Edit to the edit: As of 1630 I am now no longer on call. I will be flying out from the edmonton private flight centre to fort nelson tomorrow at 3pm. Sounds like the senior operator on my shift is gonna be an ass...but at least it'll just be for one job...so 7-10 days, give or take.
More to come when I get back from the folks for dinner.
EDIT: Since I'm an attention whore at heart, I'm not gonna clear this entry until tomorrow...thanks for the birthday wishes everyone! The party last night fucking rocked, and good times were had by all
Ok...so i'm still here....and while it's making the prospects for me being in town for the monster birthday bash, it also means more days of me being broke
So what have I done in the meantime? Since we're now on stand-by because the drilling rig has delayed their underbalanced start, I've sat beside the motherfucking phone for 4 fucking days waiting now for my supervisor (note: no longer waiting on my boss) to say "They need us NOW...be on the plane tomorrow at 8am." Grr.
Another day is another day, I guess...
*le sigh*
ciao

I know that it's for the best, but my heart is sad when you leave town.
