Hey Don/Shar-just went through the whole fracking and sand truck deal plus we threw in a rig move! Significant other is taking time off for personal issues, so I am looking for solo work in the interim. Hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction.


Mark, GGS has at least a couple of solo gate guards that I know of. One man took over our old gate a couple of months ago when we moved to the new location. Each job would be 3-5 days while the rig was moving and would be little or no night traffic.
Sorry to hear about Missy. Hope she is feeling better real soon.

Thank you for the kind thoughts. I'll check with GGS.

Mark,
Don't call or go to the Carrizo Springs yard. Go to the Whitsett yard and speak directly with Jamie, you will have a better chance that way.

Interesting stuff about fracking back east. I believe they are friends of the spotted owl (-:

I will not be able to reply to this post as I have no internet. I wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts and help. I have found short term employment with Site Watch. I have someone checking out other possibilties, too. I really like this little community. BTW Missy will be back 2nd week of June!

Betsy talked to GGS today and they are in need of gate guards to cover existing gates. Today, they are down at least one gate and by June, with the known departures, they are going to be hurting. If anyone wants a guaranteed job, now is the time to arrive and get your feet wet, but be prepared for the Texas summer. I have talked to several that normally return in Oct/Nov and they are coming back early this year, just to make sure they have a job for the winter. Everyone we talk to are very concerned about the economy this fall and their financial well being.

Cole said to give him a call, when we were ready to close this gate and he would have a gate for us. We are still considering the offer. The other company we plan on contacting is C & K Rentals in Cuero, which has a very good reputation among their employees.
