background Investigation.
    4 favorable polygraphs.
    2 favorable voice stress analysis tests.

    Yet, a MySpace rant from 2005 overshadowed all of that.

    And yes, the MySpace page is gone now.

    They are never gone. A person can still pull up closed accounts if you know how.

    That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.

    Take it from me, they can be resurrected. MySpace itself isn't the only place where the information is stored.

    Nope. Just putting it out there for people like yourself and Ronin, who put unfiltered thoughts out into the vastness of the internet. There is a chance if the background investigator is any good, that they might come back to bite you in the ass.

    I'm not worried about it now. Got my email from the feds the other day..... Everything cleared favorably.
