Sittin' on a Forest Oil gate way out west just outside of Iraan,TX. Over an inch of rain today which is unusual (high desert of the Edwards Plateau),struggled to reach 42 degrees, wind howling out of the north at 20 and 4" of snow just west of us. It is still raining with big ol' wet snowflakes....
Check out the Gate Guard forum in my sig line. Lots of good activity and info there for gate guards new and old.

It pays to do some due diligence on these gate guard companies. There is a huge demand in the Texas oil fields right now from maids to geologists and new companies are popping up all over.
J&G is hitting every RV forum as well as workcamper news or whatever it is for contractors.
Might want to check further here.....

They have 2 gate guards right now that I know of and they are placing Southwest of San Antono. Right now I figure if they treat you right at the gate and pay timely it would be better than not working at all. There are still people waiting to go to work for GGS they are sitting in RV parks. I heard maybe a week or two yet before Gate Guard has anything, but this is just through the grapevine.

We responded to their ad and were also recommended by some friends that are guards.
It seems they will have jobs opening first of Feb.
We've had no luck with trying to contact Justin @ 512-825-7567 doesn't answer and his voice mail box is full so can't leave a msg.
