Depends how much you consider is "killing the pig".

Somehow, I don't think a Perth Fireman is in the same league as a driller, especially when you take tax into consideration. Rig people usually don't pay any.......

So true Sir Burr,

But Im not sitting out in the middle of the ocean or a desert for weeks at a time doing fly in fly out work away from family, friends and civilization either.

Thats the only reason you guys get the big money, but you pay a price for that don't you.

Us Perth firefighters are doing very nicely thank you and Ill just keep driving around in my fire engine and coming home at night whilst you are thinking about getting home to your family but cannot.
