Greenauto Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 I feel for ya PAG Mate! Just away to start work as a Senior TA for CAN at the end of the month, so there's a chance I'll be going offshore a bit once trained up. Then in the grander scale of things may get to Inspection Engineer status. So is the money not as good as everyone makes it out to be? I know it must be daunting but i guess you've just got to look forward to when your back on shore again. Can't imagine havin all that time when your back to fiddle with the Sup!

AlanM Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 I was offshore for 12 years, contract work so anything up to 16 hours a day. Don't think the money is any better now than then (but it was fantastic money in the 80's and early 90's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
