Over the years living in Thailand I have made many friends and I must say of recent years most of my drinking buddies work in the very lucrative Oil and Gas industry.
They all seem very enthusiastic about their choice of employment although the job does take them far away from their families for sometimes months on end.
I personally could not take being away from my wife and children for that duration and I don't believe it would be easy for them either.
My question is, and the main purpose of this thread is to ask some of the lads here who work in this field is it really that easy in spite of the fact a lot of you make over 1,000 dollars a day?
If you can share your experience with us it may help others who are considering the same move (as there seems to be a lot of work available now) to make their decision based upon real life experience.
Thanks in advance for your honest replies.
