General Discussion Area / Career advice - what to do now?
« on: 27 December 2014, 16:30:29 »
I've been working as land rig (onshore) electrician for 8 yrs now and company management forgot me all the times when salary was rising or we got a good contract in the Near East, I must have stayed everytime at home as "the number one spare" they said. Well, nowadays we seem to be being less'n less day by day and today this process could off to a final stage as my rig manager gave me a call offering me a deputy chief electrician position because the engineer who owned this, suddenly did quit. I have no illusions about this situation and know well, that it is just a temporary state that takes not too long. Plus I have candidated to a Midlle East drilling company for a rig electrician position in the end of October as I was really not satisfyed in my actual role and salary. Needless to say in Abu Dhabi possible I will get six times money to Hungarian one not to mention other benefits...Some electrician guy from Croatia and Poland who also had been on the interview sent me a mail that they got job visa in normal post letter and I also have a warning post card to take a confidental letter in the nearest post office... To be a Chief Electrician here a bit better than to work somewhere else, the money is not so good though...

What the hell to do?  ???

Hi all,

my father in law told me this about the nickname of one of his colleagues, whos nickname is "The child" . Well, when this guy used to be ten yrs old he'd got really big size foot that was actually 45. (For comparising my size now is 42 that counts average) Once his mother tried to buy to him a pair of shoes and for the question of seller about the proper size she answered " What size? A child size, of course."   ;D

Do you have a good story about origin of a nick?

Merry Christmas anyway!

Laszlo, Hungary

That might be ::)  really strange still, sounds like a really smart system :/ Wonder if one could retrofit that by jumping power from rad fans power suply ::) ::) ::)

It is possible mate absolutely, but if you did it with using two fuses you have no chance to loose two cooler elements in case of one faulty fuse.  :) Must admit I'm not sure of being two fuses in manufactured cars at all...  :-\

After accurate checking (might be some deposit inside) I would cut connector off, I bought my car without them, they certainly were cut off by previous owner, I am using no leaking at all. My car is 19 yrs old still in good condition.  :y

Good luck with it mate!  :)

Just got a call from Quatar with a new job opportunity and the other side of line was a guy with very strange dialect (arabic maybe) I'm being not native speaker so this interview was a real pain and became a nightmare soon when the guy told me "not a big dildo???  Errmm....What the hell... :-\ after some question turned out that he told me "not a big deal though" ...  ;D

Have you ever been to similar situation during a job interview?  :)

Not involved with the new railway project perhaps?

I don't know, they offered me a land rig electrician position for almost nothing money (70  USD per day) but in the Near East everything is possible.
70 USD and 56 days on / 28 days off rotation is not the best though unless you are from Indonesia or some African country where the work-life balance means nothing.
